Regenerative thermal oxidation of airborne N, N-dimethylformamide and its associated nitrogen oxides formation characteristics.

In this study, a two-bed electrically heated regenerative thermal oxidizer (RTO) was used to test the thermal destruction and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) formation characteristics in burning airstreams that contain either N, N-dimethylformamide or dimethylformamide (DMF) mixed with methyl ethyl ketone (MEK). The RTO contained two 0.152 m x 0.
