To remove sub-micron particles from flue gas MDSJ 's Venturi scrubber uses a wet process utilizing high pressure drop. Our venturi scrubber features a wetted wall inlet that eliminates wet-dry build-up. Distributing the scrubbing liquid over a inlet perimeter of the venturi (Weir) eliminates the use of spray nozzles any potential for plugging. Downstream of the venturi an efficient entrainment separation is accomplished using either a mist eliminator or a cyclonic separatorThe 3 sections of a MDSJ Venturi scrubber are converging, throat, and diverging sections. Inlet gas stream enters the scrubber at the converging section. As the gas cycles down to the throat it increases speed causing liquid from the walls to tear into tiny droplets. These tiny liquid droplets entrain particles. Downstream particle removal happens in the diverging section as the gas is forced to slow down. A Venturi Scrubber can be engineered to collect both particulate and gas pollutants. That being said, the most efficient use of a Venturi Scrubber is to remove particles. Packed towers, FGD, and other scrubber technology are more efficient at removing gas pollutants.

Various construction materials such as Inconel, Hastelloy, 317L S.S., and FRP available: for corrosive applications is an excellent choice for any business that is looking to go green and reduce its environmental impact. These devices use a unique system design to scrub the air clean, without using any harmful chemicals or pollutants. This makes them safe for both your employees and the environment!
Not only are Ventri Rod Scrubbers environmentally friendly, but they're also incredibly effective at cleaning the air. In fact, they can remove up to 99% of airborne pollutants! This means that your facility will be cleaner and safer for everyone who works there.
Although the MDSJ Venturi Scrubber Type VVO is included as a standard item of equipment in our line of gas scrubbers, it resists standardization and requires more of the "custom-designed” approach. Decisions on liquid feed, venturi throat design, construction materials, etc. must be based on the specific operating conditions. In some cases, several types of materials or combinations thereof (alloys, fiberglass reinforced polyester, epoxy coated or rubber-lined steel) may be the most practical selection to withstand the conditions of corrosion and/or erosion. The use of
an integral recycle tank for scrubbing liquid feed to the venturi;
precooler at the inlet of the venturi to properly condition high temperature gases;
after-cooler section, must be carefully considered in order to achieve sound and practical equipment design and satisfactory performance.
The collection efficiency of the MDSJ Venturi Scrubber is a function of the pressure drop across the throat which, in turn, is a function of the quantity of submicron particulate matter suspended in the gas stream. scrubbers can be supplied to operate at pressure drops from 200 to 1400” W.G or higher.For applications requiring the maintenance of a predetermined pressure drop level for varying inlet volumes, the Scrubber can be provided with an adjustable throat mechanism. This feature also permits adjustment of pressure drop to upgrade collection efficiency to meet increased process or code requirements.
