Thermal Oxidisers
are a class of pollution control devices that use the combustion process to
destroy volatile organic compounds (VOC) and Hydrogen Sulphide, hence they are
sometimes called afterburners, fume incinerators or tail gas incinerators.
Gasco Thermal Oxidisers include:
• Straight Thermal Oxidisers with or without heat recovery
• Recuperative Thermal Oxidiser
• Catalytic Thermal Oxidiser
• Regenerative Thermal Oxidiser – RTO
Gasco Thermal Oxidisers can handle a wide range of process parameters including
variable waste flow rates, calorific values, temperature and oxygen content.
Features of our Thermal Oxidisers are their robust performance, ability to
operate at high thermal efficiency and achieve >99.99 per cent destruction efficiency.
Gasco Thermal Oxidisers scope may include turnkey projects, designed to comply
with our clients specifications and environmental authority regulations.
We have supplied Thermal Oxidisers to the oil and gas, chemical, automotive,
medical, food, minerals and metals industries.
Heat from the exhaust of a Thermal Oxidiser can be recovered in a Waste Heat
Recovery Unit, energy can be utilized in the form of heat transfer fluids – oil, water, air and to raise steam.
A Gasco RTO can provide average thermal efficiency of up to 95+% and use about
20 times less fuel than a TO with no heat recovery. In some applications the
VOC present in the waste gas stream may enable the Gasco RTO to operate without
any supplementary fuel gas (except at start up). Destruction efficiency of up
to 99.5+% is achievable.
