An ultrasonic fogging nozzle is a liquid-delivery component, not a complete odor or VOC treatment system. It can distribute a fine spray in an engineered odor-control process, but treatment performance depends on the target compound, treatment liquid, contact conditions, ventilation, controls and verified chemical compatibility.
What the nozzle can and cannot do
The nozzle atomizes a supplied liquid using compressed air and a vibrating impingement head. It does not identify pollutants, select treatment chemistry or prove removal efficiency. Water alone should not be presented as a universal VOC treatment. Any neutralizing, absorbing or reacting liquid must be specified and approved by the process owner or qualified treatment supplier.
Use the nozzle only after the odor source, target compounds, required treatment method and discharge constraints have been defined. State performance percentages only when supported by a documented test for the actual facility and operating condition.
Verified SK508, SV882 and SV980 nozzle data
| Model | Air requirement | Water/liquid baseline | Tested average droplets | Approx. no-wind distance | Angle |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SK508 | 5.0 bar; 112 L/min | 1.0 bar; 0.359 L/min | 10.02 μm at 0.5 m | ≈2 m | 80° |
| SV882 | 5.0 bar; 240 L/min | 1.0 bar; 0.746 L/min | 13.79 μm at 1.5 m | ≈3.5 m | 60° |
| SV980 | 3.0 bar; 307 L/min | 0.5 bar; 0.688 L/min | 15.82 μm at 2.0 m | ≈4 m | 30° |
The published liquid data were supplied for the nozzle parameter sheet. For any treatment liquid other than water, provide composition, concentration, viscosity, temperature and solids for compatibility review. Droplet values are test averages at stated heights; distance is approximate under no-wind conditions.
Design the odor-control process before selecting a nozzle
| Process question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| What is the odor or pollutant source? | A contained duct, tank opening, tipping floor or open windrow has different airflow and contact conditions. |
| Which compounds are present? | Treatment chemistry and exposure controls depend on the actual compounds and concentration. |
| Where should contact occur? | Spraying into a controlled zone differs from open-area masking or surface wetting. |
| What liquid is approved? | Nozzle material, seals, filtration and safety procedure must be compatible. |
| How will performance be measured? | Define monitoring and acceptance before claiming an outcome. |
Use angle and approximate reach to shortlist a model, then calculate total simultaneous air and liquid demand. Ventilation and cross-drafts can change the spray path; verify the contact zone during commissioning.
Facility evaluation examples
Waste transfer or material-handling areas
Identify the release event and displaced-air path. A controlled spray zone near the source may reduce drift, but the treatment method must be approved for the waste stream and worker environment.
Composting or biological treatment areas
Outdoor wind, changing feedstock and seasonal conditions can dominate spray behavior. A site trial should evaluate coverage, drift and actual treatment performance.
Wastewater tanks or process openings
Review corrosion, electrical classification, worker exposure, ventilation and access requirements with the responsible facility team before installing any spray equipment.
Safety, material and chemical compatibility
- Obtain the treatment liquid’s safety data and process approval.
- Confirm nozzle body, seals, hoses, fittings and filter compatibility in the quotation.
- Do not mix or atomize chemicals without an approved procedure.
- Assess inhalation, skin/eye exposure, overspray, drainage and environmental discharge.
- Provide isolation and depressurization for maintenance.
- Use the G1/8 water/liquid inlet and G1/4 air inlet only as documented for the supplied configuration.
The parameter sheet does not establish a universal stainless-steel grade, certificate set or chemical-compatibility range. These items must be confirmed for the ordered configuration.
