The thermal removal of old coatings as a pretreatment for applying a new coating is not new. What is new is the way it is done. Since the middle of 2007, we are using a very modern pyrolitic oven (LxWxH = 6 m x 2.5 m x 2.5 m). Impurities and coatings are dissolved in an oxygen-starved environment at a temperature of 450 °C. Due to the lack of oxygen in the oven, the temperature can be accurately regulated during the process. The gasses generated in the pyrolitic oven are subsequently burned off completely at a temperature of 850 °C and are purified in a gas purification unit. This comprehensive purification allows the safe and environmentally responsible cleaning of wet and powder coatings, and fluoropolymers such as Halar®.
