Note that the most common form of random packing is the saddle see photo although there are several other shapes that are sometimes employed.
Use of ceramic media used in rto.
Each rto system incorporates specialized ceramic media in the regenerator heat transfer bed to allow thermal rate efficiencies in excess of 95.
Today we would like to look at the different types of ceramic media used and explore how they affect rto operation.
What is ceramic media and what is it used for.
Effective ceramic media enable the rto to function correctly and a well functioning system supports continuing operations along with environmental compliance.
During the voc destruction process ceramic media is used to maintain the heat.
The media support grid is referred to as the cold face because this area is exposed only to inlet and exhaust gas temperatures as compared to the hot face temperatures in the combustion chamber of the oxidizer.
To understand the importance of and use for ceramic media you must first understand how an rto works.
Since there are a number of suppliers available it would be wise to verify that your oxidizer vendor is providing ceramic media from a proven source that will allow the end user to purchase replacement media directly from the manufacturer if it ever becomes necessary.
Ceramic media life expectancy.
Rto media optimize your regenerative thermal oxidizer s rto performance with saint gobain norpro s advanced heat transfer media.
The advantages of this type of media are 1 ease of installation and removal.
As well the ceramic media used in the regenerator makes the triton rto the most effective air pollution control equipment in the world.
Each cpi regenerative thermal oxidizer system is designed around the particular ceramic heat transfer matrix recommended for the application.
Between the cold face and the hot face is the ceramic heat exchanger column.
The rto heat recovery media is the ceramic materials used to recover and exchange waste heat.
Thermal heat transfer ceramic media.
Random packing was the first type of ceramic media used in rto applications and is still used today in certain applications.
The condition of a regenerative thermal oxidizer s rto ceramic media is crucial to system performance.
