Abstract: A cyclonic chiller-separator, including a vertically oriented treatment tower defining an interior space and having an exhaust inlet disposed in an upper portion, and a chimney with an exhaust outlet; an exhaust stream conduit in fluid communication with said interior volume of said treatment tower through said exhaust inlet, wherein said exhaust inlet is configured to induce cyclonic fluid motion in an exhaust stream entering said interior volume; a coolant water source; and a plurality of nozzles disposed about interior walls of said treatment tower and in fluid communication with said coolant water source for spraying cooling water into said interior volume above and into an exhaust stream introduced into said interior volume so as to cool, condense, and precipitate volatile organic compounds and organic acids, and to entrain and remove particulates from the exhaust stream.
