Chemical Mfg. Plant Avoids Long Term Shut Down with Thermal Oxidizer

Oct 10, 2017 8:28:00 AM

Recently, Catalytic Products International (CPI) worked with a customer who determined during a routine plant inspection that they had unexpected emissions from their process. This can happen as regulations change and as plants continue to improve operations or even change products or processes. In this case, the customer voluntarily shut down their process immediately until a solution could be found.

Controlling VOC emissions from a landfill renewable natural gas (RNG) purification upgrade system can be achieved with a direct fired thermal oxidizer (DFTO). The QUADRANT-NRV Series Thermal Oxidation System is designed for use with the low-volume/high-BTU waste gas stream emitted from many landfill renewable natural gas purification processes. As we utilize our Venturi Burner Package to process the waste gas directly through the burner, we are able to reduce the size, and thus cost, of the oxidation system.

With the expected rise in oil prices in the next few years, the increasing instability of the world oil supply, and the increasing demands from the EPA for cleaner fuels and production processes, Food and Plant based Ethanol production is on the rise. Along with this rise in production comes an increased requirement for Air Pollution Control Solutions in the Bio-Fuel’s market.

A metal can decorator worked with Catalytic Products International, Inc to design a unique Thermal (recuperative) Oxidizer. A recuperative thermal oxidizer was chosen over other thermal oxidation systems because of high solvent loads exhausted from the company’s can coating lines and a desire to integrate customized energy recovery system.

A flexographic printer recently contacted Catalytic Products International for help solving a recurring problem with competitors Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer (RTO) that was purchased two years earlier. The system had never been able to pass a stack test; the company was out of compliance and running out of time with the state EPA. Any calls for assistance in getting the RTO to be compliant by the original manufacturer went unanswered. Here's how we helped our customer:

Mar 4, 2014 5:14:00 AM

A flexographic printer recently installed a TRITON-Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer (RTO) from Catalytic Products International, Inc. CPI provided a turnkey installation which included engineering and design of the RTO, the fugitive enclosure system to meet method 204, the ductwork system from all presses, foundation work, electrical integration, and rigged the oxidizer. The project was installed on time and without any added costs.
