LTB began developing processes for the treatment of hydrocarbons already in the 1960's.
At this time, we offer a wide variety of differing processes, from which we can select the system optimally suited to your needs, based on the basic conditions at your location.
Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzo-furans (PCDD/PCDF) are consolidated as dioxins in common language usage. They are created as a by-product of the manufacture of organic chlorine chemicals or from reactions to incineration.
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are comprised of a minimum of 2 benzene rings. These are created due to the incomplete burning of coal or petroleum products and are cancer-causing.
Referred to as halogen hydrocarbons or halogenated hydrocarbons, sometimes also to halon, hydrocarbons are so designated, when, in addition to carbon and hydrogen, one or more halogen fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine are contained. During oxidation, these are split off and must be additionally treated.
Hydrocarbon can change its gaseous state dependent on the vapour pressure through temperature changes. For this reason, this substance can be present as condensate in liquid form when gasses are cooled.
Siloxane is comprised of silicium and oxygen, with which it is linked. Hydrocarbons sit on the free ends. Silicon dioxide forms during oxidation, which, as a heavily adhesive amorphous dust, is difficult to clean.
