''Dear Mr. Gibbons,

Thank you for your interest in Diirr Environmental, Inc.

Diirr is the leading worldwide supplier of air pollution equipment designed to

reduce odor, VOC, HAP, particulate, CO and NOx emissions. Diirr offers many

technologies, each selected to match the customer's process anp needs.

As a first-round examination of this applic~tion, I have. included a comparison of

two control devicesand their associated operating costs to treat a "worst-case"

airstream of 300,000 scfm with only 64 Ibs/hr of VOC emissions.' The actual

airflow may be lower and the VOC emissions higher, but these values give you a

feel for the extreme end of the operating range.

Both Regenerative Thermal Oxidation (RTO) and Concentrator with Thermal

Oxidation technolgies are examined here. Both approaches have been used

extensively in the composites fabricating industry, including 'open molding

applications. . .

DOrr has the ability to perform complex turnkey installations,including every1hing

from foundations to structural platforms to process ductwork. At this time there

are too many vari.ables to predict the pricing of such additional scope, but for now

I have included price estimates of installing our equipment on a pad supplied by

others, with utilities afld other support services also by others.

We have several large systems in operation, and as an example, we discussed

briefly the application of concentrator technology on a 200,000 scfm open

molding application in West Virginia. We have had a concentrator system there

for three years abating styrene and methyl methacrylate at efficiencies exceeding

95%.

In addition to the use of concentrators to reduce the operating costs of

abatement, there is the possibility of taking the cleaned exhaust air from the

adsorber and, since it is typically at ambient temperature, re-introducing it to the

manufacturing facility to minimize energy costs, .

Finally, w~ invite you learn more about our unique 9ursourcing program known

as The TOTAL Solution TM, This program offers cu;;tomers the ability to pay for

their emission control equipment only on a performance basis - with monthly

measurables as agreed upon with DOrr - and offers a ten-year, all parts-andlabor-included warranty, .,. .

We would be happy to visit either you or your client to describe these systems

a'nd our qualifications in more detail. Please 'contact me at 630,587.9960 or your

local sales representative, Mr. Lary Heath of Environmental Products, Inc. to

arrange such a visit ocif you require additional in(ormation.

PRINCIPLE OF OPE:RATION

Rotary Concentrator

The concentration of VOG in the process eXhaust air is achieved by passing the

VOG laden air first through a rotary adsorber. As the process air passes through

the adsorber the VOG are adsorbed onto the media affixed to the rotor. The clean

process air is then exhausted to atmosphere. The VOG adsorbed on the rotor are

continuously removed by a high temperature low volume desorption air stream.

The desorption air stream containing the VOG desorbed from the rotor is then

directed into a thermal oxidizer for destruction of the VOG.

Recuperative Thermal Oxidizer

The purpose of the Recuperative Thermal Oxidizer is to destroy Volatile Organic

Gompounds(VOC) in the concentrator desorption air stream. This is achieved

by heating the air stream with a natural gas fired bumer to approximately 1350°F

and retaining it at this temperature for approximately 0.5- 1.0 second. This

'causes the VOG in the air stream to spontaneously undergo an oxidization

.reaction in which the VOG are converted to carbon dioxide and water vapor. The

purified process exhaust is then discharged to atmosphere. The rec.uperative

oxidizer uses an integral shell and tube heat exchanger plus a secondary heat

exchanger.

The primary heat exchanger recovers approximately 65% of the heat from the

purified process exhaust. A secondary heat exchanger is used to warm up the

desorption air stream for the rotary concentrator. This enables the system to

operate with minimal natural gas.

Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer

The purpose of the Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer is to destroy Volatile Organic

Gompounds (VOG) in the concentrator desorption air stream. This is achieved

. by heating the air stream with a natural gas fired bumerto 1500°F minimum and

retaining it at this temperature for approximately 0.5 seconds. This causes the

VOG in the air stream to spontaneously undergo an oxidization reaction in which

the VOC are converted to carbon dioxide and water vapor. The purified process

eXhaust is then sent to atmosphere. The RTO uses a rotary distribution valve

and multiple beds of ceramic heat transfer media to recover up to 95% of the

heat from the purified process exhaust. A secondary heat exchanger system is

used to warm up the desorption air stream for the rotary concentrator. This .

enables the system to operate with minimal natural gas.

