Features and Benefits

of Sterling Designed Thermal Oxidation Systems

GCD should be on your approved vendors list for design and supply of integrated thermal oxidation systems because of our experience and impressive international track record. We have in excess of 1000 reference sites internationally.

Sterling thermal oxidation systems are designed and manufactured:

To comply with emissions standards in all parts of the world, including the most stringent requirements in California or Taiwan.
To maximise thermal and resource efficiencies by recovering waste heat in the form of steam or process preheat thereby reducing fuel and energy consumption.
To accommodate the utmost flexibility of operation by responding to all process requirements, including start-up, shut downs and upsets, whilst conforming to all engineering and safety standards.
To optimise reliability and reduce planned maintenance times.
To accommodate a wide range of waste stream flows from 1,000 scfm (0.45Nm³/s) to more than 100,000 scfm (45Nm³/s).
To treat a wide range of waste streams ranging from simple VOC's (Volatile Organic Compounds) to the most noxious, corrosive and difficult of chemical compounds.
As skid-mounted modules wherever possible to:
- Maximise in-factory pre-commissioning.
- Minimise on-site installation time.
- Minimise commissioning time.

In short Sterling Thermal Oxidation Systems are designed to provide the best possible outcome for:

Destruction efficiency.
Thermal efficiency.
Operating costs.
Capital costs.
