Calgon Carbon Announces Newest Odor Control System
Pittsburgh, PA — May 20, 2002 — Calgon Carbon Corporation
announced today the introduction of its latest municipal odor control
product, Phoenix XT™.
Calgon Carbon Corporation has been a provider of odor control products
to municipalities and industries around the world for over thirty
years. Wastewater treatment facility processes often produce odorous
emissions that must be controlled. These emissions usually consist of
hydrogen sulfide and various organic sulfide compounds. These odorous
compounds constitute a nuisance to the surrounding neighborhoods and
businesses.
Phoenix XT™ is an evolutionary product that combines Calgon
Carbon's patented Phoenix™ system with its unique Titan™
system. The combination of these two activated carbon systems creates
an integrated package that can effectively control virtually any
municipal wastewater odor problem. Phoenix XT™ can treat odorous
airflow rates between 3,000 — 30,000 cubic feet per
minute.
Compared to alternative technologies, such as multi-stage chemical
scrubbers and biofilters, Phoenix XT™ provides more effective
odor removal in a package that takes up less space. Phoenix XT™
is designed to remove 99.9% of all odorous compounds. Most
importantly, Phoenix XT's combined purchase and maintenance costs are
less than any of the equivalent competitive products.
Commenting on the Phoenix XT™, Charles Fluharty, director of
marketing of Calgon Carbon Corporation's Engineered Solution Group,
said, "Phoenix XT is an example of our ability to integrate our
technologies to provide solutions to difficult odor emission problems
faced by municipalities around the world."
