Indeed, an RTO provides the highest fuel efficiency of any type of waste-gas thermal oxidizer and, thus, may allow you to cut costs for incineration. But it’s not best for all services, so you must understand its limitations. When an RTO is the right choice, you must then consider its particular design and operational issues.
However, direct fired thermal oxidizers (DFTO) are the best choice when:

Another challenge many companies face is understanding all the requirements for the mandatory Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program. The initial focus is on stationary combustion sources at all industrial facilities, and includes additional emission sources for specific industry sectors. A facility must determine if it is subject to any of the specific industry sector subparts based on type of processes on-site.
There’s little doubt that the EPA intends to eventually mandate that companies reduce their emissions regardless of whether they are seeking permits. It would be wise for a company to examine its current emission levels and evaluate possible ways of reducing them now so it can incorporate suitable investments into future capital budgets.
To help you sort through all of this, the editors of Chemical Processing have put together a Special Report: Effectively Deal With Waste Gas. Here you will learn:
