HCI Scrubber Module

The Anguil Acid Gas Scrubber neutralizes inorganic acids that exist in a process exhaust stream or are created during the oxidation of air pollutants. The module can effectively scrub a variety of acids including Hydrogen Chloride (HCl), Hydrogen Bromide (HBr), Hydrogen Fluoride (HF) and Sulfur Dioxide (SO2).

How the Scrubber Module Works

The acid containing stream is directed to the scrubber module where a recirculation pump injects large volumes of water into a quench section, inducing vapor flow through the scrubber. Water then quenches the hot vapor and absorbs a portion of the acid. The gases exit the eductor and enter a countercurrent absorption column. Recirculation solution is fed to the top of the absorption column through a nozzle. The remaining acid vapors are absorbed into the solution while the gases pass through a mist eliminator before exiting the column. Sodium hydroxide, or another caustic, is added to control the pH in the sump to the neutral range.

Features:

High temperature systems available for processes up to 1800oF (982 oC)
pH control system automatically monitors the solution to a neutral solution, optimizing scrubbing efficiency
Conductivity controller regulates water discharge from the scrubber and ensures there is no salt buildup
Automatic liquid level controls monitor the liquid in the sump
Automatic fresh water make-up prevents water depletion
High temperature safety shutdown
Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) based controls with digital data recorder and remote telemetry. Truly integrated control system with the oxidizer.
Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) allows for high volumetric turn-down during idle or low process conditions
Completely shop assembled, pre-wired and tested prior to shipment
