Recuperative Catalytic Oxidizer Manufacturer
HiTemp RCO Systems
HiTemp manufactures RCO systems that use an air-to-air preheat exchanger and a precious-metal catalyst bed, allowing oxidation to occur at approximately 550-600oF (288-315oC). This lower temperature requirement reduces the amount of natural gas needed to fuel the VOC abatement system and the overall size of the incinerator. Catalysts typically used for VOC incineration include platinum and palladium.
If design conditions are satisfied, typically no pre-treatment is required; however, in some cases, particulate matter removal may be necessary before the waste gas enters the incinerator. This is critical for both RCOs and RTOs, as both require periodic cleaning. Periodic maintenance for cleaning the catalyst bed of an RCO can be accomplished using a high-pressure shop vacuum. Unlike a HiTemp RCO, our competitors' RTO systems require a complete disassembly of the packing media for cleaning, which increases system maintenance costs and downtime.
HiTemp RCO System Advantages
HiTemp Recuperative Catalytic Oxidizer Systems have these advantages when compared to the competition's RTO systems:
- Lower shipping and installation costs due to modular design
- Lower maintenance and repair costs with less system downtime
- Significantly lower fuel cost to operate
- One-button system startup
- 15-minute warm-up from cold startup
- Easy operating control from multiple locations
- Emissions meet or exceed EPA specifications
- Average 20-year operating life
