suction of hydrochloric acid gas away from work area
(OP)
In an industry that produces PVC tubes i want to suck the HCL gas that is produced near the machines away from the building.
Now thw industry uses two big fans on the roof sucking the air (and the HCL gas) of the room out of the building but this is not enough.
Do i have to use plastic fins for the new fans ?
Also i am thinking of using tubes near to the machines to drive the HCL gas out through the fans.
Any suggestion ?
Book, article, company, etc. to find something ?

You definitely want materials that will not be attacked by HCl. Any moisture sucked in with the HCl will give you an acid that will eat your metalwork. Your fan motor itself will need to be protected.
