Abstract: The present invention relates to a process and a device for the combustion of sulphur and/or sulphur-containing compounds, via which a sufficient production of SO2-containing gases having a high SO2 concentration is made possible. The combustion preferably proceeds using a combustion gas which has an oxygen fraction at least as high as air, but preferably a higher fraction of oxygen. The process and the device should be suitable, in particular, for providing sulphur dioxide as a source for further production of sulphuric acid or highly concentrated SO3-containing gases. In addition, the device and the process should be suitable for oxidizing hydrogen-sulphide-containing gases, such as occur, for example, in the refinery industry, in high concentrations to SO2.

Abstract: Regenerator and process for regenerative thermal oxidation of offgases comprising halooganosilocon compounds in which offgases are heated in the regenerator, fed to an oxidation zone present in the regenerator to oxidize the haloorganosilicon compounds to SiO2 and hydrogen halides which form a flue gas which is then cooled in the generator to a temperature below its acid dew point and is discharged.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel apparatus in the form of a regenerator and to a process executed therein for treatment of offgases comprising impurities in the form of haloorganosilicon compounds.
