Acid Mist Suppression

In the electrolytic processes of non-ferrous metals such as Cu, Zn, Ni, Co, and Mn, excessive acid mist emissions pose serious health hazards to workers and jeopardize equipment integrity. The Famigo® series of acid mist suppressants is developed to deliver significant suppression performance at ultra-low dosage levels. These products effectively reduce acid mist generation while preserving metal purity and surface finish quality. By integrating Famigo®, our customers can build cleaner production lines, enhance ESG compliance, and mitigate occupational health risks in line with global safety standards.

In the electrowinning, electrorefining, and electroplating of non-ferrous metals such as Cu, Zn, Nik, Co, and Mn, excessive acid mist emissions pose serious health risks to worker health and equipment safety. The Famigo® series of acid mist suppressants is developed to deliver significant suppression performance at ultra-low dosage levels, effectively reducing acid mist formation while preserving metal purity and surface finish quality. Meanwhile, it enables clients to build cleaner production lines, improve ESG performance, and mitigate occupational health risks in a comprehensive and sustainable manner.

Famigo ® FS-101

This is a highly stable fluorocarbon-based acid mist suppressant formulated for direct application in copper electrowinning electrolytes. By lowering surface tension, it effectively suppresses acid mist, helping maintain a cleaner, safer working environment while also reducing corrosion and extending equipment lifespan.

Typically used in the electrowinning (EW) stage of hydrometallurgical copper refining, it can be combined with floating plastic spheres for enhanced effect. It does not generate excessive surface foam, helping to minimize reagent loss and ensuring compatibility with both solvent extraction (SX) and electrowinning (EW) systems.
