Numerical investigation of the new regenerator-recuperator scheme of VOC oxidizer

The new regenerator-recuperator scheme of filtration combustion VOC oxidizing reactor is under research. Its main characteristics, such as maximum temperature of reactor, temperature of exhaust gases, NO emission and others are calculated and compared with the same characteristics of other types of reactors (co-flow filtration combustion wave reactor, counter-flow heat exchange recuperative reactor, reverse flow regenerative reactor). It is shown that the regenerator-recuperator scheme provides important advantages (wide range of flow rate, and equivalence ratio of the combustible, low temperature of the exhaust gases) compared to conventional schemes.
