Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An apparatus for destruction of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) includes an assembly 10 for collecting VOCs from at least one source of VOCs and an assembly 12 for thermodynamically destroying collected VOCs. The apparatus also includes an assembly for transporting collected VOCs from the assembly 10 for collecting VOCs to the assembly 12 for thermodynamically destroying collected VOCs. Additionally, an assembly 14 for monitoring the assembly for thermodynamically destroying collected VOCs is provided. A device controls the feed of collected VOCs to the assembly 12 for thermodynamically destroying collected VOCs and the operation of the assembly 12 for thermodynamically destroying collected VOCs as a function of one another such that the proportion of the collected VOCs to the primary fuel in the fuel combination is below a predetermined limit which varies with respect to the combustion rate of the assembly 12 for thermodynamically destroying collected VOCs.
