  • Publication number: 20230338882
    Abstract: An installation in a gas flow channel includes a first layer of rod-shaped elements positioned at a distance from one another along a plane transverse to a direction of gas flow and a second layer of rod-shaped elements offset relative to the first layer. The second layer of rod-shaped elements is positioned at a distance from one another along the plane transverse to the direction of gas flow. The of rod-shaped elements extend across the gas flow channel. The second layer is structured to move relative to the first layer to define at least one of: (i) one or more additional operating positions; and (ii) an out-of-phase position.

  • Publication number: 20210236974
    Abstract: A mist eliminator is described for separating liquid and/or solid particles out of a gas stream. The mist eliminator has various functional elements that are arranged in the gas stream direction in the gas stream path in three or more levels (5, 6, 7) of which the first level (5) comprises flow deflection elements (3) and the other levels (6, 7) each comprise liquid/solid particle collection and discharge elements (8, 9). The mist eliminator is characterized in that it has a particularly good separating efficiency with a low pressure loss and a small installation depth.

  • Patent number: 8986412
    Abstract: A tube for the conduction or discharge of wet flue gases subjected to a scrubbing has a helically formed guide element on an inner surface of the tube and having a plurality of turns. A film trap is provided on the inner surface of the tube between adjacent turns of the guide element.

  • Publication number: 20120117929
    Abstract: A tube for the conduction or the discharge of wet gases, especially for the conduction or discharge of flue gases subjected to a scrubbing (wet cleaning) is described. The tube has a helically formed guide element at its inner wall. The entrainment or the injection of droplets of the tube is reduced by this design. Furthermore, a guide element for the installation in such a tube is described. The tube is preferably a wet chimney.

  • Patent number: 8016121
    Abstract: Disclosed is a droplet separator system which is disposed in or on a flow duct and is used for separating liquid and/or solid particles from the medium flowing in the flow duct. The system comprises a frame with a base plate, a cover plate, and a trough that is located at the bottom end of the frame and is used for collecting and discharging liquids/solids, a cap area and a lateral area. A plurality of profiled droplet separators (3) is retained by the frame. The frame is provided with at least one device for deflecting and/or increasing the resistance and/or reducing the rate of the flow, the device being arranged in and/or adjacent to the trough area, cap area and/or lateral area of the frame. This allows entrainments or leakage flows to be largely eliminated.

  • Patent number: 7931721
    Abstract: The invention relates to a droplet separating system for gas washers and similar, comprising at least one droplet separating layer and a rectifier layer which is arranged upstream in the direction of the flow of gas. The rectifier elements of the rectifier layer are arranged in the form of a V or an upturned V having opposite inclinations to the droplet separating profiles of the droplet separating layer. As a result, the rectifier layer is contaminated in a slow manner due to the increased performance of the droplet separating system.
