Regenerative Carbon Adsorption Systems

Carbon Adsorption Technology for VOC/HAP Emission Control and Solvent Recovery

Carbon adsorption technology from MEGTEC is a simple and effective method for removing volatile organic compounds, solvents and odors from manufacturing process emissions. MEGTEC uses activated carbon because it is the most versatile of all adsorbents due to its broad pore size distribution and pore volume, which makes it suitable for virtually any process generating solvent-laden air.

MEGTEC's carbon adsorption technology can comply with the lowest emission limits, achieving removal efficiencies of more than 99.9 percent. It is the ideal emission control solution for removing VOCs and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) from manufacturing processes that utilize valuable solvents. When recovered, these solvents can be reused in the process, thereby generating substantial savings over other emission control methods that destroy the solvents.

MEGTEC Adsorption Systems are available in a wide range of flows and configurations to meet any process requirement or space constraint, such as:

• Air flows from 400 scfm/680 Nm3/h to over 300,000 scfm/510,000 m3/h
• Solvent concentrations from less than 1 ppmv to over 10,000 ppmv
• Solvent loads of less than 1 kg/h to more than 8,000 kg/h
• Low air flows with high solvent loads
• Complex VOC mixtures
• Waste water clean up
• Corrosive solvent mixtures
• Combinations of the above

MEGTEC utilizes the highest-quality components and fabrication techniques in the manufacture of these systems, and the Adsorption Systems:

• Are proven designs and over 100 years of experience supplying regenerable carbon systems. Designs are developed from the combined experience of well known names in the industry worldwide: Sutcliffe Speakman, Sutcliffe Croftshaw, Vara and Barnebey & Sutcliffe.
• Have a proven up-time rate of 99 percent
• Are tested in-house before shipment, which minimizes the commissioning phase
• Are supplied either as pre-assembled skid-mounted systems, or on a turnkey basis, with installation carried out by MEGTEC
