Catalytic Converter & Element Washing

Encino Environmental Services specializes in in-house Catalyst Washing and Element Washing for small to medium-sized gas compression engines, with catalyst elements ranging from 6 inches to 14.5 inches in diameter. Our Catalytic Converter and Catalyst Maintenance services are designed to restore and extend catalyst life by thoroughly removing contaminants. These services help keep your equipment in compliance with EPA regulations and reduce your overall operating costs.

Key Features of Our Catalyst Washing and Maintenance Service

  • Quick Turnaround: Most converters and elements are processed within 24-48 hours, minimizing downtime and getting your equipment back in action quickly.
  • Comprehensive Contaminant Removal: Our multi-step washing process effectively clears out ash, dirt, and carbon char, restoring the catalyst’s optimal function.
  • Catalyst Maintenance for Compliance and Cost Savings: Regular Catalyst Washing is essential for maintaining EPA compliance and lowering long-term operational expenses.
  • Non-Conversion Credit: In the event that a catalyst or element fails to convert in the field, Encino will credit the cost of washing toward a new replacement catalyst or element, providing a reliable and cost-effective Catalyst Regeneration option.
