Operation
mode of a
packing scrubber:
The
packing
scrubber
is a solution proposed
to solubilise
the pollutants into a scrubbing liquid.
The
packing, usually in PPH, increase the contact surface between the
liquid and
the pollutant. The scrubbing liquid will stream on the absorbent parts
of the packing
in order to make a better liquid/gas interface.
Once
the pollutants are solubilised, they will be degraded and neutralized
inside le
liquid by some chemical products (reagents). The scrubbing liquid will
be
emptied periodically, send to the water treatment plant.
The
scrubber
can be realized
in PPH or HDPE. The diameter of the
scrubber,
the type
and height of packing, will be design regarding the temperature of the
gas, the
type of pollutants and the airflow to treat. The
scrubber
ends by a
droplet
separator stopping the drops pulled by the gas.
This
process uses chemicals. The operating conditions are really flexible:
high temperatures,
discontinue process, high concentrations of pollutants.
