Thermal oxidation (RTO) for the removal of VOC and odours generated in production
Thermal oxidiser design and construction
- Exhaust gases from various industrial processes contain large amounts of volatile organic content (VOC) or odours which must be removed prior to their release into the atmosphere, to ensure compliance with applicable regulations. Thermal oxidisation is the most effective process used for this purpose. Contaminated exhaust gases are heated to a high temperature in the combustion chamber in the presence of air, and then fully oxidised prior to being safely released into the atmosphere.
- The oxidisers are designed and built to recover heat outside (recuperative oxidisers) or inside (regenerative oxidisers) the system.
- They are widely applied in paint shops, food processing, brewing, chemical and pharmaceutical industries.
