FLSmidth wins order for CataMax(TM) catalytic solution filter in the US
FLSmidth has secured an order for engineering, supply, and installation of the new CataMaxTM catalytic solution for a US cement producer. The order includes a new filter installation with catalytic elements, ID fan, flue gas ducts and dust transport equipment.
The CataMax catalytic solution uses ceramic elements with an embedded catalyst; the porous elements not only remove dust particles from the flue gases, but the catalyst embedded will also remove total hydrocarbons (THCs) and organic hazardous air pollutants (O-HAPs) in the flue gas.
"The CataMax(TM) catalytic solution is a patent-pending technology from FLSmidth, which will help US cement producers to achieve compliance with the ever stricter environmental regulations. We are already seeing an increased interest in this technology from other customers in the US as well as from customers in Europe and Asia where similar legislative restrictions are also expected in the future," says Jacob Sondergaard, Vice President, FLSmidth Airtech US, part of FLSmidth's Product Companies Division.
