Thermal post-combustion system as backup for combined heat and power system
The thermal incinerator we developed for this potato processing plant was a most welcome solution to the odour problems in the area. The fact that it also integrates perfectly with the planned extra production capacity proved to be the icing on the cake.
We supplied our client with a gas-fuelled system and fitted it with an extra flue gas condenser. The condensation heat of the water being reclaimed from the flue gasses pushes the incinerator’s thermal efficiency over the 100%. By also optimising the baking fume extraction system, we got the baking fume condenser to operate at maximum capacity, which in turn allowed us to get rid of the highly polluting ventilation fans.
