摘要 |
A regenerative thermal oxidizer system (20) for use in processing a contaminated fluid. The system includes a combustion chamber (22), a contaminated fluid feed duct (39), and at least a first (24) and a second (26) regenerator chambers in fluid communication with the combustion chamber (22). A regenerator half-chamber (21) is provided in fluid and thermal communication with the combustion chamber (22). A first flow control element (44) is provided for controlling a flow of fluid from the system fluid feed duct (39) to the first regenerator chamber (24), and a second flow control element (46) is provided for controlling a flow of fluid from the system fluid feed duct (39) to the second regenerator chamber (26). An intermittent supply duct (60) connects the system fluid feed duct (39) to the regenerator half-chamber (21). A third flow control element (62) controls flow of system feed fluid through the intermittent supply duct (60).
