SCRUBBING APPARATUS Russian patent published in 1997 - IPC

FIELD: gas purification. SUBSTANCE: invention relates to scrubbing process in which suspended particles are removed using inertial force arising upon impact of gas stream against liquid bath. Apparatus contains casing 1 filled with liquid to the level of overflow lip 5, liquid-supply and -withdrawal connecting pipes, gas- supply pipe 9 provided with insertion and head, and connecting pipe for withdrawal of purified gas. Mobile head is made in the form of two parts: cylindrical (14) and conical (15) ones. Insertion is made in the form of cone oriented towards gas stream and connected with cylinder. Insertion is disposed in gas-supply pipe such as to provide cone base to lie on the same level with overflow lip edge. Structure of mobile head provides self-maintenance of gas velocity and optimal distance from level of liquid to lower base of the head. EFFECT: increased efficacy of operation under varying conditions. 3 dwg
