style=\"list-style-type: disc;margin-left:1.2rem;font-size: 1rem;line-height:1.6rem\">\nA tire manufacturing plant had been <span style=\"font-weight:bold;font-size: 1rem\">spraying a deodorizing agent<\/span> inside its exhaust duct using spray nozzles.<\/p>\n<p style=\"list-style-type: disc;margin-left:1.2rem;font-size: 1rem;line-height:1.6rem\">\nEffectively addressing odors specific to tires and rubber requires adequate ventilation through well-installed exhaust ducts and the targeted spraying of a deodorizing liquid.<br \/>\nThis approach not only improves the working environment but also helps mitigate concerns about odor complaints from nearby residents.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\"

style=\"list-style-type: disc;margin-left:1.2rem;font-size: 1rem;line-height:1.6rem\">However, the plant was experiencing <span style=\"font-weight:bold;font-size: 1rem\">frequent nozzle clogging, resulting in a heavy maintenance burden<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"list-style-type: disc;margin-left:1.2rem;font-size: 1rem;line-height:1.6rem\">At each spraying location, they had connected three to four relatively low-flow nozzles using tubing to apply the deodorizing liquid.<br \/>\nHowever, exposure to exhaust in the duct caused foreign matter to accumulate on the nozzles, leading to repeated clogging.<br \/>\nIn addition, having multiple small nozzles at each location made maintenance and replacement difficult, leaving them virtually abandoned.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full
