Catalytic Oxidizer System List - Sterilization sterilizing sterilize (207 words)
This system is completely automatic, monitors and controls multiple sterilizers and provides additional level of safety and economy to the operation of the equipment and sterilization facility.
Fresh air is introduced into the oxidizer through prefilters, heat exchanger, and heaters.
Heat can be recovered via a heat exchanger to heat aeration rooms and further add to the economic operation of the sterilization facility.
Thermal Oxidizer | Catalytic Products offers Thermal Oxidizers and Oxidation Equipment for Air Pollution Control (648 words)
These harmless by-products are released to atmosphere or use an energy recovery technique to further lower the operational costs.
The introduction and continued use of the QUADRANT Thermal Oxidizer product group are proof of our commitment to developing innovative and effective air pollution control equipment.
As soon as the required operating temperature is reached, the TSS enables the process lines to feed into the oxidizer or holds the system in idle mode until production is ready.
