Fundamentals of Function

A lightweight, portable, and simple-to-install device, the Vent Gas Scrubber System is intended to reduce pollution from low volume sources in an affordable and efficient manner. A Fig. 2.2 scrubber and a liquid gas separator make up the Vent Gas Scrubber System. Both are readily accessible from stock. When sending the entrained gas down the drain with the scrubbing liquid is not desired, use the combination Fig. 2.1 Vent Gas Scrubber and Gas Separator. Using this liquid gas separator does not result in a pressure decrease, so the scrubber's capacity is unaffected.

A liquid gas separator is a tool used to separate the liquid that is released from a vent gas scrubber (Fig. 2.2) from the entrained gas. It works on the basis of gravity, where the gas must reverse directions 180 degrees in order to escape out a top outlet, and the liquid is directed to the bottom to run out a drain aperture. The unit is sized to permit low gas velocity in order to accomplish gravity separation.

Advantages

tiny gas fluxes from lab hoods, storage tanks, and tiny industrial pilot plant equipment may be scrubbed compactly and effectively. Figure 2.1: Vent Water usage for Gas Scrubber Systems is affordable. They function similarly to fans in creating a draft, but unlike fans, they are also effective in eliminating harmful gases and particulates. Continuous operation with little maintenance is feasible, in contrast to bag house-type filters.

When it is not desired to release the entrained gas together with the liquid into a drain, a liquid gas separator is utilized. Alternatively, the Liquid Gas Separator is not required if the Vent Gas Scrubber is used with a large tank, for example, for recirculating the scrubbing liquid.

Applications

Typical applications include pollution from laboratory fume hoods, schools and industrial shops, pilot or bench scale plant equipment and smaller commercial and industrial uses.
