Multiple Venturi Air Scrubber

Customized to Meet Your Needs

The airflow itself activates turbulent washing action without a pump. The air and scrubbing liquid, alternately flow in and out of small venturi slots in the multiple venturi section.

A high kinetic energy is imparted to the particles contained in the dirt-laden air, and the airflow itself causes a high degree of atomization of the wash liquid.

The tangential whirling flow pattern of both air and liquid ascends the multiple venturi sections with dynamic impingement creating high collection efficiency.

The wash liquid is driven to the outside of the top moisture eliminator section of the scrubber by centrifugal force, then drains back to the bottom reservoir.

Entrained dirt particles settle to the bottom of the reservoir. Clean wash liquid is drawn from the surface of the reservoir and recirculated in a closed system, thus reducing water consumption.

Minimum Maintenance, No Moving Parts

The Monroe Multiple Venturi Wet Air Scrubber contains no moving parts. The entry area and the venturi throats are self-cleaning.

The maintenance requirements for this unit are low. It is not necessary to enter the structure for cleaning, as is required with many other air scrubbers. There is no packing required, water distributors to clean, nozzles to maintain, or mechanical devices to cause downtime.

Once placed on-line, the Monroe Multiple Venturi Wet Air Scrubber operates continuously with sustained efficiency.

Multiple Venturi Efficiency

Normally, the high efficiency of a single stage Monroe Multiple Venturi Wet Air Scrubber will handle most industrial processes. For difficult applications two or three stage systems are available.

Remove Chemical Fumes

High removal efficiency can be achieved on chemical fumes because of excellent liquid/gas contact and long residence time.

The self induced water recirculating system provides a convenient means of adding neutralizing chemicals.

Special Features

An optional drag conveyor can be included for continuous removal of settled sludge for heavy dirt loads.

Wide range of construction materials. Mild steel, special coatings, stainless steel, fiberglass and numerous other materials are available to meet intended applications.

No moving parts in the collection area eliminates costly shut-down due to wear and abrasion, assuring optimum performance under continuous operating conditions.

Complete electrical controls are available to meet customer specific requirements.

Many Configurations Available

Monroe Multiple Venturi Wet Air Scrubber complete systems are available including a liquid clarifier, chemical feed equipment, instrumentation and electrical controls.