Rotary Concentrator Followed by Thermal or

Catalytic Oxidatlon-AHybrid Approach to

Economical Styrene Abatement

AJAY GUPTA and JIM STONE .

INTRODUCfION:

The Fiber Glass Reinforced (FRP) industry, main.consumer and emitter ofstyrene, has

been growing rapidly to meet the industrial and consumer demands it has helped grow. In 1970, .

styrene production exceeded 5 billion Ibs. annually, whereas in 1989 this production increased to

8.9 billion Ibs and has been growing eversince. This growth has led to Increased styrene emissions

to the atmosphere.

Styrene is not only a smog causing VOC but also an Hazardous Air Pollutant which adds

significance.tofmding solutions for its present emissions levels and future potential. At present,

task forces from EPA and various plastics industry consortiums'are in the process of deciding

. MACT standard. . . .

Hybrid System

Hybrid systems are two stage abatement systems wherein styrene is first captured and preconcentrated into a smaller air stream~ Subsequently, in'the second stase, the concentrated stream is

destroyed ,in a thermal oxidizer. The firststage o~capture and concentration is called

preconcentfation and the second stage of oxidiation is called destruction. '

A widely used preconcentration deivce is'Rotary Concentrator which continuously

';'ptUres and concentrates styrene, It has a rotating cylinder or wheel consisting of h9neycomb

monoliths <ifsuitable adsorbent (carbcn or zeolite):'The surface of the cylinder is divided into three

zones: Adsorption, Desorption, and Cooling, Each zone is isolated from the other,by precision seals

to 'allow continuous and simultaneous adsorption, desorption and cooling: ' ' • .., I "

Experience With Rotary Concentrators

, !><lore than ISO units are operational in the US in various surface fmishing inilustries,

Many more are operational in Europe and Japan including eight units on styfene emission~.,These

installations have sufficient operating history to prove viability of Rotary Concentrators for'styrene

abatement

In addition to field experience (data provided later), extensive pilot scale testing was conducted at a

site in the US to demonstrate its applicability. '

Conclusions:

1. Both the pilot study and the history of operation from existing installations prove that Rotary

Concentrator in conjunction with an oxidation device is a reliable and effective technology.

2.' Rotary Concentrator reduces the cost of abatement significantly.

3. Rotary concentrator offers a practical end-of-the-pipe solution to achieve the goals proposed in

the EPA study, Le. decrease volume and increase styrene co~centrationt without extensive

ventilation modification. In cases where, ventilation system could be modified, the rotary

concentrator could still be used.

4. Rotary Concentrator reduces operating cost up to six times and CO, and NO, emissions to less

than half over RTO.

, PRINCIPLE OF OXIDATION

Thermal oxidation is a process whereby"mo~ of the VOCs are broken down

and recombined with oxygen to produce water vapor and carbon dioxide..

The .water vapor and carbon dioxide are naturally occurring and environmentally friendly, therefore safe for venting into the atmosphere. Thermal

oxidation is inItiated by heating the polluted .air to a temperature in the

1.30<rF to 1,800"F rang~ and retaining it ~t this temperature for a period of

0.5 to 1.0 seconds. At these temperatures. the pollutant molecules spontaneously disassociate af!d recombine with available oxygen to create the

carbon dioxide and water vapor.

RECUPERATIVE DI:SIGN FEATURES

Recuperative thermal oxidizers can be applied to almost all combustible

organic pollutants in a vaporstate. The oxidizers are applied in virtua lIy

any i~dUStry, but can o.ften be found in che~icaI. pharmaceutical, printing,

coating, paper, textile and paint finishing applications.

Recuperative oxidizer units are mDst economical when excess thermal

energy can be recovered for use else~here in the production p~ocesses.

