INDUSTRIAL PROCESSING - Wet Scrubbers
Many industrial processes involve air or gas flows which eventually are emitted to atmosphere, and which pass through some form of wet scrubber, cyclone or Venturi to remove contaminants. Wet scrubbers are normally fitted with a droplet separator or mist elimination device of some kind, appropriate for the size and nature of liquid expected to exit the wet scrubber. The whole range of filters are used somewhere or other, i.e. vane pack chevrons, mesh pad demisters, candle filter mist eliminators.
The selection of packing in such vessels is key, and dependent on pressure loss, mass transfer and other factors.
