RTO (Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer) is a device used to control the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in industrial production processes. RTO regenerative incinerators convert VOCs into carbon dioxide and water vapor through high-temperature oxidation, thereby reducing environmental pollution.
The combustion temperature of RTO regenerative incinerators usually needs to be maintained at a high level to ensure that VOCs are effectively decomposed. In general, combustion temperatures range from 800 to 1,100 °C, and some processes may require higher temperatures to ensure efficient decomposition of VOCs and compliance with emission standards. This temperature range ensures that the vast majority of organic compounds are adequately oxidized, while also avoiding by-products such as nitrogen oxides (NOx).
In practice, the choice of combustion temperature depends on a variety of factors, including the type of VOCs, concentration, flow rate, and emission standards. When operating an RTO, the combustion temperature needs to be precisely controlled to ensure that environmental requirements are met without excessive energy consumption.
Since the operation of RTO regenerative incinerators involves high-temperature operation, safety and efficiency are very important considerations. As a result, such equipment is usually equipped with advanced safety control systems and thermally efficient heat storage materials to ensure reliable, efficient and safe operation. In China, the use of such equipment is also subject to relevant environmental regulations and safety standards to ensure compliance with national requirements for environmental protection and industrial production safety.
