Spray Tower Scrubbers: Design, Operation, Pollution Control, and Practical Engineering Applicat

Image
  Spray tower scrubbers are among the simplest and most versatile wet pollution-control technologies used in industrial air-treatment systems. They bring contaminated gas into contact with droplets of water, solvent, or chemically reactive scrubbing liquid, allowing particulate matter and selected gaseous pollutants to be captured or absorbed. The new book Spray Tower Scrubbers: Design, Operation, Pollution Control, and Practical Engineering Applications by Charles Nehme presents the technology from a practical engineering perspective, covering equipment configuration, spray-nozzle selection, gas-liquid contact, pollutant removal, mist elimination, liquid recirculation, corrosion considerations, operation, maintenance, troubleshooting, and industrial applications. Why Spray Tower Scrubbers Matter A spray tower generally consists of an open chamber containing spray nozzles through which the scrubbing liquid is distributed. In a common counter-current arrangement, contaminated gas...
