The Importance of Protective Coatings for Wet Scrubber Systems

The use of stainless steel and GRP in scrubbers provides quality, they also require coatings for some areas, such as discharge nozzle to mitigate corrosion. The installation of scrubber systems on approximately 4,000 ships (predominantly open-loop scrubbers) is scheduled for next year to comply with the 2020 sulfur limits and to maintain air quality. Open-loop...

Air Pollution Control Promotes the Reduction of Crime Rate

It is widely recognized that air pollution is a contributing factor to slow deaths. According to the World Health Organization, poor air quality caused by air pollution (both indoor and outdoor types) is responsible for the deaths of about 7 million people every year. 9 out of 10 individuals globally inhale contaminated air. Air pollution affects...

Scrubbing System Technology for Marine Application

Scrubbing systems (or exhaust gas cleaning systems) are considered to be the best air treatment devices that can remove particulate matters and dangerous components, for example, sulfur (SOx) and nitrogen (NOx) oxides from the exhaust gases resulting from combustion processes in ship engines to carry out air pollution control. The main scrubbing application includes the...

Control of Air Pollution to Eliminate Risks to Human Health

The term “air pollution” refers to tiny particles and gases present in the air that cause significant damage to the human body when inhaled. Gases such as nitrogen dioxide, ozone, sulfur dioxide, and carbon monoxide particulate matter or PM, along with polluted air (from both human and natural sources), necessitate air treatment measures. Air pollution poses...

Scrubbing Systems for Combustion Processes

A variety of unwanted byproducts are generated due to fuel combustion processes. Flue gases include carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, sulfur oxides, nitrogen oxides, acids, and aerosolized metal oxides that cause poor air quality, and subsequently, air pollution. The majority of electric carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, sulfur oxides, nitrogen oxides, acids, and aerosolized metal oxides use...
