Flare Industries’ FIRECAT Thermal Oxidizers are incinerators that maintain a specific destruction temperature and residence time to ensure high destruction efficiencies (98% – 99.99%). A FIRECAT system precisely monitors and controls the flow of air, assist gas, in order to obtain prescribed temperatures in the combustion chamber. This type of equipment is ideal for sensitive areas that require extremely low emissions, reduced flame visibility, minimal heat and noise, ease of emissions sampling, and smokeless combustion.
Recuperative Thermal Oxidizers are complex incineration systems that employ shell and tube heat exchangers, boilers, or hot oil heaters to recover energy from high temperature flue gases. These systems can utilize a recuperative cycle to minimize fuel gas consumption, allowing for economical operation. Moreover, this type of equipment is ideal for sensitive areas that require heat recovery, extremely low emissions, minimal noise, and smokeless combustion. Catalytic and combination thermal/catalytic versions of this equipment are also available from Flare Industries.
