WET SCRUBBER “> ACO CO.,LTD.(1) PRINCIPLE OPERATION casower “ELS i | When gas containing dust passes through the Throat Section (2) between the Gas Guide Plate (1) and the water surface, water is included and a whirling swirl occurs in the Scrubbing Section (3). Much water, brought up by the gas, collides with the back of Gas Guide Plate, drops into the Throat Section and is made turned into fine particles by the gas again. Therefore, at the Scrubbing Section, gas is enclosed by fine particle water. As a result, extremely effective gas-liquid mixing and stabilized and highly-efficient dust collection is occurs in the Wet Scrubber. ‘After passing through the Scrubbing Section, the drops of water, which are brought by the cleaned gas, collide with and are caught by the Drain Board (4). Therefore water splashes are hardly observed at the Gas Outlet. Features * HIGH DUST COLLECTING EFFICIENCY Practical and efficient dust collection. + SIMPLE CONSTRUCTION Scattering and atomization occur as dust passes through the vater, therefore no pump is needed. The open structure permits easy maintenance. + VERSATILITY * EXCELLENT ECONOMY Low pressure loss (150mm Aq) and low running cost. 4) o Maintenance Door r FE can tote |< (1) [ qi Warer supe ra 2) (1) Gas Guide Plate (2) Throat Section (3) Scrubbing Section (4) Drain BoardCOLLECTION EFFICIENCY Dust collection efficiency differs according to a dust’s particular affinity for vater. Graph 1 illu: trates the collection efficiency of ore dust and refined metal dust. The maximum amount of particles in dust laden gas is (approx. 20g/Nut), but this depends upon the specific gravity of the dust particles contained within the gas itself. When treating high temperature gas, (150°C+) a spray nozzle which per- nits cooling must be attached to the gas inlet. If this is done steam is given off and dust collec - tion efficiency increases.
