ABSTRACT:
A method of thermally oxidizing a gaseous component, e.g., including one or more volatile organic compounds, is disclosed. This method comprises passing an amount of an oxygen component, a controlled amount of a fuel component and an amount of a gaseous component to be thermally oxidized to a combustion zone to combust the oxygen component and the fuel component, to at least partially thermally oxidize the gaseous component and to form a gaseous effluent; contacting the gaseous effluent in a retention zone at conditions effective to thermally oxidize the gaseous component, and thereby form a flue gas; and controlling the amount of fuel component passed to the combustion zone based on the temperature in at least one of said combustion zone and said retention zone contacting occurs. A thermal oxidation apparatus useful for practicing the present method is also disclosed.
