Epcon specializes in integrated oven and oxidizer systems for industrial applications. Their systems combine heat recovery methods that recycle heat from oxidation processes to power heating ovens, minimizing operating fuel usage and costs. Epcon has several patented integrated systems proven across multiple global installations. Their website provides information on case studies of comprehensive integrated systems for applications such as paint coating, metal processing, and fiberglass web processing that include ovens, thermal oxidizers, and heat recovery methods to improve energy efficiency and meet pollution regulations.
1. Integrated Systems
Leading Industrial Manufacturer of Integrated Systems and Solutions.
The integrated “Oven/Oxidizer Combination” design is one of Epcon’s engineering specialties, with
several patented systems proven across multiple installations around the globe. During the
oxidation process inclusion of heat recovery that recycles the heat to operate the process heating
ovens and furnaces, equates to cost savings by minimizing operating fuel usage.

2. Comprehensive Paint Coating System with 3-Can RTO, Multistage Heat Recovery, and
Curing and Bake Ovens
The use of a Regenerative Thermal Oxidizers with Secondary & Tertiary Heat Recovery in the industrial oven
applications, especially baking or curing ovens for painted or coated products, coating oven effluents, coating
rooms, spray booths, and the like to improve energy usage and safety for plant operations while maintaining air
pollution control requirements.

4. Integrated System with Prime and Finish Ovens, Thermal Oxidizer and Heat Recovery
for a Coil Coating Application
Meeting current federal and state regulations can often compromise fuel costs and operational efficiency,
leaving companies spending more money and time than necessary to fix a specific problem. One recent Epcon
customer in the metal processing industry was looking to replace a coating line Ovens & standalone Thermal
Oxidizer system. Check the link below for details

5. Continuous Drying and Curing System for Painting of Aluminum Tubes with VOC
Controls
And producer of Aluminum Tubes in China needed a continuous drying and curing system in order to dry
Flux Paint on one stand of aluminum tube in a continuous process, quench to cool the aluminum tubing,
dryer to dry the water from the tubing and thermal oxidizer for VOC destruction. Check this link

6. Coil Coating Oven and Thermal Oxidizer for Laminated Aluminum Sheet
Curing Line
A leading developer of laminated aluminum sheet required continuous cure oven system for their new
laminated aluminum sheet line, that would not only cure the applied coatings, but also heat treat the
aluminum in the process. Producing these materials at affordable prices requires large scale coil laminating
production lines. Insuring a consistent and uniform cure of the polymer mastic is critical to product
performance.

7. 55 Gallon Drum Line Equipped with Washlines, Ovens, Recuperative Thermal
Oxidizer and Heat Recovery Methods
A global German company, wanted to have a presence in the United States to manufacture 55 Gallon
Drums. The new facility in the US needed to not only comply with EPA’s regulatory standards, but also
provide increased processing speeds and fuel efficiency. Visit Us

8. Metal Coil Coating Line with Oven and Oxidizer System, Heat Recovery and Advanced
Air Handling Controls
A pioneer in the pre-painted metal coil market in Brazil, need to replace their 20+ year old coil coating line.
To successfully transition from their dated energy hungry oven and air pollution control units to a state-of-
the-art integrated high performance Oven and Oxidizer solution, the team identified a number of key criteria
which would guide the system design. Topping that list was; realization of best in class quality, increased line
capacity within the available process envelope and reduced energy consumption.

9. Comprehensive Coil Coating and Air Pollution Control System for an Automotive
Parts Manufacturer
This large automotive industry manufacturer already had a liquid coating process line mounted in the facility.
As the production output requirements grew and environmental legislations became stricter, the automotive
production team faced several problems with the existing equipment and process design. Check this link for

10. Complex Curing Oven and Integrated RTO for the Resin Application on Continuous
Fiberglass Web
Epcon was awarded a contract, on a repeat basis, for a company in the web-processing industry, to supply
their continuous web processing line. In this application, Fiberglass web is uniformly impregnated with
resins and fed into the first zone of a curing Oven, and this process is repeated several times. The resins,
when heated, emit high quantities of VOCs. Visit Us
