A quite new unique equipment for the thermal treatment of gas wastes (incineration of volatile organic compounds contained in polluted air) has been developed. This is in fact a process for the thermal treatment of this type of wastes placed into one compact equipment consisting of a combustion chamber (incinerator) combined with heat exchanger (polluted air preheater). This equipment can bee used in various branches of industry (for the treat-ment of polluted air from paint shops, chemical cleaning systems, degreasing processes, printing machines, gas wastes from various chemical processes, for the thermal treatment of off-gases originating in refineries, in production of plastics, pharmaceutical industry, food industry, laboratories etc.). Principle steps in the research and development are briefly described as follows: idea and basic conception, design geometry, using simulation for setting basic process parameters, developing a computer program for thermal and hydraulic calculation of this equipment, design of a research facility in an industrial scale, experimental research and measurements, a procedure for verification mathematical models including CFD (Computational fluid Dynamics simulation), recommendation for industrial application.
