KATASORB™ A

Active Carbon Filtering System for Low-Load Exhaust Streams

Scope of Application

For low-load exhaust streams
For crafts and manufacturing industry
For organic and inorganic volatile compounds
Also suitable for halogenated compounds
For varying mixtures of contaminants

Features

KATASORB™ A covers waste gas streams up to 6.000 m³/h. Each system is designed individually. A particle filter can be added. In addition, PURATEX can be used instead of active carbon or in an adsorbent combination. The system can be designed to accommodate future expansions.

Technical Data

Supporting filter:	bag filter or precoating filte
Adsorbent:	grained activated carbon and/or PURATEX
Blower:	radial blower, output up to 6.000 m³/h

For low loads and/or inorganic substances: KATASORB A is a coal-based adsorption system for exhaust treatment which has a number of important advantages over conventional activated-charcoal systems.

The benefits of KATASORB™ A

Low purchase cost

The system does not need any peripheral equipment for desorption. It integrates smoothly into laser treatment plants.

Simple handling

The adsorbent is enclosed in cartridges which are changed as a whole: no mess, no dust, no health hazard.

Individual design

Each system is designed separately, taking into consideration the details of the waste gas situation and the conditions on site.

Low running costs

Long-life adsorbent, no regenerate to dispose of, low energy consumption on account of small pressure drop and operation at room temperature.

Integration

Can be integrated into existing control systems.

Flexibility

Modular, flexible and expansible design, different adsorbents to choose from, including the chemisorbent PURATEX: KATASORB™ A fits changing requirements.

Safety

Activated charcoal adsorbs a wide range of compounds. Through the thin layers the heat of adsorption is carried off effectively: The danger of self-ignition is averted.

Universality

For every branch in crafts and industry that makes use of chemicals or works on materials: laser processing, chemical production, coatings, surface treatment and many more.
