Abstract
A process and device for removing and oxidizing organic substances from an extracted air stream. The air stream is flowed through a filter which adsorbs the organic material, where the airstream is bypassed around a catalyst until the filter is saturated. At saturation a heater supplies heat to the filter to desorb the organic material. The catalyst is heated by another heater at the desorption period and receives the organic material and extracted air stream to oxidize the organic substances.