Recuperative oxidizer operating costs are lower when the incoming solvent

concentration· is high, so less burner fuel.is required:

CATALYST IMPROVES FUEL EFFICIENCY

vac catalyst can be added to the comb.ustion chamb~r of.alm~st ~ny

oxidizer to promote Vac destrUction at lower operating temperatl!res

(typically 6oo'F to 9oo'F), lowering fuel usage. Note: Catalytic oxidizers are

only suitable for processes whose constituents will not: adversely ~ffect the

life of the catalyst.
.THERMAL [ OXidi~er Technology

-

REGENERATIVE THERMAL OXIDIZER (RTO) ,

An RTO is an oxidizer that works more effICiently. using iess energy

than a Recup. Heating the polluted airsveam to an oxidizing temperature

requires conside~ble thermal energy. The RTO's unique heat r&overy

system is designed to redirect the majority of this energy' for reuse in

treating the incoming process airstream. This design reduces fuel consumption to a fraction of what would be required with conventional oxidizers.

PRINCIPLES:OF ADSORPTION

A concentrator Is capture device tha~ removes VOCs and HAPs from the

exhaust airstream. A complete concentrator system requires some sort of

destruction or recovery device.

Concentration of the VOCs is accomplished through a continuous adsorption

and desorption proteSS. Adsorption is the. process by Which the VOC moiecules pres~nt in .th§l·piocess exhaust airstream are cqllected and retained "on

the surface of the adsorbent media. This surface reactio'n takes place as the

total volume of process exhaust is directed through the me.dla. leaving the

air environr:nentally acceptable for discharge into the atmosphere.

In the desorption phase, a separate, smaller airstream is directed through an

isolated zone of ac:koibent media in the 'op'posite direction of the adsorption

air.flow. The desorption airstream is typically 5% to 20% of the adsorption

volume, depending OSl solvent type and concentration, and is at a much

higher temperature. The heat releases the previously collected molecules

into the isolate~ de.stX"ption airstream: This air, with its ir:'lcreased vae

concentration, Is then routed to the (inal destruction or recove~ device.

low by the reduced size of the thermal oxidizer-only 5% to _20% of the

COMPLETE DESIGN FEATURES

MO0 ULAR The DOrr DISC is a skid·mounted System consisting of two stages-a rotating

SYSTEM concentrator disk. where carbon or zeolite media adsorbs incoming pollutants, and the thermal oxidizer. where the concentrated pollutants, after

being stripped from the disk, are destroyed at temperatures of 1,3SQoF or

higher. The process b integrated, with waste heat from the oxidation step

recovered via heat exchangers, to.. provide preheat for .i0t;:oming oxidizer air

and to provide-hot desorb air to strip the disk ·of collected pollutants.

DESIGN FEJrrURES ,

.The DOrr Fixed Bed Concentrator System combines two technologies to

achieve VaG removal and destruction. The first stage consists of two stationary Adsorber Modules. Exhaust from the customer's process with a low

concentration of vacs is ~ireeted to Adsorber Module #1. The VaG-laden

air is passed through the adsorbent bed wher.ethe vacs are trapped by the

process of adsorption. The cleaned air is then exhausted lethe atmosphere.

When the adsorptIon cycle is terminated, Adsorber Moduie #1. is sealed off

and Adsorber Module 1/2 is brought on-line.

The oxidizer's hot exhaust is dueled into the off-line Adsorber Module.

This hot gas raises the temperature of the adsorbent, causing i.t to desorb

and release the VOCs. This high-concentratIon gas is' routed back to the

oxidizer where it Is used as a secondary ~ueJ for the burner. A reduction in

fuel consumption is realized due to the concentrated level of.VOCs present

in the airstream. The exhaust from the oxidizer is diluted with ambient air

to maintain the desired regeneration temperature.

The Fixed Bed Concentrator System is.generally used to control processes

with high-volume exhaust and low '{DC concentratio~. The system offers

operating cost savings when compared to OXidation alone. ()estruction and

removal efficiencies of 98% or'greater can be achieved with ~e Fixed Bed,

Concenu:ator System in concentration ratios up'to 100:1.

