The Afterburner is a standard product in our company's portfolio typically supplied together with a degreaser (a device for thermal removal of oil from the surface of aluminum heat exchangers) included in a CAB line. This design has started to be used when annealing aluminum coils in Vortex and mass flow furnaces. Large quantities of oil are often used during the rolling and corrugation process. The oil evaporates during the heat treatment process, emitting hazardous organic compounds. In order to protect the health and the environment, SECO/WARWICK delivers a solution that ensures that emission...
