Patents for utility model of the catalytic unit are obtained

Safe Technologies IG together with the Boreskov Institute of Catalysis of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Novosibirsk) received a number of patents (№ 189030, № 190064, № 190066) for the utility model of the catalytic unit – a part of the industrial emissions treatment plant designed for catalytic afterburning of emissions containing a wide range of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The patent has been obtained within research and development project of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation on the topic of “Highly efficient catalytic equipment for environment protection”.

The main element of the utility model — a widely used already high — efficiency glass-fiber based catalyst — was also developed jointly by the Safe Technologies and the Institute of Catalysis. An innovation here is the application of thermal paint, which changes its color depending on the temperature. This allows to reduce the production cost of such equipment, especially for laboratory research, eliminating the necessity to install thermocouples and the related equipment. The catalytic reaction temperature is an important parameter to predict its course.
