Cyclonic spray scrubber, the Glossary

Cyclonic spray scrubbers are an air pollution control technology.^[1]

Absorption (chemistry)

Absorption is a physical or chemical phenomenon or a process in which atoms, molecules or ions enter the liquid or solid bulk phase of a material.

See Cyclonic spray scrubber and Absorption (chemistry)

Air pollution is the contamination of air due to the presence of substances called pollutants in the atmosphere that are harmful to the health of humans and other living beings, or cause damage to the climate or to materials.

See Cyclonic spray scrubber and Air pollution

Corrosion

Corrosion is a natural process that converts a refined metal into a more chemically stable oxide.

See Cyclonic spray scrubber and Corrosion

Cyclonic separation

Cyclonic separation is a method of removing particulates from an air, gas or liquid stream, without the use of filters, through vortex separation. Cyclonic spray scrubber and Cyclonic separation are air pollution control systems and pollution control technologies.

See Cyclonic spray scrubber and Cyclonic separation

Entrainment (engineering)

In engineering, entrainment is the entrapment of one substance by another substance.

See Cyclonic spray scrubber and Entrainment (engineering)

Particulates

Particulates or atmospheric particulate matter (see below for other names) are microscopic particles of solid or liquid matter suspended in the air.

See Cyclonic spray scrubber and Particulates

Pollutant

A pollutant or novel entity is a substance or energy introduced into the environment that has undesired effects, or adversely affects the usefulness of a resource.

See Cyclonic spray scrubber and Pollutant

Pollution

Pollution is the introduction of contaminants into the natural environment that cause adverse change.

See Cyclonic spray scrubber and Pollution

Pressure drop

Pressure drop (often abbreviated as "dP" or "ΔP") is defined as the difference in total pressure between two points of a fluid carrying network.

See Cyclonic spray scrubber and Pressure drop

Spray tower

A spray tower (or spray column or spray chamber) is a gas-liquid contactor used to achieve mass and heat transfer between a continuous gas phase (that can contain dispersed solid particles) and a dispersed liquid phase. Cyclonic spray scrubber and spray tower are air pollution control systems, pollution control technologies and wet scrubbers.

See Cyclonic spray scrubber and Spray tower

Venturi scrubber

A venturi scrubber is designed to effectively use the energy from a high-velocity inlet gas stream to atomize the liquid being used to scrub the gas stream. Cyclonic spray scrubber and venturi scrubber are air pollution control systems, pollution control technologies and wet scrubbers.

See Cyclonic spray scrubber and Venturi scrubber

Wet scrubber

The term wet scrubber describes a variety of devices that remove pollutants from a furnace flue gas or from other gas streams. Cyclonic spray scrubber and wet scrubber are air pollution control systems and pollution control technologies.
