PCC - Recuperative Thermal Oxidizer (Afterburner)

Downstream heat recovery equipment uses the available heat produced within the thermal oxidizer combustion chamber to reduce auxiliary fuel consumption, produce steam, heat a process air stream, or heat a liquid stream. A recuperative thermal oxidizer system can have a single heat recovery device or multiple heat recovery devices.

In addition to the recuperative thermal oxidizer systems shown above, a recuperative thermal oxidizer can incorporate:

• Combustion air preheat to conserve fuel
• Other heat recover equipment such as a hot oil heater, hot water economizer, or asphalt heater

Recuperative thermal oxidizers can treat multiple gaseous and liquid waste streams that are endothermic and/or exothermic.
