In the early 2000s, Clear Edge brought the very first catalytic ceramic filters to market, Cerafil TopKat. These bifunctional filters were the first to remove particulates, NOx, SOx, VOCs, Dioxins, and other Noxious gases in a single process step at elevated temperatures. Cerafil TopKat received the ABB Environmental Award 2005 at the annual award ceremony of the Institute of Chemical Engineers in London. Through a process of continued product development, Clear Edge continues to widen the Cerafil product portfolio to meet the needs of ever increasing applications and markets.
