Crossflow industrial scrubbers maintain stack emissions at specific legal emissions levels for all input concentrations. Unlike vertical scrubbers, cross-flow industrial scrubbers are not limited in height and can be installed indoors or in space-constrained locations.
Applications include a wide range of manufacturing and process industries; semiconductor, metal finishing, and chemical industries that generate corrosive fumes and gases, as well as odorous gases.
Horizontal industrial scrubbers have two stages. The first stage removes most of the contaminants from the airflow and allows for continuous wetting to prevent clogging. The second stage is the mist eliminator.
In a wet scrubber, water or scrubbing liquid removes contaminants from the air. When water is recirculated, fresh water needs to be added to remove contaminants and make up for evaporative losses. Fresh water can be added to the cycle continuously or periodically.
