Regenerative Catalytic Oxidizer

Regenerative Catalytic Oxidizer

Ceramic heat regeneration combined with catalytic oxidation for compatible VOC streams requiring continuous, energy-conscious treatment.

Equipment configuration

Designed around actual process conditions

RCO combines regenerative heat storage with a catalyst bed to lower oxidation temperature while retaining heat recovery. It is configured only after catalyst compatibility and process stability are confirmed.

How it works

Regenerative media recovers heat between flow cycles, while the catalyst promotes VOC oxidation at a lower temperature than conventional thermal oxidation.
