The Honeycat system comprised a compact skid mounted oxidiser designed to comply with the environmental emission limits demanded by the plant’s local regulatory authorities and minimise on-site installation time. According to AirProtekt md Trevor Lawton, the textile-processing project required an air pollution control system that was proven on this process. “The air pollution control system featured gas tight sealing to prevent localised emissions of toxic hydrogen cyanide gas,” he said. “Mindful of the local people living in nearby residential properties the system needed to be both highly effective at capturing and treating the hydrogen cyanide emissions as well as being very quiet in operation to avoid noise pollution.”
The low-maintenance electrically pre heated abatement system is capable of running at low catalyst operating temperatures which helps to minimise running costs, thermal stress and ensures a long operating life.
“The project’s consultant recommended our equipment to the end customer because he had been impressed with AirProtekt’s proven track record in working with catalyst technology used on similar process applications around the world,” added Lawton. www.airprotekt.co.uk
