    Odour Control with Activated Carbon

    I have designed 2 systems, 1 already operating for 10 years non-stop which simply uses a dilute hypochlorite solution as an oxidant to dispose of thiols, hydrogen sulphides and amines. It is a simple wet scrubbing system which not only ventilates the plant, but clears odours from the...

    Local Exhaust Ventilation

    I assume the ammonia leaves your bulk storage tank via the "breather" as displaced air. A very simple "bubble" chamber attached to the breather (together with a vacuum relief valve) containing dilute sulphuric acid will do the trick. Be careful of the depth of immersion of...

    I was wondering if anyone has had experience with scrubbing Phosphorus Pentoxide fumes from an air stream at elevated temperatures. I am designing a system where the incoming air is approximately 1100 deg C. By using an air blead as well as evaporative cooling (droplet size of water approx 50...

    pH for removal of NH3 from exhaust with dilute H2SO4 Scrubbing?

    Ammonia and amines are all highly soluble in an acid environment. The equilibrium is however driven by the concentration of the wash liquor and oprating temperature. At higher temperatures, the vapour pressure of the contaminant overcomes its solubility. Remember, at equilibrium the reaction...
