Metso said it is reintroducing the OtoVent off-gas treatment technology for the quenching of various types of off-gases in non-ferrous and ferrous metallurgical processes. The technology is known to be used at the most modern copper smelters.
“We are excited to reintroduce OtoVent. The Venturi-shape design ensures complete cooling of gas, effectively protecting downstream equipment. In addition, it ensures excellent pre-dedusting. Thanks to the compact equipment design, maintenance needs are minimized,” said Leif Skilling, director, Gas Cleaning at Metso.
OtoVent has high quenching and pre-dedusting capability, and the design ensures minimum maintenance effort. Additionally, the compact size makes it suitable for both greenfield and brownfield installations and it is an exceptional replacement for existing quenchers.
The benefits of OtoVent include:
- High-efficiency quenching for reliable protection of downstream equipment.
- Suitable for highly corrosive gases and temperatures up to 1200°C.
- Effective pre-dedusting and impurity removal.
- Easy to maintain with low lifecycle costs.
- Customizable for different processes and plant arrangements.
- Compact footprint.
