Background knowledge

Frequently asked questions

Answers on technology, legislation and processes.

Which industries need catalytic treatment of solvent vapours?2026-10-15T13:08:53+02:00

Catalytic exhaust air treatment is required or economically sensible in all industries that release volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These include industrial painting and coating lines, the chemical industry, printing and packaging companies (flexographic and gravure printing), woodworking (gluing and drying) and the plastics processing industry. Treating the exhaust air protects the environment and prevents odour nuisance in the neighbourhood.

Which documents do you need to design a catalyst?2026-10-15T13:08:53+02:00

For a reliable design, we need information on the exhaust gas or exhaust air, the plant and the requirements. Important factors are the flow rate, the temperature at the intended installation point, the gas composition with the relevant pollutant concentrations and details of moisture, dust and possible catalyst poisons such as sulphur, siloxanes or silicones. We also need information on the plant itself: engine or combustion type, output, fuel, process description and mode of operation, i.e. continuous operation, part load or batch operation. On the requirements side, we need the permit or the emission values to be met and, if available, recent measurement reports. For retrofits or replacement elements, drawings, photos and dimensions of the existing housing are helpful, as are details of the available space and the permissible pressure drop. Not all data has to be complete to get started, as missing values can often be determined together. Send us the documents you have, and you will usually receive initial feedback within 24 hours.

How fast is the response time?2026-03-27T13:45:09+01:00

As an agile company, you will usually receive initial feedback within 24 hours and a technical concept promptly.

Do you offer chemical cleaning of catalysts?2026-10-15T13:08:53+02:00

Yes. Contaminated catalysts (e.g. due to ash or oil) can often be regenerated using our special washing processes, which significantly extends their service life.

Do you supply replacement catalytic converters for third-party housings?2025-12-17T12:49:31+01:00

Absolutely. We manufacture or source high-performance components that can be seamlessly integrated into enclosures from other manufacturers, often with better performance than the original.

Can you modernize existing systems (retrofit)?2025-12-17T12:49:17+01:00

Yes, that is one of our core competencies. We analyze your existing system and integrate state-of-the-art catalyst technology into existing housings to reduce investment costs.

What is the difference between SCR and oxidation catalytic converters?2026-03-27T13:38:01+01:00

An oxidation catalytic converter reduces carbon monoxide (CO) and formaldehyde through oxidation. An SCR catalytic converter (Selective Catalytic Reduction) minimizes nitrogen oxides (NOx) by adding a reducing agent (urea/AdBlue). We often combine both technologies.

What system sizes do you offer solutions for?2025-12-17T12:48:42+01:00

We scale flexibly. From compact CHP units (from approx. 100 kW) to large industrial plants or waste incineration in the megawatt range, we develop suitable concepts.

Do your systems comply with the 44th BImSchV?2025-12-17T12:48:15+01:00

Yes, our SCR systems and oxidation catalytic converters are specially designed to safely and permanently comply with the strict limits of the 44th BImSchV for nitrogen oxides (NOx), formaldehyde and carbon monoxide.
