Center Aisle Ventilation

Desom’s Center Aisle Exhaust System is a high-efficiency ventilation solution engineered to control acid mist and airborne contaminants in copper electrowinning facilities. Designed to run continuously above the central walkway between cell banks, this system captures emissions directly at the source—before they can spread into the workspace—ensuring compliance with industrial hygiene standards and improving operator safety.

Paired with our DirectFlo™ Primary Air Jets, the system creates a controlled airflow corridor that effectively sweeps acid mist and process gases toward high-efficiency scrubbers or exhaust stacks
– depending on client needs. Its performance has been validated in demanding tankhouse environments around the world, offering consistent results in mist suppression and airflow optimization.

Built with corrosion-resistant materials and a modular design, Desom’s Center Aisle Exhaust System supports both new installations and retrofitting applications. It is fully customizable to fit tankhouse geometry, cell spacing, and ventilation load requirements, making it a flexible choice for operations looking to improve air quality while minimizing energy use.

Key Features:

  • Continuous central ducting for uniform mist capture across the tankhouse
  • Synergistic design with DirectFlo™ Primary Air Jets for directional airflow
  • FRP and other corrosion-resistant materials for long service life
  • Modular and scalable for easy integration into existing facilities
  • Proven in electrowinning plants globally, with measurable reductions in acid mist exposure
