Cyclone separators Scrubber

A fluid-bed incinerator uses hot sand as a heat reservoir for dewatering the sludge and combusting the organics. The turbulence created By the incoming air and the sand suspension requires the effluent gases to be treated in a wet scrubber prior to final discharge. The ash is removed from the scrubber water by a cyclone separator. The scrubber water is normally returned to the treatment process and diluted with the total plant effluent. The ash is normally buried.

In modem boilers, both FT steam spaces and WT steam drums incorporate various devices to promote the effective separation of steam from water and the production of dry steam. These devices include horizontal separators and baffle plates in the steam/water space, and chevron driers, cyclone separators, and secondary steam scrubbers in the steam space. Older or simpler boiler designs with steam release velocities of below 3 ft/s (0.9 m/s) may rely solely on the natural separation of steam from water. 

Equipment Selection Criteria and Guidelines A number of factors should be considered to determine when to select which type ofvapor/gas/solid-liquid separator (blowdown drum or cyclone separator) to handle a multiphase stream from a relief device, and which final control or destruction equipment (emergency flare, emergency scrubber, or quench pool/catch tank) should be selected. These factors include the plot plan space available, the operating limitations of each type, and the physicochemical properties of the stream. 

Figure 1.69 shows a venturi scrubber in which water is injected at the throat and the separation is then carried out in a cyclone separator. 

Carbon monoxide is first stripped off particulate matter in a cyclone separator or in a scrubber. Scrubbing also removes tar or heavy hydrocarbon fractions. Acidic gases, if present, are removed by absorption in monoethanol amine or in potassium carbonate. This pretreated gas is sent to the next section for further purification. Commercial processes for final purification are based on the absorption of carbon monoxide by salt solution, low-temperature condensation, or fractionation, or by pressure-swing adsorption using a solid material. 

After leaving the diying chamber, aU gases (and vapors) from drying pass through product recovery equipment before being released to the atmosphere. Cyclonic separators, followed by dry fabric filters or wet scrubbers, are used to separate the particles from the gases. 

The entire pilot-scale installation consists of a coal combustor, cyclone separator, two heat exchangers, scrubber, regenerator, and exhaust fan. The scrubber and regenerator are equipped with heat-transfer coils, and all equipment in contact with the scrubber liquid is made of stainless steel. Gas-sampling ports are installed upstream and down-... 

The gas producer was a suction-type, downdraft reactor with 12 air holes around the mid-section of the cylindrical body, and a single gas outlet at the bottom. Connected to the gas outlet was a cyclone separator (3) to remove entrained dust and charcoal fines out of the gas before it went to the engine. The gas scrubber (4) and filter (8) were later additions when fuels with high tar and volatile matter contents were used. 

Process design and operation, which are the central and important areas in chemical engineering, have attracted many applications of MOO since the year 2000. In all, there are 35 applications of MOO for process design and operation (Table 2.1). These cover fluidized bed dryer, cyclone separator, a pilot scale venturi scrubber, hydrogen cyanide production, heat exchanger network, grinding, froth floatation circuits, simulated moving bed (SMB) and related separation systems, thermal... 

Vapors of two different monomers (A and B) together with a hot inert gas are fed to a mixer (such as a jet mixer, a simple short tube, or a combination of both) and then to the reactor inlet. Additional inert gas can be introduced as needed. The reactor effluent stream consisting of some polymer, possible oligomers, and by-product acid, is conducted through a quench chamber where the stream is cooled by a flow of relatively cold inert gas. The cooled stream is then led through a separator such as combination of a cyclone separator and filters to remove solid material. The filtered stream is then passed through a water scrubber to remove hydrogen halide and vented to the atmosphere or recycled.
