System Maintenance

Maximising Uptime, Minimising Emissions

Air pollution and odour control maintenance services

Minimising non‑compliant emissions to atmosphere through regular, planned maintenance of air pollution control systems and odour control systems protects your site’s environmental performance and operating licence, as well as reducing whole‑life costs. 

ERG’s Maintenance Department helps you keep your air pollution, industrial emissions control and wastewater odour control equipment running effectively and at the lowest practical operating costs, covering technologies such as chemical scrubbers, biofilters, carbon filters and VOC abatement systems.

ERG Maintenance capabilities

Our specialist engineers are experienced in maintaining most types of air pollution control equipment and odour control systems and always work to the highest safety standards. We routinely extend the service life of installed assets and often save clients many thousands of pounds by repairing and enhancing dilapidated gas cleaning systems, odour control packages and associated process equipment rather than replacing them.

ERG Maintenance

Industries and assets supported

ERG is a leading expert in air pollution and odour control maintenance in the UK and is a framework supplier for odour control maintenance to Thames Water, Southern Water and Scottish Water, regularly servicing and maintaining over 200 sites.

We provide specialist maintenance services throughout the UK water industry, including wastewater odour control assets such as chemical scrubbers, biofilters and carbon filters on inlet works, sludge treatment and digestion plants.

We also support big‑name and smaller niche chemical, food and pet food manufacturers, and many other customers from a wide variety of industrial sectors operating air pollution control systems, VOC abatement systems and gas cleaning packages. Our experience includes both ERG‑supplied equipment and third‑party systems.

Benefits of planned maintenance for gas cleaning systems

Regular planned maintenance of scrubbers, biofilters, packed tower scrubbers and carbon filters helps maintain design removal efficiencies for hydrogen sulphide (H₂S), ammonia, VOCs and other odorous or corrosive compounds. This reduces the risk of odour complaints, off‑spec stack emissions and unplanned shutdowns of critical plant.

By combining condition assessment, flow surveys and recommissioning, ERG can optimise chemical usage, pumping energy and airflows, improving the overall performance and operating cost of your industrial emissions control and odour control systems.
