Abstract Results of theoretical and experimental studies on circular or flat air curtains for containing harmful emanations: proposed mode of calculation (with examples) and industrial uses (air curtains enclosing hardening baths or drying kilns). The air curtain method is recommended in all cases where it is impossible to enclose otherwise a source of harmful gases or aerosols and where local exhaust ventilation does not provide an adequate solution.
