Our Key Technology: The Pulvaporizator®

Thanks to its revolutionary thermal oxidizer called Pulvaporizator®, VICHEM offers a
treatment of hazardous or very hazardous waste, while maintaining an extremely low level
of dioxins and nitrogen oxides. The Pulvaporizator®'s concept is designed as one of the
most advanced low-NOx & low-dioxin thermal oxidizer. The Pulvaporizator® atomizes and
vaporizes the waste in one single step, hence achieving:
- Complete destruction: DRE > 99.9999% due to high turbulence
- No risk of plugging with salt or other type of solids
- Treatment of high viscosity liquid waste with solids & salts, & all pulverulent solids without
using a rotary kiln
- Simultaneous processing of different liquid streams
- A capacity ranging from 0 to 120%
- Treatment of very low heating value waste
- Use of all types of fuel as heavy oil or hydrogen

Scope Of Supply

From engineering to commissioning including all equipment as heat recovery system, acid
production, De-NOx system, gas filtration, etc…
