Spray Tower Scrubber

A spray tower scrubber is a simple and efficient wet scrubbing device designed to remove particulate matter and gaseous pollutants from industrial gas streams. It works by introducing a particulate-laden gas stream into a chamber where it interacts with liquid droplets produced by spray nozzles. These droplets help in capturing pollutants, which are then removed through a de-mister at the top of the tower, leaving the cleaned gas stream to exit. Spray towers are often used in various industries for pollution control, offering high efficiency and low maintenance while handling both dust and gas removal.

Spray tower scrubbers are versatile, with applications across industries such as chemicals, metal processing, waste incineration, glass manufacturing, and fertilizer production. Their construction is customizable, with materials like PP, FRP, SS304, and SS316 to ensure durability, and they offer the added advantage of being able to handle fluctuating gas flows with ease.

Working Principle

The working principle of a spray tower scrubber involves the introduction of a particulate-laden gas stream into a chamber where it comes into contact with liquid droplets generated by spray nozzles. These nozzles atomize the scrubbing liquid, forming droplets that interact with the gas, capturing pollutants either through absorption or chemical reactions. As the gas flows upward or horizontally through the scrubber, the liquid droplets efficiently capture and remove particulate matter and soluble gases from the stream. After the scrubbing process, the cleaned gas exits the tower, passing through a de-mister to remove any remaining droplets. The scrubbing liquid and captured pollutants drain from the bottom of the tower as a slurry. This simple yet effective process offers high removal efficiency for various pollutants in industrial applications.

Features and Design

Wide Airflow Handling Capacity

Spray tower scrubbers are capable of handling airflow rates ranging from 100 to 30,000 CFM, making them versatile for different industrial applications. Whether it’s a small-scale operation or a large industrial plant, spray towers can adapt to varying gas flow requirements. This flexibility ensures they can effectively handle a wide range of operational scales. The ability to manage such a broad range of airflow is vital for industries with fluctuating emissions and gas volumes. Spray towers provide a reliable solution for air pollution control in diverse settings.

Efficient Pollutant Removal

Spray tower scrubbers are highly effective at removing both particulate matter and gaseous pollutants, especially when the pollutants are soluble or when chemical reagents are added to the liquid. The system achieves removal efficiencies of up to 95%, ensuring cleaner exhaust gases. The use of atomized liquid droplets maximizes the contact surface area with the gas, improving absorption and collection of contaminants.

Durable and Easy Maintenance

Spray towers are constructed from materials like PP, FRP, SS304, and SS316, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion, even in harsh industrial environments. The scrubbers are designed for easy maintenance, with spray nozzles that are accessible from the top of the unit, simplifying upkeep. The system’s simplicity and low risk of clogging ensure reliable performance over time. Additionally, the entrainment separators prevent liquid carryover, reducing the risk of contamination.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is a spray tower scrubber?

A spray tower scrubber is a type of wet scrubber used to remove particulate matter and gaseous pollutants from industrial exhaust gases by spraying liquid droplets into the gas stream.

Spray tower scrubbers are effective at removing a variety of pollutants, including particulate matter (PM), sulfur compounds (e.g., SO2), nitrogen compounds (e.g., NOx), ammonia (NH3), and chlorine (Cl2).

Spray tower scrubbers are used in industries such as chemical, pharmaceutical, metal, fertilizer, waste incineration, glass manufacturing, and foundries to control pollution from harmful gases and dust.

The scrubber works by spraying a liquid, often water or a chemical solution, into the gas stream, where it captures pollutants. The liquid droplets form a mist that traps particulates and dissolves gases before being separated and drained.

What is the efficiency of a spray tower scrubber?

  • Spray tower scrubbers can achieve up to 95% removal efficiency, especially for pollutants that are highly soluble in water or when a chemical reagent is added to the liquid.

Yes, spray tower scrubbers are known for their simple design and ease of maintenance. The spray nozzles are accessible from the top, and the scrubber has no risk of clogging in the wash section.

Yes, spray tower scrubbers are designed to be insensitive to fluctuating gas flows, making them suitable for operations where gas volumes vary.