MILLENNIUM'"

Regulatory Cnmpliance

The MlLLENNruM's small entrained volume

holds VOC puffs to a minimum. The standard

system can achieve 99% VOC destruc~on with

low NO, emissions, easily meeting most clean

air requirements. For higher cleanup rates,

a VOC Capture System is available. This option

can be ordered as nriginal equipment, offieldinstalled at a later date.

Fast, Simple.Installation

'The systefll is preassembled, prewired, prepiped

and fully pretested at the factory. All units ship

on commercial trucks without special' permits.

lnstallation and start-up time is kept to a minimum, typically requlring less than one week.

Turnkey installations are available.

The MILLENNIUM,...

the economic advantages ofregenerative

thermal oxidation for low-flowlns!allations,

Money-Saving Media

The MILLENNIUM uses an inexpensive

ceramic heat exchange media that is virtually

indestructible. The media's exceptionally

low resistance minimizes pressure drop.

That means smooth operations and reduced

electrical operating costs.

Compact, t;:ost-Efficient Design

The system's integrated ductwork, individual

poppet valves and unique, single-box configuration save on both capital and in.sta}Iation

costs. The compact, space-saviog unit offers

considerable installatinn flexibility. Systems

for either indoor or outdoor placement are .

available. The MILLENNIUM's relatively

light weight easily permits rooftop placement

The MILLENNIUM redefines the econontics

of clean air compliance.lrus unique, compact

system can meet the needs of a wide variety

of industrial applications at flows as low as

2,1XXl SCFM with further turndown possible.

The MILLENNIUM provides the efficiency,

effectiveness and reliability of RTOs at very

affordable capital, installation and operating

costs. The MILLENNruM brings the adYan- .

tages of RTOs to a whole new realm of

process applications. .

Regenerative thermal oxidizers (RTOs)

offer distinct operating-cost and

performance advantages over other

VOC control technologies. But until now, the

benefits of regenerative systems could only be

. cost-justified in high-flow process applications.

Exceptional Fuel Efficiency

The system delivers thermal efficiencies

of95%. Even at relatively low solvent

concentrations, the system can sustain

thermal conditions with the heat rel~

during VOC oxidation - requiring no

additional fuel for VOC destruction.
• 99% VOC Destruction Rates

• 95% Thermal Efficiency

• Low Capital, Installation and Maintenance Costs

• Fast Installation and Start-up

,

{

f

t

Operating Reliability

The MILLENNIUM practically operates itself.

In standard configtIIlltion, the only moving parts

are four reinforced poppet-style valves. An

advanced electronic control system automatically

tunes the system for high VOC destruction rates

.with maximum fuel efficiency. The system's

simple design offers low maintenance costs.

Advanced Telemetry

Each MlLLI;NNIUM comes equipped with

a modem and integral telemetry for trending, .

monitoring and remote diagnostics. A wealth

of data is available to the operator for analysis, .

troubleshooting and fuel optimization.

Long-Lasting Perfonnance

The system's rugged construction and

rein-fore&! body ensure years of reliable

service. Special alloys provide superior

resistance to embrittlement and cracking.

Extra insulation helps control thermal stress

while minimizing radiant heat loss.

Available Secondary Heat Recovery

MEGTEC offers secondary h.eat recovery

for applications where higher solvent loading

yields more heat than is needed to sustain

oxidation. The reCovered energy can be

returned to process applications or used to

reduce other plant energy requirements.

Other Options.

MEGfEC can customize the MILLENNIUM

to meet specific needs and requirements.

Options include:

• Variable Frequency Drive for static inlet

pressure control.

I-Damper System for source purging.

• PurgeJldIe Make-up Air Manifold for

VOC-FREETM Adsorption/Oxidation Systems

· PROCESS DESCRIPTION

The patented VaG-FREE ""Goncentrator System Is a proprietary process developed to remove low ,

· concentrations of VaGs from high airflows. FREES, ING.'s VaG-FREE"" System combines the technology

of two different processes, Adsorption and Oxidation, to achieve VaG removal and destruction at the

most reasonable cost available.

