Tiivistelmä
The field of this work is the ventilation system of commercial kitchens. This type of ventilation differs a lot from any other because of grease problem: Grease accumulated in the ducts. It leads to numerous serious risks which are discussed in this thesis. In this work you can also find information about grease construction and its sources. The main idea of the thesis is finding out the better solution of grease problem in commercial kitchens.
There are two ways of solving grease problem in pro-kitchens: grease filter installation and duct cleaning. Different types of grease filters are compared during this work. The better efficiency among baffle filter, cyclonic filter and Turbo Swing filter is found out. The Turbo Swing filter operational work principle and the gap influence on the efficiency of Turbo Swing filter are studied in the MUAS (Mikkelin University of Applied Sciences) laboratory. The results and analyses of these measurements are presented in this thesis.
The ways of duct cleaning are also compared in this work. The information about frequency of pro-kitchens duct cleaning in different countries are presented and compared in this thesis.
