In complying with the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA), chemical manufacturing plants may choose among several volatile organic compounds (VOC) emissions control options. These include recuperative and regenerative thermal oxidation, catalytic oxidation, carbon adsorption, hybrid systems and biofiltration. This article discusses the pros and cons of each of these options, and the applications in which each option may provide the most benefits. Other factors in selecting a VOC control system are also listed.
