AFTERBURNER UNITS
These units are designed to destruct the noxious flue gases emitted by various industrial processes. The units are capable of raising the flue temperature to a point where all hydrocarbon or organic wastes are successfully destructed into harmless gases. The afterburners can be made to suit existing installations in either the vertical or horizontal. Typically larger flows and space restrictions may dictate the need for horizontal units.
It is a requirement that, as a minimum, afterburner temperature control is fitted to ensure the process cannot start until the unit is at incineration temperature.

Older processes can be made to meet modern EPA requirements and thus help reduce air pollution.
Occupational health risks are substantially reduced.
Efficiency can be increased by allowing staff in closer proximity to noxious processes, and thus improve handling requirements.
Higher throughput can be achieved in processes, which were previously limited by smoke emissions.
