Wet Air Scrubbers for Acid Gas

Acid scrubber technology is one of the methods for air pollution control with the aim to dust control and reduce air pollution caused by various industries. Acid scrubbers adopt wet scrubbers as one of its forms to counter and remove polluted gas emissions into the environment. Acid scrubbers are majorly applied in the manure processing,...

Wet air scrubbers: common reasons for using and problems

What is the lowest cost method of removing the particulate to an allowable emission level? Wet scrubbing usually provides high removal efficiencies as the dust particles are captured in the water droplets. When this happens, the particle size increases, thereby making it easier to remove the dust. A smaller dust particle would be surrounded by...

An overview of types of wet air scrubbers

The main task of any type of scrubber is removing unwanted gases and particulate matter from industrial smokestacks before they enter the atmosphere. The two main types of scrubbers: wet scrubbers and dry scrubbers. These scrubbers can reduce up to 90 percent of emissions that contribute to smog and acid rain. Wet scrubbers are effective...

Wet Air Scrubber Selection for Particulate Removal

Combustible dust explosions must be eliminated as quickly and effectively as possible in any processing facility. All combustible as solids materials may entail a deflagration or explosion hazard in manufacturing and reduction processes of separation into fine particulates. Dust and other similar substances that contain organic materials and different types of metals are explosive. In...

Venturi scrubber as an advanced dust purification technique

Wet air scrubbers remain the main force for the capture and collection of particulates. Particulate scrubbers, often called Venturi scrubbers, are successful in removing particulates from exhaust gases with high efficiency. This type of dust control technology is a part of the group of air pollution controls collectively referred to as “wet scrubbers”. Venturi scrubbers...
