GAB-NeumannGraphite Quenches

SHARE

Quenches are used in various industries to instantaneously cool down hot gases coming from kilns, ovens, incinerators, and other flue gas sources. Graphite quenches are adapted to the rapid cooling of ultra-corrosive hot gases (up to 1300°C inlet temperature) and prevent the re-synthesis of dioxins and furans. Quenches are gas liquid contactors used to achieve mass and heat transfer between a continuous gas phase that might contain pollutants or/and dispersed solid particles and a dispersed liquid phase. GAB Neumann offer spray, pipe, or Venturi graphite quenches.
