Products - MV Venturi Scrubber
Particulate Collection
The MV Scrubber creates fine water droplets by
the “shearing” action between the
gas stream as it is accelerated through the venturi
throat, and free flowing water injected into the
scrubber converging section. These fine water
droplets scrub fine particulate from the air stream
and are themselves collected by the downstream
mist eliminator.
As the particles to be collected become smaller,
the pressure drop required to collect them becomes
greater. Thus Venturi scrubbers are considered
to be high energy particulate collection devices.
Rugged Design-Low Maintenance
The
MV Scrubber uses a wetted inlet, which reduces
abrasion and avoids wet/dry interface buildup.
The scrubber uses a flooded elbow design, which
eliminates abrasion due to the high gas velocity
in the scrubber. The throat section is easily
accessed for routine maintenance, and throat section
components can be easily replaced. The scrubber
can be fabricated with throat section made from
alloy steel, and an inlet and outlet section from
FRP.
MV Scrubbers are available in Mild Steel, Stainless
Steel, Corrosion Resistant Alloys or FRP construction.
Flexibility
The scrubber throat is manually adjustable to
provide for fine tuning the scrubber pressure
drop in the field. Optionally, an automatic throat
actuator can be supplied in conjunction with a
differential pressure controller to modulate throat
area and maintain a constant pressure drop.
A variety of mist eliminator/separator options
are available. Typically MV Scrubbers are supplied
with a centrifugal separator. Optional chevron
or mesh pad mist eliminators are available depending
on the application.
