Solutions for High Temperature Scrubbing Processes

Monroe Environmental provides gas scrubbing systems for combustion processes including incineration, oxidation, flame laminating, glass coating, and other high temperature operations exhausting dryers, ovens, furnaces, gassifiers, reactors, and kilns.

Monroe Scrubbing System at Industrial Waste Facility

20,000 CFM — Incinerator Exhaust Scrubbing, Stainless and Mild Steel Construction

• Ceramic-lined steel ducting – Corrosion and temperature control
• Rapid water quench – 2,000°F to less than 200°F
• Adjustable Venturi Scrubber – Particulate removal
• Horizontal Clarifier tank – Solids settling
• Packed Tower Scrubber – HCl scrubbing
• Carbon/filter housing – Final filtration and discharge polishing

Scrubbing Systems for Chemical and Compound Reclamation

Contaminants formed in these processes are frequently highly corrosive, hazardous, and/or difficult to remove. Removal often requires contaminant incineration at temperatures exceeding 1,500°F. Through proper quenching and gas conditioning techniques, Monroe can provide reclamation of costly chemicals and compounds contained within the off-gasses.

Monroe Scrubbing System at Grease Production Plant 15,000 CFM — Mild Coated Steel Construction

• Dual-Throat Venturi Scrubber to remove particulate
• Drag conveyor to remove settled material
• Oil Skimmer (right) to recover condensed grease
• Packed Tower Scrubber to remove hydrocarbon vapors

Multiple Packed Bed Scrubbing Systems

For some applications, multiple Packed Bed Scrubbers in series provide the best contaminant removal solution. This type of scrubbing system is common when there is a high pollutant loading or when removal efficiencies greater than 99.9% are required. Having multiple scrubbing stages also allows the use of different scrubbing solutions within a single scrubbing system for removal of different contaminates within the same air/gas stream.
