Wet Scrubber

Wet scrubber is a form of pollution control technology that removes pollutants from 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, forcing it through a pool of liquid, or by some other contact method, so as to remove the pollutants.

The design of wet scrubbers or any air pollution control device depends on the industrial process conditions and the nature of the air pollutants involved.

Inlet gas characteristics and dust properties, if particles are present, are of primary importance. Scrubbers can be designed to collect particulate matter and/or gaseous pollutants.

Wet scrubbers remove dust particles by capturing them in liquid droplets. Wet scrubbers remove pollutant gases by dissolving or absorbing them into the liquid.
