Inert gas generators and hazardous waste incinerators quickly evolved as backbone of the delivery program. CO2 generation plants are also added. |
||
| 1980's |
Caloric adapts the syngas technologies for small scale plants. CO and hydrogen generating plants are added to the product portfolio. Hazardous waste incinerators become more complex as emmission limits become more strict. |
