Wet scrubbers operate by using water to capture and remove pollutants from gas streams through a process called absorption. Contaminated air is passed through a scrubber tower where water is sprayed or misted to absorb the pollutants. The water then separates the contaminants, which are collected in the system for disposal or further treatment. This process effectively removes a wide range of gasses, vapors, and particulates, making it a reliable solution for industrial air quality control.
Key parameters and typical removal efficiencies include:
- Particulate Matter: Removal efficiency of up to 99% for fine particulates, dust, and aerosols.
- Acid Gases: Removes up to 95% of acid gases like SO₂ (sulfur dioxide), HCl (hydrochloric acid), and NOₓ (nitrogen oxides) through absorption and neutralization in the scrubber water.
- Ammonia (NH₃): Removes ammonia gases from industrial processes, typically with efficiencies greater than 90%.
- Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs): Removes VOCs, including solvents, hydrocarbons, and other organic emissions, with high removal efficiency.
- pH Control: Ensures optimal pH conditions in the scrubber water to maintain efficient pollutant absorption and minimize corrosion risks.
Benefits of Industrial Wet Scrubbers
- Effective Pollutant Removal: Highly efficient at removing harmful gases, particulates, and VOCs from industrial exhaust streams, improving air quality.
- Regulatory Compliance: Helps industries comply with stringent environmental regulations, reducing the risk of fines for emissions violations.
- Energy Efficient: Designed for low energy consumption while providing effective scrubbing, making it an economically viable solution for continuous operation.
- Low Maintenance: Robust design with minimal maintenance needs, reducing downtime and operational costs.
- Water Recycling: Many systems allow for the recycling of scrubber water, minimizing water usage and lowering operational costs.
