Hot dip galvanizing the problem of emission control

Abstract

Hot Dip Galvanizing is used extensively throughout industry to protect steel products from environmental corrosion. However, the process of lowering the work into the galvanizing bath, then completely immersing it and finally withdrawing it produces emissions of fine particulate pollutants in the form of a “white cloud” which rises rapidly from the galvanizing bath as a result of the thermal currents.
