In metal refining, casting processes are challenged by contaminants like dust, grit, and metallic fumes from grinding and blasting, which threaten plant safety, worker health, and product quality. These abrasive contaminants, often 1 to 20 µm, can cause combustion or explosions. Uncontrolled weld fumes further reduce productivity and increase maintenance. Maintaining hydraulic systems in these harsh conditions is also difficult, resulting in downtime and increased costs.
