Cleaner compressed air solutions
25 Feb 2014
There are some industries where the quality of the compressed air is critical - the chemicals industry being one such sector.
Virtually all manufacturing industries use compressed air.
There are many processes where a spark or ignition may be dangerous, making high quality, oil-free air very important.
Catalytic converters are a relatively new product solution to providing oil free compressed air. The principle is simple and the same as operating in millions of vehicles
The application of heat to a catalyst cuts down hydrocarbon chains with the end products carbon dioxide, water and very pure compressed air.
Some plant engineers may say “This is not applicable to our situation, we use 100% oil free compressors”.
What 100% oil free means from the compressor manufacturer is that no oil will be added during the compression process.
Atmospheric air contains a significant number of hydrocarbons which varies with location dependent on proximity to roads and industry.
The BEKOKAT catalytic converter will take out all the hydrocarbons independent of inlet conditions.
The product is ideal in the small number of critical applications where any oil would be potentially catastrophic.
