RTO / RCO Media

Applied Catalysts has the experience and technology to determine the best solution for each individual application. We manufacture oxidation catalysts (two way / CO & HC) and NSCR catalysts (three way/stoichiometric/CO, HC & NOx). We can also manufacture Diesel Oxidation Catalysts (DOC’s) and Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF’s).

 Applied Catalysts manufactures a full portfolio of catalysts, trademarked Abate VOC™, on varied supports. Depending on the application or style of catalytic oxidizer to be employed, ceramic or metal monolith, spheres, extrusions, or RCO Catalysts can all be manufactured to fit the system perfectly.

Many Industrial Air Pollution Control applications involve the removal of NOx compounds as part of the end users air permit.  Depending on the constituents in the exhaust stream, two types of catalyst can be used, SCR or NSCR.

Catalytic Oxidation can be used to eliminate even very low levels of odiferous compounds from processes such as food processing, meat smokehouses, animal rendering, as well as a variety of processes containing low levels of VOC’s such as architectural siding, printing, canning and laminating.

A catalytic ozone abater can effectively decompose the ozone in the air that is fed to the passenger cabin of high flying commercial jet aircraft.  Applied Catalysts has developed special oxidation catalysts that are very effective in eliminating ozone from the cabin air in passenger airplanes.

Using ceramic heat exchange media as RTO/RCO heat media, can allow an oxidation system to achieve up to 95% heat exchange efficiency.  Applied Ceramics via its partner, ACIChemshun, supplies MC-01 porcelain ceramic monolith heat exchange media.

In high flow/low VOC concentration applications, using a catalyst to lower operating costs of an RTO (Regenerative Thermal Oxidation), and converting it to an RCO (Regenerative Catalytic Oxidation) can make sense for many reasons.

Or perhaps you’re looking to add capacity to your existing RTO? Using catalysts and running at a lower temperature can increase the flow through your existing RTO by up to 20%.

Applied Catalysts’ broad RCO product line makes us the world’s premier RCO catalyst provider, with both precious-metal-based catalysts supported on monolith and saddles, as well as base-metal extruded rings.

As RTOs gain widespread use and market acceptance, Applied Catalysts Thermal Heat Media is fast becoming an industry standard.

Soil vapor extraction (SVE) is an in situ soil remediation technology in which a vacuum is applied to the soil to induce the controlled flow of air and remove volatile and some semivolatile contaminants from the soil.

Coals naturally contain a small percentage of sulfur, which becomes oxides of sulfur (SO2 and SO3) as the coal burns. Electrostatic precipitators (ESPs) are designed into a coal fired boiler’s flue system to remove fly-ash, using the level of SO3 produced during combustion of high (normal level) sulfur coal to condition, or control, the ash’s electrical resistivity so the ESPs are able to efficiently remove fly-ash.

Since 1980, Applied Catalysts have been leaders in wood-burning stove catalysts (www.firecatcombustors.com), and self-cleaning oven smoke eliminators for most brands of electric and gas kitchen ovens.

Most cooking applications routinely produce odors, VOC’s and particulates in the form of smoke. ACC provides custom metal monoliths designed and coated for:

• Fast-food convection ovens
• Char-broilers
• Pizza ovens

These solidly built, precisely coated catalysts will stand up for years to the rigors of both kitchen environments and the required ongoing cleaning procedures in those settings.
