Recuperative Thermal Oxidizer

A more thermally-efficient design, the Recuperative Thermal Oxidizer passes the hot exhaust gas through a heat exchanger, heating the incoming process air. This way, the burner in the oxidizer only needs to provide a fraction of the heat load required for a successful combustion reaction. The heat exchanger and additional ductwork costs more money upfront, but the recuperative design requires less natural gas during operation.
