Wet scrubber systems are devices that provide air pollution control by removing the dust particulate pollutants and polluted gases from industrial exhaust systems. Today air pollution is seen as of of the main problems on the planet that leads to the emergence of severe threats and health conditions.
Wet air scrubbers are considered to be the best option for air treatment for various industries. This type of scrubber allows removing both particulate pollutants and gas emissions together in a single air pollution control system. The operating principle is very simple: wet scrubber catches particulates with a special solution or simple water.
Next, these particles are collected in the liquid and removed. Finally, the scrubbing liquid with pollutants is discharged or reused only for air treatment. It should be noted that most wet air scrubbers are equipped with an outlet gas element called an entrainment separator that enables them to avoid any droplet flow.
Moreover, any design of wet scrubbers can be implemented to ensure consistent interaction between liquids and gases, enabling the scrubber to effectively capture particulate pollutants from the air. Every specific application requires various scrubbing systems of different sizes and types. For instance, small industries prefer such scrubber systems that generally include “a scrubbing vessel, ductwork, and a fan system, a pumping system, a mist eliminator, the scrubbing liquid, and also an exhaust stack.”
Wet air scrubbers offer numerous benefits for industrial applications. To be more precise, wet scrubbers can maintain high temperatures or moisture. These types of scrubbers can neutralize the corrosive gases, and scrubbing technology is considered to be equally effective in air treatment and removal of particulate pollutants or gases.
Scrubber systems allow cooling hot gases leading to a compact size of the air pollution control system. Although dry particulates are highly flammable, wet air scrubbers reduce significantly the probability of explosion hazards. The liquid from scrubbers reduces the temperature and the volume of the unsaturated exhaust stream smaller.
There are different types of wet scrubbers: chemical or gas scrubbers, particulate, Venturi, Dust, Chlorine, Ammonia, and Sulfuric acid scrubber systems. General application of scrubbing includes many industries, for example, petroleum refineries, chemical processes, acid manufacturing plants, and steel making industries. Wet air scrubbers remove particulate pollutants and treat both pollutants and impure gases.
