Catalyst Services
The catalyst
is where oxidation takes place, stripping the process stream of unwanted
VOCs. So, of course, it is critical that the catalyst in your system
perform effectively at all times. A scheduled maintenance program with a
CSM field service engineer is the best way to ensure that the catalytic
oxidizer is operating at full strength.

Catalyst Testing
On-site
visual inspection is the first step, followed by a series of tests to
determine the operating efficiency of the unit. This step is crucial in
helping determine how the unit is performing against design criteria. CSM
tests examine process performance as well as electrical and mechanical
operation. A visual inspection and catalyst activity test will reveal
whether the catalyst is being masked, which could lead to plugging that can
significantly affect the performance of the abatement system.
Catalyst Regeneraton
If
your catalyst is discovered to be masked, ship the catalyst modules to CSM
headquarters in Mountainside, N.J. There, they will be thoroughly washed
and cleaned, then sent back to your plant as quickly as possible.
Catalyst Leasing
While
your catalyst is being regenerated, or if the catalyst bed is no longer
working, simply lease a catalyst from CSM until yours is returned or a
replacement has been installed, thus ensuring that your plant will
experience only minimal downtime.
