An effective and environmentally friendly pollution control unit for kitchen exhaust
Reduce fat and grease significantly – Automated and intelligent purification of exhaust air.
JIMCO’s Kitchen Pollution Control System (KPC) is the only system in the world with an Environmental Technology Verification (ETV), and the system has been used for commercial kitchens for over 20 years.
The KPC system will effectively remove the odour from the air and break down the grease and oil in the exhaust air. The documented odour reduction will allow restaurants to look for a premium location in odour sensitive areas. With a properly dimensioned system, you can exhaust air in parking cellar, directly on street level or onto the balcony of your neighbour.

Case Study
Hotel Odeon has been built to the same extent as urban development in Odense, which aims to be more environmentally friendly. For this purpose, a 4 lane road that went through the city has been closed and the result of this can already be seen today with Hotel Odeon and its 234 rooms in the heart of the historical part of Odense in Denmark.
Challenge
Inappropriate placement of air inlet and outlet channels, where the risk of cross-contamination is high. JIMCO remedied this by installing Kitchen Pollution Control (KPC) in the kitchen hoods.
No bad complaints about the smell either in or outside Hotel Odeon:
- “It is amazing that the air outlet located close to the supply air does
not cause any odor problems” - “Neighbors has not complained about odors, especially when we
fry bacon and you have no doubt about this smell”
Simple to install in existing hoods
The JIMCO UV-C lamps are placed in a steel frame, which is installed behind the grease filters in the hood or, in cases where this is not possible due to lack of space, in an enclosure immediately above the hood.
KPC inflict to intensive UV-C light on to grease particles which disrupt them and then oxidises them through the ductwork with ozone which causes contaminants in the air to be destroyed, resulting in the reduction of odour emissions to the surroundings and no grease deposits in the ductwork. This process reduces the odour emitted to the surroundings.
We recommend that ducts are manually cleaned before installing a JIMCO commercial kitchen pollution control unit for air cleaning.
The advantages of using a JIMCO KPC system means the traditional problems with air filtration are eliminated. Examples are: high chimneys, electrostatic filters, activated carbon filters, scrubbers, deodorising oils etc.
The JIMCO Kitchen Pollution Control system are efficient in every commercial kitchen. No matter if it is in fast-food restaurants, canteens, hotels, or hospitals.
