Abstract
In resent years, the emission control technology of volatile organic compounds (VOC) is seriously required. Babcock-Hitachi K.K. has been developing the regenerative catalytic oxidizer system (RCO) that can provide the VOC destruction and high energy efficiencies under lower temperature, associated with catalytic oxidation. The main features of the RCO equipment are a simplified rotary distributing valve, the catalysts of poison resistant by halogenated compounds and the regenerators with the enhanced heat transfer. This paper describes the elemental studies and the initial performance of this equipment.
