Chemical Processing

Workers at a chemical processing plant's exterior

Kono Kogs, Inc. has decades of expertise in meeting compliance and optimization demands.

Chemical manufacturing transforms organic and inorganic raw materials to form a variety of solid, liquid, and gaseous products. Sometimes treatment of these air emissions is best accomplished with thermal oxidizers (TOX) or regenerative thermal oxidizers (RTO). Considerations such as corrosive content, explosive concentrations, and especially safety and reliability are evaluated for proper application of an oxidizer for the emission control need.
