Abstract

In the history of industrial development, until today, it is customary in the manufacturing process that the production of the products from the metals are carried out mostly using welding process to produce certain product. During the welding process, welders will be exposed to fume that is released as a result from the welding rod burning which is harmful to their health. This problem should be prevented to comply occupational safety and health requirement by the Department of Occupational Safety and Health Malaysia, by using specially designed scrubber that used to scrub the welding fume before it is released to the atmosphere. The purpose of this project is to design and fabricate a scrubber system that can remove welding fume to ensure that the fume is sucked out from the welding working space and later on scrubbed in a scrubber chamber thus create safe and healthy working environment and surrounding. The scrubber system that was selected to be used in this project is a wet scrubber system. As we know nowadays, the scrubber technology has been widely used in various application not only in cleaning the welding fume but also in all gases scrubbing in all kind of industries that release flue gases. The fabricated scrubber system was then tested in a welding workshop to assess its performance and efficiency in scrubbing the welding fume before released to the open atmosphere.
