Advantages of the IVOC‑X® technology

IVOC‑X [Inno­va­tive Vola­tile Orga­nic Com­pound – Oxi­da­tion] is the first manu­fac­tu­rer world­wide to com­bine the advan­ta­ges of cata­ly­sis with heat sto­rage in modu­lar, com­pact and easily sca­lable air pol­lu­tion con­trol sys­tems for vola­tile orga­nic com­pounds (VOCs), achie­ving unpre­ce­den­ted energy effi­ci­ency and long-term sta­bi­lity com­pared to exis­ting sys­tems on the market.

Technology Advantages

Energy efficiency & cost saving

• Effi­ci­ency gain in par­tial-load ope­ra­tion – volume flow of 0–100 % load freely adaptable
• Depen­ding on the pol­lutant, ope­ra­ting tem­pe­ra­ture is redu­ced from 800–950°C (RTO) to 120–340°C
• Short hea­ting pha­ses and standby ope­ra­tion wit­hout cooling
• Low pres­sure loss
• High ther­mal sta­bi­lity with the use of cera­mic sto­rage media
• Fle­xi­bly con­trol­led heat exch­an­ger, degree of heat reco­very freely adjustable
• Fully auto­ma­tic sys­tem adapt­a­tion to pro­cess conditions
• Effi­ci­ency inde­pen­dent of tem­pe­ra­ture difference
• Increase in occu­pa­tio­nal safety, long-term sta­bi­lity and envi­ron­men­tal protection

Availability, space requirement & flexibility

• Sca­la­bi­lity by modu­lar struc­ture and cou­pling of stan­dard systems
• Easy instal­la­tion – Plug and Play
• Easy to inte­grate in exis­ting systems
• Eco­no­mic alter­na­tive to adsorp­tion by an almost com­plete heat reco­very – wit­hout chan­ging adsorb­ents and dis­po­sal costs, no per­son­nel costs and no downtimes

• Maximum flexibility for pollutant concentration and volume flow

  

Legal requirements

• Sui­ta­ble for odor absorp­tion and oxi­da­tion of trace gases
• Reduc­tion of pol­lutant con­cen­tra­ti­ons ≤ 12g/​m3 below Clean Air Act & MAK limits possible

• Degradation rate at the highest level

Environmental protection

• IVOC‑X® offers a signi­fi­cantly bet­ter energy and CO₂ balance than other ther­mal sys­tems on the market

• Lowest energy consumption despite high degradation rate

Sustainability

IVOC X® is com­mit­ted to sus­tainable manage­ment and pro­ces­ses from day one – intern­ally and extern­ally. In addi­tion to low energy con­sump­tion, less com­plex peri­pherals, redu­ced instal­la­tion and insu­la­tion efforts, and lower requi­re­ments for the chim­ney (more com­pact design or eli­mi­na­tion) pro­vide addi­tio­nal savings in raw mate­ri­als and reduce ancil­lary and fol­low-up costs.

The mate­ri­als and com­pon­ents used are sel­ec­ted accor­ding to high qua­lity stan­dards to ensure long ser­vice life. IVOC‑X® sys­tems do not con­tain any addi­tio­nal con­su­ma­bles and can easily be adapted to other pro­cess requi­re­ments due to their modu­lar design wit­hout having to deve­lop a com­ple­tely new con­cept or system.
