<p>A recycling cooking oven (10) for cooking food includes a cooking chamber (22) for receiving a stream of hot air from an upstream thermal plenum (20) via plurality of openings in the cooking chamber, and the cooking of such foods adding oxidizable components to the hot air. A blower (24) circulates the stream of hot air substantially a continuous travel path. A main catalytic converter (50) is disposed in the continuous travel path for flamelessly oxidizing the oxidizing components leaving the cooking chamber. A vent (60) diverts an auxiliary vent stream of hot air from the main catalytic converter into the vent; and an auxiliary catalytic converter (62) for flamelessly oxidizing oxidizable components in the hot air of the auxiliary vent stream.</p> |
