The Cost Effective Solution for High Volume,
Low Concentration Process Streams

The Anguil Rotor Concentrator/Oxidizer is designed to adsorb Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) from a high volume, low concentration airstream and to oxidize the VOCs in a reduced volume, high concentration process stream.

The high volume airstream is passed through a rotor concentrator wheel where the VOCs are adsorbed in the bed, purifying the high volume air. This high volume air is then exhausted to atmosphere. The concentrator wheel rotates continuously, transporting adsorbed VOCs into a desorption section. In the desorption section, the adsorbed organics are desorbed from the adsorptive media with a low volume heated airstream. This low volume, high VOC-laden air is then processed by an oxidizer. The operational cost of the oxidizer is substantially reduced via this concentration process.

The Rotor Concentrator/Oxidizer is often the most cost effective technology for processing high volume, low VOC concentration streams. While the capital cost of a system is competitive with other technologies, the true savings is realized in reduced operating costs. The chart below illustrates the fuel cost savings achievable with an Anguil Concentrator/Oxidizer system.

The Anguil Integrated Rotor Concentrator
System Solution

The Anguil Concentrator/Oxidizer combines two technologies to achieve VOC capture and destruction. All Anguil oxidation technologies are available for integration with the Rotor Concentrator.

System Components

Rotor Concentrator/Oxidizer Systems include a process fan capable of processing the full volume of exhaust at the required pressure drop of adsorber, the rotor concentrator bed material, a catalytic or thermal oxidizer with fan, reactor and burner, interconnecting ductwork, exhaust stack, and PLC controls.

Safety Shutdowns
The system will shut down safely and automatically if any of the following occur:

Electrical power loss to the control panel
High temperature in the system
Excessive outlet temperature
Burner malfunction

The first-out shutdown detector will indicate the cause of any shutdown.
