Regenerative Thermal Oxidizers (RTO)

Regenerative thermal oxidizers (RTOs) typically have a 0.5 second to 1.0 second dwell time for most applications.

Feel free to check our used RTO inventory and get in contact with our sales and applications engineers at sales@konokogs.com to ensure that the system meets your needs. Quality-built refurbished regenerative thermal oxidizer (RTO) systems from KKI offer a long service life, can save you up to 40% compared to new units, and come with performance and parts warranties comparable to those of new systems.

Kono Kogs stands behind every refurbished RTO with warranties that match or exceed those of new equipment OEMs. We have a proven track record of meeting warranty commitments for parts and system performance across a wide range of customers from startups to Fortune 500 companies. Our experienced team provides ongoing technical and maintenance support both on-site, and remotely via KONOConnect to ensure your system operates reliably over the long term.

To ensure quality, we use only top-tier components, conduct thorough inspections, and upgrade parts as needed. Our collaborative planning and extensive oxidizer expertise help deliver flawless projects that our customers trust and recommend.

RTOs typically operate at 1500^o – 1600^o Fahrenheit depending upon the VOC characteristics. Thermocouples inside the chamber monitor temperature and adjust gas burner firing as needed. Adequate temperature is essential to ensure VOC destruction efficiency. In most cases a data log of chamber temperature is required for air quality compliance.

Regenerative thermal oxidizers (RTOs) have a heat recovery (efficiency) of 95% typically. This technology has the lowest operating cost of all thermal oxidizer systems – not to mention the longest service life and highest reliability. It’s even possible for an RTO to operate with no auxiliary fuel use whatsoever if process VOC concentration levels are >3-4% lower flammability limit (LFL).
