Ionizing
Wet Scrubber™ (IWS™)
The IWS™ is a highly specialized
scrubber that combines particle charging with packed bed wet
scrubbing. The end result is
extremely high fine particle or mist collection combined
with high efficiency gas absorption. Whilst the particle
charging aspect is similar to wet electrostatic precipitation
in some respects, key differences in design result in much
broader scale application and performance, as well as the
addition of high efficiency gas absorption. The key application
for this design has been hazardous waste incineration, where
high efficiency acid gas absorption is
required along with high efficiency particle collection to
reduce acid gases, heavy metals, dioxins, furans and the
like to acceptable levels.
Kimre mesh pads offer
high efficiency mist elimination. The pads employ a unique
woven structure and a variety
of filament
sizes and weave densities. The woven material produced
is in relatively thin layers (2.5 mm to 50 mm thick)
with a
pad being
assembled from a number of layers which may be the same
or may vary in weave and composition. As such a pad
can be designed
to achieve a given mist removal performance, liquid handling
capability etc. This method of construction results in
predictable, reliable performance and also allows
for easy cleaning by
pulling the individual layers apart and washing them.
Kimre pads can
also be used as mass transfer media in packed towers. Monsanto
Mist Eliminators (MME’s)
Also known as candle filters
and Brink mist eliminators, MME’s
were developed by Monsanto to solve acid mist problems
in sulphuric acid plants. They have since been developed
to solve a range
of mist problems, especially ultrafine acid and organic
mists from sources such as chlorine plants, asphalt plants,
sulphuric
and nitric acid plants, vinyl curing operations and
other applications producing condensed organic mists.
Tellerette® Tower
Packing
EGL manufacture and market Tellerette® tower packing,
a highly efficient, low pressure drop tower packing that
has
been an industry standard for many years. The packing comes
in a range of sizes (nos. 1, 2 and 3) and materials (polypropylene,
polyethylene, PVC, CPVC, PVDF, Tefzel, Xydar)
EGL offer fiberglass fans for use in highly
corrosive chemical environments. The range covers air flows
up to 90,000 Am3/hr
and static pressures up to 6 kPa. Both the impellers and
the housings are solid fiberglass offering maximum corrosion
resistance
and structural integrity. The range covers the normal range
of types, blade styles, accessories and arrangements as
are available for metal fans.
Engineering Studies
Many of our clients need assistance to evaluate
their air emission applications, to identify solutions and
to evaluate and troubleshoot
existing ventilation and air pollution control systems.
EGL have un-matched specialist expertise and knowledge to assist
in
these areas
and have undertaken a variety of engineering studies for
these clients.
Pilot Plants
EGL has a number of pilot plants available
for on-site pilot plant work. These consist of a number of
packed tower scrubbers,
up to 750 mm diameter. Complete systems are able to be
assembled including extraction fans, ducting, stub stacks,
recycle pumps
and piping systems, chemical dosing systems and control
panels. An OdorgardTM reactor and catalyst can be
incorporated for trialling on odour control problems.
Service Work EGL have engineers and technicians available
for on-site servicing facilities, and maintenance contracts
with a number of
clients.
