Q-Scrub Incinerator Packed Bed Scrubber
with Integral Quench Eliminates Common
Inorganic Flue Gases. Engineered for
Incinerators and Thermal Oxidizers

Tri-Mer Q-Scrub is engineered for high-temperature furnace and incinerator applications –
virtually any combustion process that produces corrosive by-products.

• Rotary kilns
• Calcinators
• Multiple hearth furnaces
• Refractory furnaces
• Fluidized bed furnaces
• Biomass grate furnaces
• Catalytic combustion furnaces
• Waste-fired boilers
• Liquid injection incinerators
• Direct flame gas incinerators
• Hazardous waste incinerators
• Sludge incinerators
• Fume oxidizers
• VOC oxidizers 

PERFORMANCE:

• Standard systems are 500-100,000 cfm.  Other capacities are available.

• Standard performance efficiency is 95-99.99%, depending on user requirements. 
  Systems can be engineered to guarantee any outlet rating.

• Most stack gas emissions requirements are based on a mass emissions standard
  of lbs./hr. in vs. lbs./hr. out for contaminant such as HCl, Cl2 , SO2 , HF etc.

Standard Q-Scrub packed bed scrubber is specified for evaporative water cooling of the gas
stream.  Materials of construction for the quench section include Hastelloy™ C276 and 316L to
304 stainless steel; high-temperature FRP is recommended for applications below 300°F. 
The scrubber section is manufactured in polypropylene, fiberglass or high alloy steel.

For applications involving the removal of submicron particulates, click on (CCS) option
which can incorporate the Q-Scrub for total control of gas and particulate, including
submicron particulate.

STANDARD FEATURES:

1. High efficiency packed bed incinerator scrubber, using patented Tri-Packs® media.

Tri-Packs’ spherical design provides maximum surface contact between the gas
and the scrubbing liquid by creating a continuous formation of droplets throughout
the bed.  Tri-Packs eliminate clogging because they have no flat surfaces or crevices
to harbor particulate.  They have no corners or valleys and they minimize wasteful
liquid flow down the wall surface.  Tri-Packs develop very low static pressure
per foot of depth.

2. Mist eliminator section – 99%+ efficient units available.

3. Integral recirculation system and corrosion-resistant pump.

4. Piping package for quench and scrubber sections.

5. Vertical or horizontal wet quench section or quench venturi section.

6. Instrumentation package, including pH control and flow sensors.  Q-Scrub packed bed scrubbers
are provided with process control packages for fully automated operation.

7. Motor control starter package.

Systems are custom-engineered to accommodate user gas volume and
contaminant input/output loading.

SYSTEM OPTIONS:

• PLC interface
• RTD temperature control
• ORP control
• Exhaust blower
• Capital and operations costs
• Q-Scrub requires the lowest capital investment of any wet combination
  quench/scrubber system.
• Operating costs are minimized through neutralization of corrosive
  flue gases, efficient use of chemicals,  and low pressure drop.

SYSTEM UPGRADES:

Q-Scrub is engineered for interface with Tri-Mer’s Tri-NOx ® Multi-Chem ® system
where NOx must also be destroyed.  Multi-Chem is the practical, efficient solution to
NOx emissions from all sources, at all loadings.  Systems are generally three to six stages.

Tri-Mer Corporation is a worldwide designer/manufacturer of advanced air emissions
systems to control NOx , SO2 , fumes and odors, particulates, and VOCs.  For 49 years,
we’ve provided industry with cost-effective solutions to complex problems.  We welcome
the opportunity to recommend an air management solution for your application.
