Ecopure VAR: residues-free exhaust gas incineration
In the light of increasingly stringent limits the safe and complete oxidation of exhaust gases and liquid residues requires special equipment that is characterised by a combination of different process measures. Besides the technical measures needed to ensure efficient combustion and safety to a high degree, increasing importance has to be attached to a high level of purity of the treated flue gas.
Suitable methods are applied for the removal of inorganic residual products such as halogenated compounds and sulphurous substances from the flue gas. If nitrogen compounds are contained in the exhaust gases or liquid residues, then several denox methods can be applied. For dioxin and furan removal there are also several possible methods.
The Ecopure-VAR modular abatement system allows for the flexible combination of these methods.
The following fluid streams can be treated with a VAR-unit:
- Exhaust gases with fluctuating flow rates and pollutant concentrations high enough to be within the explosive range
- Exhaust gases with an oxygen content of 0 - 21 vol.%
- Exhaust gases burning only with a back-up flame, selfburning lean gases and selfburning rich gases
- Exhaust gases containing halogenated compounds, nitrogen, and sulphur. This group also includes all toxic and carcinogenic substances
- Residual liquids and waste solvents, plus waste water containing dissolved or emulsified organic and/or inorganic substances that are difficult to remove. Waste and residual liquids containing salts and/or a salt-binding substances.