,Exhaust from your process, with very low VaG concentrations, Is routed to hydrophobic zeolite cells. The

VaGs are contained within the zeolite by a physical process called adsorption. The vac free air exits the

adsorber section and Is routed to the stack for exhaust to the atmosphere. When a cell can hold no more

VaGs; the bed is segregated to prepare for the regeneration process and a newly regenerated adsorber

cell returns Qn line to .replace the now ~egregated section. ..

To regenerate a cell, hot air from the thermal or catalytic oxidizer Is used to preheat fresh air to maintain

an optimum temperature for desorption of the VaGs from the zeolite. This warm air is passed through the

zeolite cell at a very low floW rate, and, once having released the VaGs, routed to the oxidizer for thermal

destruction of the vacs. .

ance the desorption process Is complete, the zeolite section is returned to the adsorption process, to

continue the cycle.

SPECIAL FEATURES of the VOC-FREETM SYSTEM

The patented VaC-FREE"" system provides many features that establish Its Superiority In the market.

LOWEST OUTLET VOC SPECIFICATIONS

The use of High Silica Zeqlites, which are crystalline molecular sieves, offers the shortest mass tr,msfer

zone of any adsorbents; especially for dilute streams and high flows, as I'i.the case here. The VaC-FREE

"" system design, with the small particle size enables the redu'ctlon of the mass transfer zone even

further.

The VaC-FREE "" system Is designed such that more than one aclsorptlon cell Is on adsorption while at

least one celf Is on.regeneration. The unit Is designed to switch a module to regeneration just before vac

·breakthrough. At this point, all the other cells on adsorption have only been partially saturated; thus, the

outlets of all the other cells have no vacs In them. This configuration affords the lowest outlet vac

levels, unlike other systems where certain VaG breakthrough Is experienced all through the cycle.

FREES, INC. Is the only company to have demonstrated overall capture and destruction efficiency In

·eXCess of 99%, with guaranteed efficiencies of 95% minimum. Tha combination of the sh~mass transfer

zone and high adsorption capacity, along with the advantages of the fixed bed VaG-FREE System ·design offers the best technical solution for vae abatement. Furthermore, FREES, INC.'s years of

experience In air flow management systems enables FREES, INC. to offer the VaC-FREE TW System at the

lowest possible cost.

tow OPERATING COST

The VaC-FREE '"' system Is one of the most ~nergy efficient abatement technologies aVailable~ The entire

system Is qesigned to maximize the vacs In an air stream, and use them to fuel the oxidizer for

destruction. The vacs In the air stream are concentrated by a factor of more than 15 while the air stream

sent to the oxidizer Is significantly lower. These two points work together to provide an operating cost

which Is a fraction of other vac abatement systems operating costs. Additionally, FREES, INC. Installs

heat exchangers to provide maximum heat recovery.

Additionally, there Is no need to maintain heat within the system during off-hours. The VOG-FREE""

System can be shut completely off at the end of a shift, or for the weekend, and will be ready to start

working immediately on the next workday. There is no need for warm-up time or supplementary fuel to

maintain an oxidation.temperature for the next work shift, as is the case for an RTO.

ADAPTABILITY TO PROCESS CHANGE

The VaG-FREE'" System is designed for maximum flexibility with minimum effort and cost.

The main process fan is controlled by a variable frequency drive, with a constant static pressure at

the system inlet. This allows for 5:1 turn down ratios on the system, with no adju.stments to the .

VaG·FREE'" itself. Thus, any variation in flows can be handled automatically without disrupting

normal operation.· , . ,

, The, PLC is set to regenerate the zeolite beds at 75% saturation, allowing for periodic increased

vac loading with no adjustments to the system. '

• The zeolite mixture adsorbs a wide range of VaGs and is tailored to fit your application. Most

changes in formulations do not require any changes, but if necessary, such changes can quickly

and easily be cOmpleted in the field.

Theadsorber module design utilizes fixed bed horizontal design such that system capacity

increases can be met with minimum addition~1 costs, as additional zeolite can easily be added to

the cell.,

Although the regeneration cycle normally takes place at 350°F to 450°F, temperatures of 600F to

700 F can be used occasionally to remove any high boilers. No other adsorption system provides

this flexibility. '

If there is any possibility that solvent composition will ever be changed, or airflows will be

increased, the VaG-FREE'" System is the only system available with the options to make these

changes with simplified field modifications and minimal expense incurred.

