- All ERG designs are bespoke and matched to the detailed requirements of the application specification
- ERG uses industry-standard random packing to optimise operating efficiency with system pressure drop and equipment size
- All packages carry a performance guarantee and are designed to provide robust operation at the lowest capital and operating costs
Our extensive design and operating experience enables us to optimise the system performance.
- Flowrate ranges from 100 to 100,000 m3/hr per tower, multiple towers in parallel can be used for higher flowrates
- Odour loadings up to 1,000,000 ouE/m3 are common
- Soluble contaminants typically 50-200ppm average, and up to 1,000ppm peak
- Typical removal effciency 99.5%, up to 99.95% as required
- Vessel diameters from 200 to 3,800mm, heights typically up to 10m, or higher if the process requires it
- Complete systems supplied including recirculation pump, pipework, fan, ductwork, access platform, instrumentation and control system – and may be integrated further with a carbon filter
- Commonly used packing types include Snowflake/AstraPAC and 1″, 1.5″ and 2″ Pall rings
- Recirculated liquor flowrate selected to minimise pump flow and energy consumption at optimal scrubbing performance
- Liquor distribution across packing using sprays or trough distributors depending on application
- Droplet elimination using chevron, impaction blade or woven mesh design to suit application – clean in place sprays available to assist with on-line maintenance
- Scrubber sump tank integrated into the packed column vessel
- Chemical dosing, water make-up and blowdown control to match specific performance requirements
- Instrumentation selection to give robust operation, high reliability and tight performance control
- Vessel designed as standard to BS EN 13121 or BS 4994
- Materials selection to suit contaminants and reaction chemistry: common materials include uPVC, PP, Derakane® GRP, Crystic® GRP
