Crossflow Industrial Crossflow Scrubbers Tri-Mer brand Industrial Crossflow Scrubber

Applications/How it Works:

Crossflow industrial scrubbers maintain stack emissions to specific ppm levels for all input concentrations.

Key to the performance of this system is high liquid flow recirculation, which provides intense contact between the contaminant and scrubbing liquid.

Applications include a broad range of manufacturing and process industries; semiconductor, metal finishing, and chemical industries generating corrosive fumes and gases also benefit from Crossflow technology.

Tri-Mer industrial scrubbers have two stages. The first stage removes most contaminant from the air stream and may be continuously wetted to prevent plugging. Stage two is a mist eliminator.

In a wet scrubber, water or scrubbing liquid removes pollutants from the air. When the water is recirculated, addition of fresh water is necessary to purge contaminants and replace evaporation losses. Fresh water may be added to the recycle continuously or periodically.

Industrial scrubbers are often used to remove acid fumes. Strong alkali is added to the recycled scrubbing solution to neutralize the acids and maintain a neutral pH.

Features:

Specific outlet requirements based on percent removal can also be guaranteed.

Tri-Mer Corporation furnishes wet scrubbers with auxiliaries and options described herein. The system includes but is not limited to the following:

  • All scrubber internals necessary to provide adequate process capture and to achieve the designed performance.
  • Mist eliminator to achieve entrained liquid separation.
  • Flanged connections for external water fill, water makeup and drain piping as required.
  • Controls if optioned, to automatically feed make-up water, control liquid level, monitor pressure.
  • Fan if optioned.
  • Protective coating of required areas with resistant paint on external surfaces.
  • Self-contained recirculation system or remote recycle tank.
  • Wet Scrubbers are equipped with random dumped Tri-Pack packing. Packing depth is determined by Tri-Mer Corp.

Materials:

Tri-Mer Industrial scrubbers are fabricated from homogenous, virgin-grade, UV-resistant polypropylene homopolymer, PVC, mild steel or stainless steel. The maximum temperature rating for polypropylene units is 180°F; 140°F for PVC.

The Wet Scrubber shell is manufactured from Polypropylene, Polyvinylchloride, (PVC) stainless steel or mild steel. Tri-Mer will evaluate contaminants and select the most appropriate material.

The fan, if optioned, is manufactured from FRP, PVC/PP with coated steel impeller, stainless steel, or an equally suitable material.

The Wet Scrubber is equipped with a high efficiency (95% @ 15 micron and larger) mist eliminator of the chevron blade type or a coalescing type mesh pad (99% @ 10 micron and larger mist). Material for the mist eliminator is PVC or polypropylene; alternate materials are available.
