Abstract: Method and apparatus for treating air containing hydrogen sulfide gas, volatile organic compounds, heavy metals and other mercaptans in order to reduce odor and corrosion related to wet wells, dry pits, grease traps and the like. The system comprises a first and second stage air treatment system. A vacuum pump in the primary (stage 2) treatment housing vacuums the contaminated air from the source and pumps the air through a set of diffusers into a treatment fluid wherein the air is then passed through a pair of porous plates and upward through a discharge pump and then into the atmosphere. Prior to treating the air in the primary housing, it is treated in a pretreatment dry air filter wherein the air is inlet into the pretreatment (stage 1) housing and then through a microfilter prior to being passed into the primary housing for further treatment.

Abstract: An aeration tank used in a method of treating effluent includes a pipe for transporting the effluent from the source to the tank bottom and a discharge duct having a siphon effect for tapping off an overflow from the tank as more effluent is added from the source. An array of generally horizontal pipes is located in the tank having a series of exit holes along their length and connected to an air plenum at one side wall for feeding air into the end of each of the pipes, the pipes being arranged in columns one above another such that the air escapes from the pipes of the array through the holes to inject air into the effluent in the tank at positions spaced transversely, longitudinally and vertically. The pipes have flat upper discharge surfaces. Above each pipe is provided a collector channel which collects bubbles as they get too large and channels them to one end to be replaced by fresh small bubbles from a next above pipe.

Abstract: Provided herein is an apparatus for scrubbing either acidic or alkaline impurities from gas streams, wherein the gas streams to be scrubbed exist at a pressure which is only slightly higher than ambient pressure. An apparatus according to a preferred form of the invention exists substantially in the shape of a rectangular or cubic solid, having an inlet pipe which is directed to an inner chamber having a wall portion which functions as a manifold, including a plurality of gas conduction tubes in fluid contact with the inner chamber, and into which tubes the gas to be scrubbed enters. The gas to be scrubbed passes through holes in the walls of the gas conduction tubes and contacts a liquid absorbent substance present in the interior confines of the apparatus, which liquid is capable of reacting with one or more impurities in the gas stream, thus eliminating the impurities from the gas stream. The gas stream so treated emerges from the apparatus through a gas outlet provision.

Abstract: The present invention is an exhaust gas purifier that can effectively remove soot from exhaust gas of a diesel automobile, for example, a truck and a bus. The present invention has a simple structure, and can effectively remove from exhaust gas the following exemplary pollutants, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides and hydrocarbons.

Abstract: A filter device for removing combustion gases and/or particulate matter from air comprises a cooling unit and filtering unit. The cooling unit has an inlet for receiving an air stream containing combustion gases and/or particulate matter, a cooling member for lowering the temperature of the air stream, a first outlet for discharge of a condensate, and a second outlet for discharge of the air stream containing uncondensed particulate matter. The filtering unit has an inlet for receiving the air stream containing uncondensed particulate matter from the second outlet of the cooling unit, the filtering unit having at least one filter barrier through which the air stream passes, the filter barrier being configured to catch at least a portion of the particulate matter in the air stream. The invention is also for a process for removing combustion gases and/or particulate matter from an air stream.

Abstract: An exhaust gas scrubber including a tank of scrubbing liquid into which a downconer pipe(s) feeds inlet gas and fresh scrubbing liquid from a plenum. The inlet gas flows through slotted vortex generators forming file-scale bubbles encapsulated within a scrubbing liquid. The bubbles mix and coalesce in a turbulent motion, and are then passed through another set of vortex generators which break up coalesced bubbles and form fresh fine sized bubbles, and impart an angular velocity to the mixture. Formation and coalescence of the bubbles produce gas phase to liquid phase mixing and scrubbing. Centrifugal forces created through the slotted vortex generator produce liquid circulation and recycle. The bubbly mixture then rises, bubbles coalesce and break, and the liquid scrubbing solution falls back, flowing into a relatively quiescent down flow zone around the perimeter of the scrubber outside of an overflow weir or weirs.

Abstract: A treatment device for exhaust of a vehicle has a main body, a filter net, and a covering lid. The main body includes an exhaust storage chamber and an outer inlet pipe in communication with the exhaust storage chamber for guiding the exhaust from the exhaust pipe of a car into the main body. Branch pipes with radial tubes in the main body communicate with the exhaust storage chamber, each having numerous small apertures. A netting stand is in the main body to support the filter net and liquid agent is filled in the main body with a level below the filter net. The covering lid encloses the upper opening of the main body. The device causes the exhaust to have a greater contact area with the liquid agent and with the filter net. Accordingly, the harmful substances in the exhaust are removed effectively, and the temperature of exhaust and the sound volume of generated noise are lowered substantially.

Abstract: A weld chamber has an air intake and an exhaust or evacuating ductwork for evacuating gases and other particles from the welding chamber. The evacuating ductwork is connected to a vacuum source to remove gases and by products from the weld chamber during welding. A throttle plate is provided in the evacuating ductwork adjacent the weld chamber to adjust or regulate the air velocity evacuating from the weld chamber. The evacuating duct then leads to a sealed water filtering tank. All of the exhausted/evacuated gases and by products are led beneath the water line and bubble through the water before emerging from the sealed water. The soot and iron particles are immediately cooled and trapped in the water tank. Moreover, particles become wet and are less likely to become airborne thus leading to a substantial portion of the particles being trapped in the sealed water tank. Thee remaining gases are then evacuated to the vacuum source and further filtered by a mechanical filtration device.
