Encertec - Environmental Ceramic Technologies

Dry Limestone Adsorber Completed Projects

Encertec's management team took the lead with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in obtaining approval to use dry limestone adsorbers in the ceramic industry. A dry limestone adsorber is the most common and economical solution to reduce HF in exhaust gases.

Starting in 1993 Encertec designed and installed these systems in the ceramic industry under a licensing agreement with R. Ohlmann GmbH Company. This German based company has supplied more than 400 exhaust gas cleaning systems worldwide. Each Encertec supplied DLA system passed EPA standards.
