Catalytic & Thermal Oxidizers

Your Thermal Oxidizer will combine the right combination of high temperature, turbulent conditions, and residence time to assure complete combustion of volatile organic compounds or other contaminants in the air stream.

Thermal Oxidizers can be built to handle any size volume of gas. However, even with thermal recovery, most units are less than 20,000 cfm.

CATALYTIC OXIDATION

At lower VOC concentrations (2500 ppm), catalytic oxidation reduces the cost of fuel significantly.

Typically, operating temperatures will be 1/3 of those used in a thermal oxidizer. In many cases, only 500-600º F (260-320º C ) is required for good performance.

Shop fabricated capacities of up to 25,000 cfm are available.

Where large volumes must be handled, we can provide a solvent concentration stage using a special media which captures the voc and then is regenerated. This allows the released voc gas to be sent to a much smaller oxidizer. The result is a reliable system with low operating cost.
