Use of Spray Technology in Pollution Control Topic of New Bulletin
Spray nozzles and systems for wet flue gas desulfurization (FGD), acid gas treatment, NOx reduction, mist eliminator (ME) wash down, chemical injection and gas conditioning are the focus of a new bulletin published by Spraying Systems Co. The bulletin provides an overview of many spray solutions available to OEMs, engineering firms, electric utilities and other plants with pollution control requirements.
Silicon carbide nozzles, widely used in FGD scrubbers, are among the products featured. Details are included about a full range of hollow cone and full cone scrubber nozzles designed with large flow passages to minimize clogging. In addition, the bulletin provides information on the company's manufacturing capabilities that result in quick delivery and extremely competitive pricing.
Also described are nozzles used for ME equipment cleaning. A unique vane design produces a stable full cone pattern that provides superior cleaning. The bulletin provides spray distribution data and photography that illustrates the uniformity of the spray pattern.
Many options for gas conditioning are also presented. High-efficiency air atomizing nozzles that provide 100% evaporation, conventional air atomizing nozzles, fully automated spray systems and spray injectors are just a few of the products covered.
The importance of performance testing and documentation is also addressed. Information is provided on tests commonly conducted in the company's spray laboratories to assist with nozzle selection and placement, verify spray performance in varied operating environments and comply with special customer-designated QC programs.
