Ethylene oxide (EtO) is a flammable, colorless gas used as an agent to sterilize equipment and plastic devices that cannot be sterilized by steam, such as healthcare devices and instruments. Ethylene oxide is also used to make other chemicals that produce many everyday products including plastics, textiles, adhesives, detergents and cosmetics.

UPDATE March 14, 2024. EPA announces final rule to slash toxic emissions of ethylene oxide and reduce cancer risk.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced a rule that will reduce lifetime cancer risks for people living near commercial sterilization facilities across the country. The final amendments to the air toxics standards for ethylene oxide commercial sterilization facilities put in place the strongest measures in U.S. history to reduce emissions of EtO, one of the most potent cancer-causing chemicals. Through the installation of proven and achievable air pollution controls, commercial sterilizers will reduce emissions by more than 90%. Learn more here.

Air Pollution Control Oxidizer Case Studies

Recently, a contract drug manufacturing company faced violation of their state operating permit, costly fines, and potential Title V permit classification. To avoid penalties, a more robust abatement device had to be installed, one that met the necessary emissions standards for volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Pharmaceutical Company Chooses CPI Thermal Oxidizer for VOC Control

Posted by Jan Carlson

Mar 4, 2014 3:21:00 AM

Faced with meeting the needs of their Pharmaceutical Industry MACT Standards, one Fortune 100 Pharmaceutical Manufacturer called on CPI for assistance. The challenge for Catalytic Products International was to design a system that was able to process the ultra-high LEL (high concentration of VOC’s) and deal with corrosive acids produced in the process off gas and the post-combustion gases. Adding to the challenge, there were many more sources that use halogenated VOC’s in the process. A halogenated VOC is an organic hydro-carbon that contains chlorine (Cl). The post combustion gases will contain Hydrochloric Acid. In order to meet the needs of local regulations and the industry MACT, the HCl also has to be removed from the exhaust stream prior to atmospheric release.
