Catalytic Depuration Unit (CDU)

 

The Catalytic Depuration Unit virtually eliminates all the contaminants emissions. To this unit are also sent the gaseous effluent coming from the resin plant and the storage tank, if any.



The Catalytic Depuration Unit is equipped with the latest generation of platinum (Pt) based catalysts that is more durable and operates at lower temperature and with less pressure drops.



This guarantees that VOC levels (Volatile Organic Compounds) released to the atmosphere with the exhaust gas is well below the strictest allowable limits, making MAPCO ENGINEERING Formaldehyde Plant one of the world's cleanest  formaldehyde processes today available.


This unit allows also the increase of export steam production and thus the energy saving since hot cleaned gas are sent to a dedicated exchanger before leaving to the atmosphere.
