Application example in the rendering industry:
BABCOCK WANSON deodorising thermal oxidisers with heat recovery in the form of steam or thermal fluid offer a fully integrated and efficient solution with relatively low capital and running cost. For most plants this is the preferred option to deal with airborne effluent and odour problems.
Below is a typical flow diagram of such an installation in a rendering plant.
