Vietnam Environmental Monitoring Laboratory | PP Fume Hood Project
Case 2022-06-14

Project Overview
This Vietnam environmental monitoring lab PP fume hood project is located in Vietnam, serving local environmental authority for water, soil and waste sample testing. Most sample pretreatment work involves strong acid digestion, which releases corrosive acid vapor. The client chose [PP fume hood] for this lab, thanks to polypropylene’s excellent resistance to acid and alkali. Our team finished design, production and delivery of these corrosion-resistant fume cabinets for the testing facility.
PP material is inert to most inorganic corrosive reagents such as hydrochloric acid, nitric acid and sulfuric acid. The integrated seamless inner chamber of this fume hood avoids gaps where corrosive vapor could accumulate. It can withstand long-term exposure to acid mist without rusting or degradation, unlike metal hoods. The hood’s viewing window is tempered glass, allowing technicians to observe experiments safely while isolating harmful fumes. Adjustable air baffle inside stabilizes airflow for consistent exhaust performance.
We matched each hood with suitable exhaust duct and centrifugal blower. Our technical team calculated duct resistance and required air volume to ensure acid vapors are extracted rapidly and discharged outside. Local tropical weather in Vietnam features high temperature and humidity all year round. Metal ventilation equipment tends to corrode quickly under such conditions, while PP fume hood maintains stable performance with minimal maintenance work.
The lab layout arranged all digestion stations in the fume hood zone, separated from precision instrument areas. This arrangement prevents acid vapor from drifting and damaging sensitive testing devices such as spectrophotometers. We also recommended supporting PP reagent cabinets for storing concentrated acid and alkali, to form a complete corrosion-resistant chemical storage and operation system.
Modular structure makes installation convenient for local construction teams. We provided assembly drawings and operation instructions together with the shipment. All units were packed carefully to prevent damage during inland transport and sea freight.
We have supplied PP fume hoods for many environmental labs across Southeast Asia. If you plan an environmental monitoring, water quality or soil testing lab project in Vietnam or nearby countries, share your experiment list and lab drawing. We can offer PP fume hood, ventilation system and anti-corrosion lab furniture solution tailored to your testing work.
This laboratory is an environmental monitoring facility in Vietnam, focusing on water, soil and sediment sample testing. Daily experiments include heavy metal digestion using strong acids and alkalis.
Due to frequent contact with highly corrosive reagents, the client selected PP polypropylene fume hoods. PP material will not rust and can resist long-term erosion of acid vapors. It is perfectly suitable for the hot and humid tropical climate in Southeast Asia.
