What is the Difference Between a Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer and a Recuperative Thermal Oxidizer?

Posted on August 17, 2019August 17, 2019 by Chuck Konowalski

While both are a type of Thermal Oxidizer, the difference between a Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer (RTO) and Recuperative Thermal Oxidizer is how these machines use heat recovery during the oxidation process. RTOs combine hot exhaust gas with cool gas and passes this mixture through several heat exchanger chambers, typically made out of ceramic. A Recuperative Oxidizer passes exhaust through air-to-air heat exchangers that heat cool gas.
