Solutions

Complete solutions, not isolated components.

Every burner, control system, emission solution and heat exchanger is selected, configured and integrated as part of a complete engineering solution — designed precisely around your specific process requirements.

Industrial combustion and burner system
01 — Combustion and Burner Systems

Custom combustion, engineered for your environment.

ICE designs and builds industrial combustion systems where reliability, efficiency, and compliance are critical. We engineer custom solutions tailored to your operational environment — with capacities from 1 MW to 40 MW, ATEX and SIL approved options for hazardous zones, and Low NOx technology compliant with current European emission standards.

Indirect Air Heaters

Engineered for applications where heated air comes into contact with the product or where contamination risk is unacceptable. Integrated heat exchangers guarantee complete separation between combustion gases and process air, meeting the most stringent hygiene standards — the standard for food processing. Fuels include natural gas, biogas and syngas. See indirect air heaters.

Direct Air Heaters

Highly efficient gas-fired hot air systems delivering direct thermal energy for robust industrial applications where atmosphere control allows direct contact.

Process Heating Solutions

Custom-engineered heating configurations designed entirely around your material, capacity, production rate and thermal profile.

Swirl Flame Burner

A low-NOx combustion solution combining high flame exit velocity with a large flame surface area to produce a stable, comparatively cool flame. The aerodynamic swirling effect induces internal flue gas recirculation, significantly reducing NOx formation while maintaining maximum thermal efficiency.

Selecting or replacing a burner is above all an efficiency decision: modern turndown ratios up to 1:40 and electronic air-fuel ratio control typically cut fuel consumption by up to 10%. Read our guide on cutting industrial furnace fuel consumption.

Infrared heating technology
02 — Heating Technologies

Precise, efficient heat — exactly where it's needed.

The right heating technology depends on your product, atmosphere and temperature profile: radiant heat for fast surface processes, indirect heating where the atmosphere must stay clean, and hot air where volume heating is required.

Infrared Burners

Compact, high-performance surface combustion systems utilizing an FeCrAl metal fibre matrix. Heating and cooling response within approximately one second for precise process control, deep infrared penetration, and high power density (100–400 kW/m²).

Gas-Fired Radiant Tubes

Efficient indirect heating systems for controlled atmosphere furnaces up to 1200°C. Available in U-type, W-type, and P-type configurations to eliminate any contact between flue gases and the product, preventing oxidation and maximizing yield.

Typical applications: infrared for drying textiles, carpet, paper and coatings; radiant tubes for annealing, hardening and tempering under protective atmospheres; indirect air heaters for contamination-free drying in food processing.

Thermal oxidiser emission reduction system
03 — Emission Reduction

Compliance without compromising throughput.

Increasingly stringent emission standards leave no room for underperforming abatement systems. Non-compliance risks production shutdowns, legal action, and reputational damage. Which technology fits which pollutant — and when to combine them — is explained in our guide thermal oxidizer vs SCR.

Thermal Oxidisers

Bespoke thermal oxidation systems that combine high destruction efficiency with optimized energy recovery. Contaminated process gases (VOCs, carbon monoxide, organic solvents, hydrocarbons) are heated to temperatures between 750°C and 1200°C to be safely oxidized into stable by-products.

Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR)

Advanced technology for converting nitrogen oxides (NOx) into harmless nitrogen gas and water vapour. By injecting a reducing agent (ammonia or urea) upstream of a precisely selected catalyst bed, we achieve exceptional NOx removal efficiencies at lower temperatures.

Hybrid Solutions and Electrical Combinations

Future-ready configurations combining traditional gas-fired technology with high-efficiency electrical alternatives. Developed for multi-pass processes or sites where gas supply constraints, fluctuating energy prices, or strict carbon reduction targets demand flexible, hybrid thermal control.

Every emission project starts with an exhaust gas audit and ends with the official emission measurements your permit requires — engineering, commissioning and compliance from one contracting party.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does ICE supply individual components or complete systems?

Both. Depending on your needs, ICE supplies individual components, engineered equipment, or complete turnkey integrated systems — always configured as part of one engineering solution.

Can ICE integrate its solutions into an existing installation?

Yes. ICE supports modernization, optimization and upgrading of existing legacy systems of any brand, from a single burner replacement to a complete control system retrofit.

What capacity range do ICE combustion solutions cover?

Industrial burner systems from 1 MW to 40 MW, with ATEX and SIL approved options for hazardous environments and Low NOx technology compliant with European emission standards.

Which solution do I need for my emission problem?

That depends on the pollutant: thermal oxidation for VOCs, CO and odour; SCR for NOx; combined lines where permits limit both. An exhaust gas audit of your actual emissions is the starting point.

Can ICE solutions support decarbonisation and hydrogen plans?

Yes. Hybrid gas-electric configurations, fuel-flexible burners (natural gas, biogas, syngas) and hydrogen-ready technologies are part of the solutions portfolio.

Which solution fits your process?

Talk to our engineers about your process, bottleneck or compliance target — from a single component to a complete turnkey system.
