Catalytic afterburning in catalytic oxidation systems (CATOX systems) is an application field in which C&CS has many years of experience and offers a wide range of precious metal and mixed oxide catalysts. In catalytic oxidation systems, unburned hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), as well as other organic compounds and chlorinated hydrocarbons (CHC) are catalytically converted into environmentally friendly products such as carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water.
Depending on the CATOX application, either bulk catalysts or monolithic honeycomb catalysts are used. High-performance catalyst solutions such as EnviCat 55068, EnviCat 2531, and EnviCat 5557 CKW are available for these applications, ensuring high removal efficiency and process stability.
Catalytic afterburning represents an efficient alternative to thermal afterburning and offers numerous technical and economic advantages:
• Reduced fuel consumption and therefore significant energy savings
• Lower operating temperatures and reduced energy demand
• Reduced thermal stress on plant components
• Automated operation with rapid heat-up time and simple handling
• Compact design compared to thermal systems (RTO)
• Easy installation and low maintenance requirements
• Possibility of utilizing residual energy for hot water generation
• Reliable compliance with low clean gas emission limits according to TA Luft regulations
Catalytic oxidation systems are used in numerous industrial sectors, including the coating industry, food and plastics industries, paint shops, the pharmaceutical and chemical industries, petrochemical plants and refineries, as well as energy and power generation facilities.
