California Chemical Scrubber Case Study: Eliminating HCL Emissions with Engineered Fume Control

In this industrial air quality case study, LibertyCES engineered a custom HCL scrubber system in California to eliminate fugitive hydrochloric acid (HCL) emissions. The client, a chemical processing facility, faced serious compliance violations, equipment corrosion, and safety hazards.

By designing and installing a polypropylene HCL fume scrubber integrated with real-time sensors and low-maintenance emission control hardware, our team delivered full EPA and OSHA air quality compliance—and improved air quality for the facility’s operators.

Fugitive Emissions Control – Before vs. After with Custom HCL Scrubber

❌ Before: Industrial Problems

  • HCL Fume Emissions were escaping into the facility and surrounding environment.
  • Compliance Failures due to inadequate air pollution control measures.
  • Corroded Equipment from acid vapors reduced system lifespan.
  • Unsafe Conditions exposed workers to hazardous fumes.
  • High Maintenance Costs from system leaks and emergency repairs.

✅ After: LibertyCES Solution

  • Fugitive Emissions Eliminated with polypropylene HCL scrubber system.
  • Full Air Quality Compliance with EPA, OSHA, and Title 22 standards.
  • Durable Materials selected for long-term acid resistance.
  • Safer Work Environment through neutralization of toxic fumes.
  • Reduced Maintenance & Downtime with streamlined chemical transfer systems in California.
