Hydro-Lance Wet Scrubber for Particulate Control

Hydro-Lance Wet Scrubber for Particulate Control

With Venturi scrubbers, the dirty gas entering a scrubber is forced at high velocity through a Venturi where it collides with scrubbing water. The tiny water droplets capture particles through impaction and diffusion. The dirty water is then removed in a cyclonic separator and discharged into a recycle tank. Some of the liquid is continuously purged to limit the solids concentration and allow recirculation back to the Venturi section.

However, Venturi scrubbers can experience pump failures, small orifice nozzle clogging and material failures. To avoid these issues, we offer the Hydro-Lance Wet Scrubber system, which combines proven Venturi collection methodology with our HEE-Duall SAVe (Sub-merged-Air-Venturi) technology.

In terms of the principles of operation for the Hydro-Lance Wet Scrubber, static pressure induced by an exhaust fan draws the sump water and dust-laden air stream into an inverted Venturi throat. Turbulent mixing of dust and small droplets form an agglomerate, which is returned to sump where water is reused, and particulate matter settles out or is dissolved. Entrained mists and dust are collected on a chevron blade mist eliminator. The collected dust then forms sludge at the conical bottom of the scrubber.

Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) Filter

Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) Filter

Activated carbon works via a process called adsorption, wherein a highly porous pattern in the granulated carbon media adsorbs and entraps contaminants from the water. The contaminant particle is diffused into a pore and become adsorbed. The higher the contaminant concentrations the greater the removal capacity of the activated carbon, however, it may require longer contact time with the media.

The same operation principle as the Multimedia Filter is applied to Activated Carbon Filter. Water flows from the top of the vessel passing through the activated carbon bed, treated water is collected from the bottom and backwash is initiated once the pressure drop increased or the efficiency of the filter declines.

CECO Environmental

APPLICATIONS

Another element is added to the filtration process using activated carbon, in granular form, as a filter media. GAC filtration is very effective in eliminating impurities and contaminants causing bad taste and foul odors, sediments, chlorine other organic compounds.

GAC Filters are commonly used for water purification, air filtering and other industrial gas processing:

  • Drinking water
  • Condensate water treatment
  • Applied after multimedia filter to protect RO membranes from chlorine
  • Industrial water treatment
  • Polishing filter for iron removal
  • VOCs & H2S gas removal

Gas & Liquid Coalescing Filters

Gas & Liquid Coalescing Filters

Coalescing filter elements offer the highest efficiency performance.  These are intended as a “polishing” stage to remove sub-micron particles & are usually combined with a vane or cyclonic separation device upstream to prolong filter element operating life.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

Liquid / Liquid coalescers separate two types of liquid (i.e., oil and water) while Gas / Liquid coalescers separate liquids from gases.

Fluid Catalytic Cracking Units (FCC Cyclones)

Fluid Catalytic Cracking Units (FCC Cyclones)

Fluid Catalytic Cracking Units (FCC Cyclones) are the principal technologies that enable the critical process within heavy oil refining of converting the heavy oils into more valuable gasoline and lighter products. More than half of the refinery’s heavy petroleum is processed through the FCC Cyclones, and the FCC Cyclones are also an important source of butene and pentene olefins used in refinery processes.

Our Emtrol-Buell brand has supplied more FCC Cyclones to refineries and petrochemical plants worldwide than any other supplier, so our experience in this area is unequaled. They are designed to enhance separation efficiency, accommodate increased catalyst loading, and are tailored to meet the application needs of refineries and petrochemical plants.

We custom-engineer the following products at the highest quality:

  • FCC Cyclones – Patented Beam Hanger Support System
  • FCC Cyclones – Reactor
  • FCC Cyclones – Regenerator
  • FCC Cyclones – Third Stage Separator Systems
  • FCC Cyclones – Fourth Stage & Catalyst Hopper Cyclones

The Concept of Fluid Catalytic Cracking

Heavy gas oils and vacuum gas oils are heated to more than 600 °F and then mixed with a catalyst before they enter the main FCC reactor. Chemical reactions “crack” the large molecules in the oil into smaller molecules, and carbon forms on the surface of the catalyst.

Inside the reactor, steam is injected to separate the oil from the catalyst, forcing the catalyst to move like a fluid. The “cracked” oil vapors flow out the top of the reactor. The used catalyst flows out the bottom of the reactor mixed with air and enters the regenerator vessel where surface carbon on the catalyst is burned off. The regenerated catalyst leaves the bottom of the regenerator to be mixed with the heavy oil feed.

Exiting the top of the regenerator is a hot flue gas stream that heats other boilers in the plant. While the catalyst is being regenerated, the hot oil vapors exit the top of the reactor and enter the main fractionator. This fractionator separates the “cracked” petroleum stream into lighter products such as gasoline.
