  • Patent number: 11986765
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and to an apparatus for separating an exhaust gas, in particular an exhaust gas of a boiler, comprising introducing a gas stream of exhaust gas inside a washing chamber, dispensing a pressurized liquid shaped as drops inside the washing chamber, wherein the delivery pressure is adjusted according to the specific particulate to be separated so as to provide, during the separating step, a physical interaction between the delivered liquid drops and the particulate particles.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8662795
    Abstract: A head includes an outer cylindrical body with at least one upper inlet for fluids, at least one outlet side nozzle and at least one helical duct having a helical central line. The duct connects the upper inlet to the nozzle and imparts the fluid flowing through it a helical motion about the longitudinal axis of the outer body towards the nozzle. The helical duct is progressively tapered towards the nozzle and includes a terminal length of the duct which is radiused to the nozzle in a tapered manner, both when viewed in cross-sectional planes parallel to the longitudinal axis and tangent to the helical central line, as well as when viewed in cross-sectional planes perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.

  • Patent number: 6814011
    Abstract: Plant for the hot treatment of waste gases from municipal waste incinerators or the like, comprising a first line of taking up hot waste gases for treating in an exit section of a municipal waste incinerator, a one stage or multiple stage fluid bed contained within one or several reactors and invested by the waste gases to be treated, at least one hopper for charging the solid granular material into the reactor or reactors, a cyclone separator at the outlet of the reactor or of the last of the reactors; the treated waste gases exiting from the reactor or reactors being first introduced into said separator and subsequently conveyed, by said first uptake line, toward a final discharge chimney; said first uptake line providing, downstream of said cyclone separator, a second recirculating line moving the waste gases treated by the reactor or reactors, upstream of the reactor or of the first of the reactors, so that by this second line said treated waste gases mix with the waste gases to be treated originating fro
