Tray Tower Scrubber
DESCRIPTION
A Tray Tower Scrubber, also known as a tray scrubber or plate scrubber, is a type of wet scrubber used for the removal of contaminants or pollutants from gas streams. It operates based on the principle of contact between the gas stream and a liquid phase to capture or neutralize pollutants.
FEATURES
Tower Structure: The scrubber consists of a vertical tower or column, typically made of materials resistant to corrosion, such as stainless steel, fiberglass, or other composite materials.
Trays or Plates: The tower contains multiple horizontal trays or plates arranged at intervals inside the tower. These trays are perforated or have various configurations to create surfaces for liquid-to-gas contact.
Gas Inlet: The contaminated gas stream enters the scrubber at the bottom and moves upward through the tower.
Scrubbing Liquid: A suitable liquid (often water or a chemical solution) is introduced onto the trays from above using spray nozzles or distribution systems. As the gas rises through the tower, it comes into contact with the liquid on the trays.
Contact and Absorption: The gas and liquid phases come into contact on the trays, allowing the pollutants in the gas stream to transfer into the liquid phase through absorption or chemical reactions.
Clean Gas Outlet: The cleaned gas exits the tower at the top, having passed through the trays where the pollutants were removed.
Liquid Collection: The liquid containing the captured pollutants flows down the tower, collecting at the bottom or being removed separately for further treatment or disposal.
APPLICATION
Tray tower scrubbers are used in various industries such as chemical processing, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, metal processing, and power generation, where the removal of acidic gases, particulates, or other contaminants from gas streams is necessary to comply with environmental regulations or improve air quality.
Why Choose Us?
Their effectiveness depends on factors like the choice of scrubbing liquid, tray design, gas flow rates, and the specific pollutants being targeted. Proper maintenance and monitoring of these scrubbers are essential to ensure optimal performance and compliance with emission standards. Consulting with professionals in air pollution control systems can help in selecting and maintaining the appropriate tray tower scrubber for a particular application.
