CKV (Commercial Kitchen Ventilation) System

1. GENMECH Engineering
JIMCO KPC
Air Cleaning System for
Commercial Kitchens
ESP vs UVC

2. Commercial Kitchen Pollution Control
System Recommended by Consultants
 JIMCO is the 1st in the market that utilise
Photolitic Oxidation technology for Kitchen
Pollution Control (KPC). We are the only UVC
system supplier certified by UL Laboratories for
UL 710 (Standard for Safety for Exhaust Hoods
for Commercial Cooking Equipment).

3. Benefits of using JIMCO KPC
System
 Effective and proven system certified by
Underwriters Laboratories for UL 710.
 Elimination of Fire Hazard.
 Elimination of costly maintenance and operation
downtime, due to Kitchen Exhaust Duct
cleaning.
 Environmentally Friendly.
 Compliance to Regulations.

4. Kitchen Exhaust Pollution
2 Phase of contamination in
the exhaust from cooking.
 Particulate Phase -
Grease and Hydrocarbon
(Smoke)
 Gaseous Phase - Odour

5. Mechanical Method - Electrostatic
Precipitation (ESP)
 Kitchen Exhaust pass between negatively charged
ionizing wires and are attracted to positively
charged collection plates.
 Gases and vapours cannot be collected by ESPs,
therefore Activated Carbon Filters are required.

6. Electrostatic Precipitator
Limitations
 Optimum operational
Air Velocity <1.8m/s.
 Gases and vapours
contaminants (Odour)
(Odour)
cannot be treated.
 Require Activated
Carbon Filters to
remove Odour.
Odour.

7. Electrostatic Precipitator
Disadvantages
 Potential Fire Hazard,
due to “Live Wire” in
Air Stream.
 Ionizing wire and
collecting plate laden
with grease, thus
reducing efficiency.
 Require frequent
cleaning to maintain
efficiency.

8. Electrostatic Precipitator
Disadvantages
 Require maintenance by
trained technician.
 Require substantial
space for installation.
 System may Short
Circuit, when humidity
is high.
 Exhaust duct from
Kitchen Hood are not
treated.

9. Photochemistry Method -
Photolysis & Ozonolysis
(Photozone)
 Photolysis - Long
molecule chain of
grease are broken by
UVC.
 Ozonolysis - Shorten
chains of grease and
grease vapours are
oxidized by Ozone.

10. JIMCO UVC Photozone
Advantages
 Optimum operational Air Velocity <2.5m/s for
UVC to breakdown and oxidize organic chain.
 Oxidation process able to significantly reduce
odour.
odour.

11. JIMCO UVC Photozone Benefits
 Reduce risk of Fire
Hazard.
 Eliminates regular
cleaning of Kitchen
Exhaust Duct.
 Compact installation
within Kitchen Exhaust
Hood.
 Ease of maintenance,
due to accessibility.

12. JIMCO UVC Photozone Benefits
 Easy to clean, can be
done by kitchen staff.
 Should Activated
Carbon Filters are used
to polish the exhaust
air, the filters life span
are extended, due to
Ozone regeneration
effect.

13. JIMCO the only system supplier
certified by UL
 Is the intended
grease/odour reduction
system suitable for
installation into
Commercial Kitchen
environment?
 Have they been
certified by UL or any
recognized authorities
to be safe for kitchen
exhaust treatment?

14. JIMCO Recognitions
 JIMCO EU Award is
endorsed by the Danish
Engineering Society.
