Spray Tower Scrubber
MACH Engineering can design and help you implement a spray tower scrubber system for your operations. Whether your emissions contain hot gases, large particulate matter, or you need a pre-cleaning system, our more than 25 years of experience with mass transfer products can help. We offer full engineering support, from specification to installation.
When a Spray Tower Scrubber May Be Right for Your Operations
A spray chamber scrubber, as this system is sometimes known, uses liquid sprays instead of packing for gas-liquid contact. A full spray tower scrubber system removes contaminants continuously, helping you stay compliant with environmental regulatory requirements while keeping your workplace safer — all without manual emission management. These systems are well-suited for:
- High particulate environments: With an open-tower design and no packing to foul, spray towers reduce plugging risks in particulate-laden gas streams. This makes them effective at removing larger or ‘sticky’ particles.
- Fouling applications: Dust and other properties in gases that clog packed systems can be effectively handled by spray towers. They are easier to keep clean in these challenging environments. Where downtime and maintenance are a concern, MACH Engineering can help design a low-maintenance system.
- Durability: Spray towers have a straightforward design with fewer complex components. Fewer breakdowns and simple maintenance help protect your facility’s uptime. At MACH Engineering, we design reliable systems made from materials such as fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP), polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and stainless steel to resist corrosion.
- Hot gases: For extremely hot gases, spray towers can act as quenchers, preparing gases for downstream equipment. The team at MACH Engineering can help you determine whether this type of pre-cleaning might be efficient for your operations.
While there are many benefits, keep in mind that they are less efficient at fine cleaning than packing systems and generally have lower mass-transfer efficiency. MACH Engineering can help you design a system tailored to your specific operational needs.
