McGill AirClean's ThermaGrid™ RTOs Reduce Potential for Maintenance Problems
McGill AirClean's ThermaGrid regenerative thermal oxidizers (RTOs) use a proprietary gridded-ceramic heat transfer block that controls VOC emissions and other chemical emissions at high-destruction efficiencies with low-energy consumption and minimal maintenance. These RTO systems are available in economical two-bed designs and in three-bed designs for increased VOC removal efficiency. The straight-through flow design stays clean and resists plugging and maintenance problems that plague other RTO designs.

When cleaning is required it is quick and easy. For example, silicon dioxide deposits from the combustion of HMDS can be removed from the gridded ceramic heat transfer blocks pneumatically using standard plant compressed air. The process takes less than one minute per block.
McGill AirClean's RTO systems combine effective destruction of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) with economical and dependable operation to comply with emission regulations at the lowest possible cost.
The company has over 40 years of experience solving air pollution control problems for boilers, furnaces, incinerators, and a variety of industrial processes.
