Wet scrubber | Customizable

A wet scrubber is a versatile gas cleaning device that comes with the attendant issue of pollution transfer. It is particularly suitable for treating industrial exhaust gases that are high in temperature, high in humidity, flammable/explosive, contain acidic gases, or have sticky dust. It is commonly found in chemical plants, power plants, waste incineration plants, metal smelting facilities, and the woodworking industry.

Wet scrubber – alkaline gases, fine dust, heavy metal vapors, and some water-soluble VOCs simultaneously in a single device.

Shenzhen Xicheng (Xicheng) focuses on R&D and manufacturing of exhaust gas treatment systems and engineering plastic equipment. We provide one-stop solutions—from site survey, process design, installation & commissioning to operation & maintenance—for factories in the chemical, electroplating, food, textile & dyeing, and heavy industries.

Unlike single-function dedicated equipment (fabric filters only remove dust, activated carbon mainly adsorbs organics), Xicheng’s wet scrubber can simultaneously treat solid, liquid, and gas phase pollutants in one device, tackling the most complex exhaust gas challenges.

 


Wet scrubber: A Multi-Functional, Flexible Solution

The wet scrubber uses liquid (water, alkaline/acid solutions, oxidants, etc.) to absorb, neutralize, and wash away multiple pollutants:

  • ✅ Solid phase: Fine dust, ultrafine dust (including PM2.5), sticky dust, flammable/explosive dust

  • ✅ Acidic gas phase: HCl, SO₂, H₂S, HF, NOₓ, Cl₂, CrO₃ …

  • ✅ Alkaline gas phase: NH₃, amines …

  • ✅ Heavy metal vapors: Hg, Pb, Cd, Cr …

  • ✅ VOCs (partial): Acetone, ethanol, formaldehyde …

 


Eight Outstanding Advantages of Xicheng’s Wet Scrubbing Technology

✅ 1. Versatile – One unit replaces multiple processes

Pollutant Type Traditional Equipment Xicheng Wet Scrubber
Dust Bag filter / Cyclone ✅ Direct treatment
Acidic gases Separate absorption tower ✅ Direct treatment
Alkaline gases Separate unit ✅ Direct treatment
Heavy metal vapors Expensive filter media ✅ Direct treatment
Water-soluble VOCs Activated carbon ✅ Partial absorption

Benefit: Saves space, reduces equipment investment, simplifies operation.

 

✅ 2. Handles “Difficult” Conditions – High temperature, high humidity, flammable/explosive

Challenging Condition Capability of Wet Scrubber
High temperature (200-400°C) Direct treatment, cooling by water evaporation, no pre-cooling needed
High humidity, dust that condenses No clogging; unlike fabric filters, no “bag blinding”
Flammable/explosive dust (Al, Mg, coal) Water environment eliminates ignition sources – completely safe
Sticky, oily, or hygroscopic dust Washed away completely, no adhesion to equipment

 

✅ 3. Integrated Cooling, Humidification & Gas Conditioning

  • Rapid cooling: Reduces exhaust temperature to below 80°C within a short distance.

  • Humidification: Provides required humidity for downstream biological treatment or wet processes.

  • Neutralization of corrosive gases: Converts HCl, SO₂ into neutral salts, protecting chimneys and fans.

 

✅ 4. Very High Removal Efficiency Across a Wide Particle Size Range

Parameter Efficiency
Dust >1µm ≥ 99%
Dust 0.3-1µm ≥ 95%
PM2.5 (Venturi design) ≥ 90%
Acidic gases (HCl, SO₂) 95 – 99% (depending on liquid-to-gas ratio)

 

✅ 5. Safe, Reliable, No Secondary Dust

  • No secondary dust: Dust is trapped in water and discharged as sludge.

  • Few moving parts: Spray tower has no complex internal mechanisms – fewer failure points.

  • Adapts to load fluctuations: When flow or concentration changes, simply adjust spray rate or chemical dosage – still meets emission standards.

 

✅ 6. Compact Design, Modular, Easy to Integrate

  • One wet scrubber replaces cyclone + bag filter + absorption tower – saves 50-70% floor space.

  • Can be designed as vertical, horizontal, or skid-mounted – easy to transport and install.

 

✅ 7. Recovers Valuable By-Products

Inlet Gas Recovered Product Application
H₂S Sulfur Chemical raw material
SO₂ Gypsum (CaSO₄) Gypsum board production
HCl Regenerated hydrochloric acid Reused in electroplating, etc.

 

✅ 8. Insensitive to Inlet Dust Concentration

Equipment Type Recommended Max Inlet Dust Concentration
Bag filter <50 g/m³ (higher accelerates bag wear)
Xicheng Wet Scrubber >100 g/m³ (only need to increase sludge discharge frequency)

Especially suitable for high‑dust‑load industries: coal‑fired boilers, mineral crushing, cement kilns, etc.


Industry Applications

Industry Typical Application
Chemicals & Fertilizers Treat HCl, SO₂, NH₃, fertilizer dust
Electroplating, Battery Manufacturing Absorb acid mist, Cr⁶⁺, lead, mercury
Boilers, Waste Incineration SO₂ removal, NOₓ reduction, cooling, coal dust removal