MECHANICAL SIMPLICITY

The FREES VaG~FREE '" sysiem is designed with a long life and minimal maintenance in mind. The

system has fewer moving parts than other systems available today.

The VaG I"den air passes through fixed adsorber beds rather than the rotary wheel. The only mOVing part

in the VOC-FREETIoI.adsorber is a gear driven valve which turns only when necessary, to regenerate a

spent adsorber bed. The-valve will make a full circle once every 3 to 6 ho~rs.

The VaG·FREE '" system,is completely automated, with no operator interface required. The variable

frequency drive for the process fan maintains a steady negative pressure at the system inlet, allowing

variations in airflow with no need for adjustment. '

FEED PRE·TREATMENT

There Is no requirement for feed pretreatment other than particulate removal for the vaG·FREE '" system.

Use of activated carbon for adsorption requires the inlet to be pretreated to lower the humidity, while use

of rotary wheel requires activated carbon pre filters to remove heavy boilers. At higher than 60% relative

humidity, the adsorption capacity for VaGs on activated carbon is drastically reduced. The use of , hydrophobic Zeolites allows for air streams of greater tihan 90% relative humidity and the fixed bed

adsorption enables higher regeneration temperature so that the VaG-FREE'" system is able to handle

high relative humidity and high boilers in the feed. Furthermore, unlike activated carbon, zeolite does not

develop a "heel" of residual, non-regenerated hydrocarbons. Thus, the adsorptive capacity of zeolite does

not decrease over time. Eventually, the "heel" in activated carbon seriously diminishes its efficiency and

adds to operations costs.

Additionally, the volume of Zeolite used and the design of the system allows for variable solvent loading

characteristics, with no need for an activated'carbon pre-filter used to fJatten out inlet concentration,

spikes. ' ,

SAFETY
Frees. Inc. I Emissions Control Page 3 of 3

Activated carbon has frequently been used for solvent removal from various applications. Many systems

have experienced fires due to the chemical reactions of ketones and other such compounds that generate

heat due to exothermic reactions. .

The zeolites utilized in the vae-FREE TJ.l system are inorganic; therefore, not subject to the chemical

reaction which causes the fires. The zeolite is non~reactivel and does not burn.

J,Q SCREENING TbBLES

The interpretation or definition of a "rural" or "urban"

area within the framework of this technique is intended to be

rather broad and flexible. The rationale for having rural and

urban tables st~s from the need to account for th~ coupled .ffect of point lource emissions and background ch~istry on

ozone fot"lUtion. ~ackqround chemistry in the context of this,

procedure refers to a characterization of the ambient atmospheric ch~istry into which a point lource ~its. The un~erlying model

runl uled to develop the rural table (Table 1) were performed

with Ipatially invariant background chemiltry repre.entative o~

·clean" continental U.S. areas; Hodel runs used to develop the

urban table (Table 2) were based 'on background chemiltry

incorporating daily t~poral fluctuationl of NOx and hydrOCarbons

.ssociated with a typical urban atmo.phere (refer to Appendix A

for detaill regardingbackground'ch~istrY). ~ackground

chemistry is an importan~ factor in estimating ozone formation;

however, characterization of background chemistry is perhaps the

most difficult aspect of reactive plume modeling because of data

Icarcity and the level of resources required to measure or model (t~porAlly and Ipatially) the components necessary to

characterize the ambient atmospheric along the traject~ry of a

point lource plum••

Recogni:ing the,conflicting needs ,of using .imple , 'characterizations of background chemistries and applying this

Icreening technique in .ituation. where lources are located in or

ilnpact on areas Which can not be simply'categorind, the

(1) It the lource location and downwind impact area can be

described a. rural and where ozone exceedantes have 'never been

reported, choose the rural area table.

(2)' If the lource location and down~ind impact area are of urban

character, Choose the urban area table.

(J) If an urban based source potentially can impact a downwind

rural area, or a rural based lource can potentially impact a

downwind urban area, use the highest value obtained from apply:nq
