Active scrubber with flow rate up to 35 m³/hour

An active gas scrubber is suitable for higher vapor flow rates, regular filling operations, and applications with higher loads. The scrubbing liquid is continuously distributed over the packing, while the contaminated air moves through the column in countercurrent flow. This creates intensive contact between the air and the liquid and allows the scrubbing process to be precisely controlled. Depending on the application, the system operates with water or a specialized scrubbing liquid and can be integrated with the filling process so that it is active only when needed.

The active gas scrubber is equipped with the following connections:

1. drain Ø90 with separate flange (at the bottom of the scrubber)
2. Ø90 flange with separate flange (air inlet)
3. diaphragm valves (2 pieces), each followed by a Ø32 flowmeter and a nozzle for regulating the water flow rate through the scrubber
4. Ø750 base plate to secure the scrubber
5. drip separator

Depending on the medium and the filling rate, the scrubber’s water consumption can vary from approximately 200 to 500 liters per hour. The amount of vapor may vary depending on the medium.

Optionally, we can automate the water supply. This reduces water consumption and prevents the water valve from remaining open unnecessarily. In this context, linking the system to the storage tank’s fill valve may be beneficial. An active gas scrubber with circulation also reduces water consumption.

For tall scrubbers, it is necessary to assess the wind load. Depending on the installation location, a tension cable may be required during assembly, for example.
