Acid scrubber technology is one of the methods for air pollution control with the aim of dust control and reducing air pollution caused by various industries. Acid scrubbers utilize wet scrubbers as a method to address and eliminate contaminated gas emissions released into the environment. Acid scrubbers are majorly applied in manure processing, natural degeneration, treatment of waste, manure-pharmaceutical, foundry, chemical, and sterilization industries.
The design of air scrubbers employs various gas-liquid interaction techniques, chosen based on what is best suited for a specific application under certain conditions. These methods include packed beds, spray towers, or water jets.
Typical acid gases consist of sulfur dioxide (SO2), hydrogen chloride (HCl), and hydrogen fluoride (HF). Less common acid gases include hydrogen bromide (HBr), hydrogen cyanide (HCN), and a various organic acid such as acetic or propionic acids. These gases are emitted from, for example, boilers, catalytic oxidizers for halogenated solvents, storage tank vents, and various chemical processes. All of these compounds harm the environment. All acids are corrosive: sulfur dioxide is a precursor to acid rain, hydrogen cyanide, and hydrogen fluoride are highly toxic. Any uncontrolled emissions can damage vehicles, buildings, and structures.
A typical acid scrubber operates at a low pH, causing base components to be trapped, resulting in the formation of salt. Based on the density and/or conductivity of a part of the carrier liquid sluiced. The sluiced liquid can contain salts up to 15% and after purification is drained or evaporated for re-using. A commonly utilized acid is sulfuric acid (H2SO4) due to financial considerations. In certain applications, such as the capture of NH3, nitric acid (HNO3) is also used.
The undeniable benefits of these acid scrubbers include their relatively small size and extremely high waste removal capacity. Moreover, these scrubbers can aid in developing modular, multi-stage systems.
A new type of wet air scrubber, Multi-vortex wet air scrubber cleans air from gases, dust, vapors and other admixtures using water or other cleaning liquid. Multi-vortex wet air scrubber produces the cleaning mist differently from other scrubber systems, which results in running costs that are much lower than for a common wet air scrubber. Multi-vortex wet air scrubber is the new type of wet air scrubber that saves water.
