==AN IMPROVED WET SCRUBBER - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240017206 titled 'AN IMPROVED WET SCRUBBER

==Simplified Explanation==

The present invention is a wet scrubber for gas abatement, which includes a scrubbing vessel with a chamber, a gas inlet for supplying the gas to be scrubbed, and a gas outlet for allowing the scrubbed gas to exit. The inlet and outlet are in fluid communication with each other. The wet scrubber also has one or more scrubbing fluid supply ports. It includes at least one distribution element connected to a scrubbing fluid supply port for distributing the scrubbing fluid inside the chamber. One of the distribution elements is a distribution plate with a cavity and multiple apertures arranged to allow the scrubbing fluid to flow from the cavity.

* The wet scrubber is designed to remove harmful gases from a gas stream.
* It consists of a scrubbing vessel with a chamber, a gas inlet, and a gas outlet.
* The gas inlet supplies the gas to be scrubbed, while the gas outlet allows the scrubbed gas to exit.
* The inlet and outlet are connected to each other, allowing fluid communication.
* The wet scrubber includes one or more scrubbing fluid supply ports.
* These supply ports are connected to distribution elements that distribute the scrubbing fluid inside the chamber.
* One of the distribution elements is a distribution plate with a cavity and multiple apertures.
* The apertures are arranged in a way that enables the scrubbing fluid to flow from the cavity.

Potential applications of this technology:

* Industrial gas abatement: The wet scrubber can be used in various industries to remove harmful gases from industrial processes, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations.
* Air pollution control: It can be employed in power plants, refineries, and other facilities to reduce emissions of pollutants into the atmosphere.
* Waste gas treatment: The wet scrubber can effectively treat waste gases generated during manufacturing processes, minimizing their impact on the environment.

Problems solved by this technology:

* Gas pollution: The wet scrubber addresses the issue of gas pollution by effectively removing harmful gases from the gas stream.
* Environmental compliance: It helps industries meet regulatory requirements for emissions control and reduces the impact of their operations on the environment.
* Health and safety: By removing hazardous gases, the wet scrubber contributes to creating a safer working environment for employees and nearby communities.

Benefits of this technology:

* Efficient gas abatement: The wet scrubber provides an effective method for removing harmful gases, ensuring cleaner air and reducing the impact of industrial processes on the environment.
* Versatile application: It can be used in various industries and processes where gas abatement is required, offering flexibility and adaptability.
* Compliance with regulations: The wet scrubber helps industries meet environmental regulations and avoid penalties for non-compliance.
* Improved safety: By removing hazardous gases, it enhances workplace safety and protects the health of employees and surrounding communities.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

the present invention provides a wet scrubber for gas abatement, comprising a scrubbing vessel defining a chamber, a gas inlet for supplying a gas to be scrubbed, and a gas outlet for allowing the egress of a scrubbed gas; the inlet and outlet being in fluid communication with one another; one or more scrubbing fluid supply ports; the wet scrubber comprising at least one distribution element connected to a scrubbing fluid supply port for distributing a scrubbing fluid inside the chamber; wherein at least one said distribution element is a distribution plate comprising a cavity and a plurality of apertures arranged to allow scrubbing fluid to flow from the cavity.
