Thermal oxidizers are used within industry to modify
product and process gas emissions into environmentally safe gasses.
Typical thermal oxidizers process contaminants by first preheating the
gasses, then passing the gasses through a burner at a controlled and
optimal temperature. When the gasses are subjected to the optimal
temperature, the pollutants are converted into environmentally safe
gasses, such as water, or carbon dioxide. Typically, the treated gasses
are thermally recycled to assist in the thermal oxidation process. The
cleaned gasses are then exhausted into the atmosphere.
Thermal oxidizers are typically one of two types,
recuperative or regenerative. Recuperative thermal oxidizers may use a
catalytic material within the gas stream to assist in converting the
gasses into environmentally safe gasses. Regenerative thermal
oxidizers typically rely exclusively on gas conversation by utilizing
optimal or controlled temperature methods.
Industry processes which utilize thermal oxidizers are:
printing, curing, paint spraying, coating processes, and laminating.
