HCl & Chlorine Absorber
Flue Gas with 9% HCl and 0.1% Chlorine at 482F consist of two tower scrubber system. First tower was design to cool the gas down to below 200F and remove some of HCl and Chlorine. Second tower was design to absorb HCl and Chlorine with water. In first tower, simulation results shows that 2 Theoretical trays (stages) are required to achieve the desired gas cooling, packing used is Ceramic WavePak with packing height of 5 ft (Safety Factor is 30%) and diameter of 9.5 ft. In second tower, simulation results shows that 2 Theoretical trays (stages) are required to achieve 90% HCl removal, packing used is 3.5" Tri-Packs in PPG with packing height of 7 ft (Safety Factor is 30%) and diameter of 9.5 ft.
