Check our recently published article Using Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer’s to Replace Flares and Treat Fugitive Emissions.
Managing Director, Tasha Jamaluddin, draws on Epcon’s years of project experience handling fugitive emissions, specifically in the hydrocarbon production and logistics industry.
Featuring case studies, one from a Liquid Chemical Terminal and another from a Midstream Gathering Station, the piece outlines the benefits of utilizing an RTO as opposed to DFTO when replacing Flare technology.
While Direct Fired Thermal Oxidizers (DFTO), also known as Afterburners, have been the most common air pollution control device installed to replace open flares, there are applications in which Epcon’s engineers have opted for a Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer (RTO) as it proved to be a more effective and efficient solution, minimizing fuel consumption while better handling variable fluctuations and higher loading for a maximum DRE of Emissions.
