Phoenix™ Odor Control System Provides Cost-Effective Treatment of H2S from Air Streams

(PITTSBURGH) -- November 12, 1997 -- Calgon Carbon Corporation has announced the introduction of the Phoenix™ line of odor control systems, which were presented at the Water Environment Federation Annual Conference and Exposition (WEFTEC) in Chicago in October.

The Phoenix system (patent pending) was designed by Calgon Carbon Corporation's research and development team to remove odors caused by H2S in applications like municipal wastewater treatment and remote municipal pumping and lift stations. The system works with Calgon Carbon's patented Centaur®-HP activated carbon, providing a more cost-effective alternative to current technologies like conventional granular deep-bed carbon odor control systems.

One of the highlights of the Phoenix system is its unique ability to remain on-line while the Centaur-HP is being water washed. The system is segmented into banks, which can be shut off and regenerated individually. Water washing for 60 minutes restores the original H2S adsorptive capacity of the carbon within each bank.

Phoenix is available in air flows of 4,000-30,000 CFM. The system requires no chemicals, boasts a smaller footprint than competing technologies and operates at a lower cost than deep-bed technologies.
