A system for minimizing thermal reactor temperature overshoot and stabilization during a boat push. In one embodiment, the setpoint temperatures are reduced to a minimum value. As the temperature in the thermal reactor begins to increase, the setpoint temperatures are ramped back to the original setpoint temperature.
