Thermal oxidation is a process that destroys hazardous gases at high temperatures and converts them into carbon dioxide, water vapor and heat before releasing them into the atmosphere. To complete this process, an industrial process’ exhaust stream, laden with Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), enters a heat exchange bed and passes through media to be preheated. Then the stream enters the combustion chamber and is heated more using burners until it reaches the optimal temperature for combustion to complete the oxidation process. Once complete, clean gas is exhausted through another packed media bed which cools the air and heats the media before the clean gas is released into the atmosphere.
