  • Device for the separation of liquid and/or solid pollutants entrained by gaseous streams
    Patent number: 6752861
    Abstract: A device for the separation of liquid and/or solid pollutants entrained by gaseous streams, comprising a separating element (11), contained inside a protective casing (12) which comprises a gas inlet and outlet (13, 14), wherein the separating element (11) includes a coil (17). The coil (17) is situated between an outlet disk (18), having an outlet hole (20), and an unloading disk (19), wherein the unloading disk (19) has a series of discharge channels (21), relating to the external loops of the coil (17), and discharge channels (21′), relating to the internal loops of the coil (17), so that the geometrical parameters of the coil (17) and the distribution of the discharge channels (21, 21′) allow liquid and/or solid micro-particles to be eliminated from a stream of gas.
