  2. Scrubber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrubber

    Scrubber systems (e.g. chemical scrubbers, gas scrubbers) are a diverse group of air pollution control devices that can be used to remove some particulates and/or gases from industrial exhaust streams. An early application of a carbon dioxide scrubber was in the submarine the Ictíneo I, in 1859; a role for which they continue to be used today ...

  3. Wet scrubber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet_scrubber

    The term wet scrubber describes a variety of devices that remove pollutants from a furnace flue gas or from other gas streams. In a wet scrubber, the polluted gas stream is brought into contact with the scrubbing liquid, by spraying it with the liquid, by forcing it through a pool of liquid, or by some other contact method, so as to remove the pollutants.

  4. Venturi scrubber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venturi_scrubber

    Venturi scrubbers can be used for removing gaseous pollutants; however, they are not used when removal of gaseous pollutants is the only concern. The high inlet gas velocities in a venturi scrubber result in a very short contact time between the liquid and gas phases.

  5. Flue-gas desulfurization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flue-gas_desulfurization

    Approximately 85% of the flue gas desulfurization units installed in the US are wet scrubbers, 12% are spray dry systems, and 3% are dry injection systems. The highest SO 2 removal efficiencies (greater than 90%) are achieved by wet scrubbers and the lowest (less than 80%) by dry scrubbers. However, the newer designs for dry scrubbers are ...

  6. Carbon dioxide scrubber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dioxide_scrubber

    A carbon dioxide scrubber is a piece of equipment that absorbs carbon dioxide (CO 2). It is used to treat exhaust gases from industrial plants or from exhaled air in life support systems such as rebreathers or in spacecraft , submersible craft or airtight chambers .

  7. Amine gas treating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amine_gas_treating

    Amine gas plant at a natural gas field. Amine gas treating, also known as amine scrubbing, gas sweetening and acid gas removal, refers to a group of processes that use aqueous solutions of various alkylamines (commonly referred to simply as amines) to remove hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) and carbon dioxide (CO 2) from gases.

    I don't like the idea of dipping the same brush in the container." Fortunately, The Pink Stuff also comes as a spray , so, problem solved. Deep-set stains might require some extra elbow grease

  9. Mechanically aided scrubber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanically_aided_scrubber

    Mechanically aided scrubbers are a form of pollution control technology. This type of technology is a part of the group of air pollution controls collectively referred to as wet scrubbers . In addition to using liquid sprays or the exhaust stream, scrubbing systems can use motors to supply energy.
