Original abstract
Air polluted by volatile organic compounds (VOC) or carbon monoxide is a consequence of industrial production. However, it can be encountered in the municipal sector too. Thermal processing can be considered due to its simplicity and reliability as the most effective way of the polluted air treatment including waste to energy. A quite new and original solution consists in using a compact, fully integrated unit [1] which has been developed recently. Since the combustion chamber equipped with a burner is installed inside a recuperative cylindrical heat exchanger this unit has several advantages. The equipment occupies small space, and heat losses from the combustion chamber are effectively utilized to share in preheating the polluted air. Therefore the equipment has lower weight and increased thermal efficiency comparing with a conventional arrangement. Possible modifications of equipment arrangement (e.g. that with catalytic bed) based on combined experimental and computational approach as well as a feedback from industrial operation can be considered as indispensable advantage of this approach.
