  • Patent number: 5201919
    Abstract: A gas scrubbing device having inlet and outlet ports that allows a gas stream to enter the scrubber from the bottom and exit through the top. The gas direction is reversed several times, fed through a venturi to accelerate the gas flow, and passed over two sumps containing scrubbing liquid. The combination of the high speed gas flow, gas flow reversal, and scrubbing liquid removes most particulates from the gas. The gas flows upward through a mist of scrubbing liquid created by a spray nozzle, and as the gas flows beyond the mist it flows through a series of deflection vanes which spin the gas to remove liquid droplets. The gas then passes through a series of serpentine vanes which cause the gas to change direction flow removing additional liquid droplets from the gas, through a reducing element, and out through the outlet port.
