Educter Scrubber Removes Sticky Resins and Vapors from
Heated Kettles
An Eductor Venturi Wet Scrubber has been successfully applied at this chemical manufacturer to remove resins and vapours from its manufacturing process.
Recirculated water is introduced into the Eductor vessel at 100 PSIG which by travelling through a venturi throat, induces an 800 ACFM process gas flow.
Gas/liquid contact occurs in the throat of the venturi where the contaminant gas or particulate matter is scrubbed. Leaving the throat, the gas is allowed
to expand in the venturi's diverging section prior to entering the
separator tank. Once in the separator tank, the gas stream makes several
sharp changes in direction, causing entrained water droplets to impinge
on the tank wall or the liquid surface. The scrubbed gas then exits the
separator through a mist eliminator pad and is exhausted to the
atmosphere.
Each Eductor Scrubber is custom-engineered to meet specific performance
requirements. Design flexibility makes the Eductor very versatile. It is
easily staged with other collection devices such as impingement plate
scrubbers or packed towers.
Where extremely high efficiencies are required, Eductor Scrubbers can be
arranged in series. Eductor scrubbers and separation tanks are available to
handle gas flows up to 10000 CFM. The high liquid flow rate makes the Sly
Eductor particularly appropriate for the collection of sticky and/or gummy
particulate as well as gases which decompose upon contact with water.
