4 All of the off-gases from the drying process are conveyed to the combustion chamber of the hot oil heater where any volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and fugitive wood dust are consumed, not released. This means that even very large ASTEC pellet plants may be operated without Regenerative Thermal Oxidizers (RTOs). ASTEC uses rotary hot oil tube dryers that prevent material damage and assures even drying. This method keeps the drying chips in an almost oxygen-free environment.
