Abstract:

In turbulent gas scrubbers of the Venturi tube type, the removal of such dust from air can be quite effective. However, a device of this type demands large expenditures of electric power. Research on the absorption of ammonia and sulfur trioxide in Venturi tubes has indicated that rather good results can be attained by staged absorption with relatively small expenditures of electric power. Based on the similarity of the laws of the kinetics of absorption and wet dust trapping, it was decided to conduct an investigation of staged dust trapping in Venturi tubes.
