Battery Safety Test Exhaust Gas &
Dust Comprehensive Treatment System

Delivered for the battery safety testing laboratory at Guangzhou Customs Huadu Base — a five-stage gradient purification train engineered for instantaneous high-concentration, high-temperature, multi-pollutant exhaust from lithium battery nail-penetration, crush, short-circuit, overcharge and thermal-runaway tests.

Project Overview

The Challenge: Multi-Pollutant, High-Impact Test Exhaust

Battery safety testing (nail penetration, crush, forced short-circuit, overcharge/over-discharge, thermal runaway and fire tests) generates instantaneous exhaust containing:

  • ▪
    Hot flue gas & dust — carbon black, cathode material and metal oxide particles with a wide size distribution
  • ▪
    Corrosive acid gases — HF and traces of HCl from electrolyte decomposition
  • ▪
    VOCs — dimethyl carbonate, ethylene carbonate and other electrolyte vapours with strong odour
  • ▪
    Fine aerosols — sub-micron sticky smoke that causes white plumes and is missed by ordinary dust collectors

A single-process system cannot meet compliance. We engineered a gradient-purification train that removes each pollutant class in sequence, protecting downstream precision equipment:

Compliance TargetResult
Particulate matter≤ 30 mg/m³ · removal ≥ 99%
Acid gas (HF / HCl)removal ≥ 95%
VOCsremoval ≥ 98%
CollectionFully enclosed, negative pressure, zero leakage
Process Design

Five-Stage Gradient Purification Train

Dust first, then de-acidification, then aerosol polishing, and finally deep VOCs destruction — pre-treatment protects the precision stages downstream.

1 · Pulse Baghouse Dust Collector

First defence: intercepts coarse carbon black and metal dust before it can blind the wet stages. Full stainless steel body, PTFE-membrane anti-acid bags, on-line pulse cleaning, hopper + rotary discharge valve + DP monitoring. Efficiency ≥ 99.5% on coarse and medium dust.

2 · Cyclone-Mixed Spray Tower

Cooling + de-acidification in one unit: swirl vanes centrifuge out fine dust while multi-stage alkaline spray (10–15% NaOH + buffer solution) neutralises HF/HCl. Cuts gas temperature from up to 180 °C to below 40 °C. Packing-free design — no blockage risk under sticky, high-load conditions.

3 · Wet Electrostatic Precipitator

Polishing stage for 0.01–10 µm sticky aerosols, electrolyte mist and salt crystals that dry collectors cannot capture. High-voltage field charges particles onto water-flushed collecting plates — self-cleaning, no re-entrainment. Eliminates white plume; removal ≥ 99% of ultra-fine aerosols.

4 · Activated Carbon Adsorption

Three-chamber box with waterproof honeycomb carbon (iodine value ≥ 800 mg/g) — chambers alternate between adsorption and desorption for 24 h non-stop operation. Water-resistant media tolerates the humid post-scrubber stream without crumbling.

5 · RCO Catalytic Combustion

Concentrated VOCs are desorbed and destroyed over a Pt/Pd catalyst at 300–400 °C — no open flame, no NOx — converting organics to CO₂ and H₂O. Plate heat exchanger recovers ≥ 85% of the heat to drive carbon-bed desorption, keeping running cost low.

Auxiliary Systems

Negative-pressure sealed hoods and anti-corrosion ducting, variable-frequency corrosion-resistant centrifugal fan, PLC central control with one-touch start/stop, condition monitoring, fault alarms and data logging.

Safety First

Explosion & Fire Protection — Built In, Not Bolted On

Thermal-runaway tests carry real deflagration risk. The whole train is protected by dedicated safety engineering:

  • ✓
    Flame arresters + explosion vent panels on ducting and every major vessel to release instantaneous deflagration pressure
  • ✓
    RCO multi-loop interlocks — over-temperature / over-pressure auto shutdown, cooling and gas cut-off
  • ✓
    Carbon boxes fitted with fire insulation and emergency spray to prevent heat build-up and self-ignition
  • ✓
    Continuous negative pressure operation — no combustible gas accumulation anywhere in the system
  • ✓
    Wet ESP protection — over-voltage, over-current, short-circuit and water-loss auto cut-off
  • ✓
    PLC data logging of temperature, pressure and fan status for audits and customs compliance records
