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

High air volumes with low VOC concentrations, and particulate control demands are the primary considerations for treating emissions in the paint and coated product industry. Understanding the particulate make-up and how to treat the large volume airstreams, while keeping operating costs low, is key to a successful solution.

Rebuild & Upgrade Existing Systems

Kono Kogs’ Advantage

Paint and Painted Products are one of the most common applications for our new & refurbished RTO systems. If a VOC rotary concentrator can be applied, significant energy savings are possible over a stand-alone RTO. Of course, our refurbished RTO systems can be a reliable solution at a significant capital cost savings... we have the world’s largest inventory of systems. Our much shorter lead times may help with your new, expedited project.     

Getting our start in 1996 rebuilding, refurbishing and upgrading nearly every regenerative thermal oxidizer (RTO) model that was ever on the market we can properly assess the viability of extending the life of your existing RTO, or replacing it. We build new systems and offer refurbished units as well, which will allow us to offer the best long-term solution for your facility and application.
