REITHER® Venturi Scrubber

Separation of finest particles

The SOCREMATIC venturi scrubber range includes the REITHER® and Hybrid REITHER® venturi scrubber solutions.

The venturi scrubber system REITHER® is a high efficiency wet scrubber design, suitable for separation of particles down to the submicron range. It is simple in its design and suitable for variable waste gas flow rates due to the adjustment of the Venturi throat. In a centrifugal mist eliminator adjacent to the contact zone, the scrubbing liquid droplets are removed from gas flow.

The REITHER^® venturi scrubber is designed for efficient separation of the finest dust aerosols. It is equipped with an adjustable venturi throat cross section which maintains a constant pressure drop across the throat and allowing a constant separation efficiency, independent of any flow rate fluctuation.

REITHER® Venturi scrubbers are particularly effective at removing particles from 0.3 to 50 µm at very high efficiencies. New technology in venturi scrubbing of flue gas particulates, and aerosols achieves removal efficiencies up to 99% on particles and aerosols down to 0.3 µm. At the sub-micron zone, the principle of venturi scrubbing forces the contact of the particle with fine water droplets.

Developed in association with Bayer, the HYBRID REITHER® venturi includes hybrid nozzles which lead to dust pre-agglomeration. In the Hybrid nozzle the scrubbing liquid is atomized by compressed air, whereby a pulsation of ejection of drops is produced by installed resonance chambers. This scrubber achieves very high efficiency separation of sub-micron dusts with a low pressure drop. The design allows it also to be used as a gas absorber.

Hybrid-REITHER® venturi scrubber

Developed in association with Bayer, the venturi Hybrid REITHER® scrubber combines the technology of jet washers and REITHER® venturi scrubbers. As the REITHER® venturi scrubbers, the Hybrid REITHER® is equipped with an adjustable throat cross section which maintains a constant pressure drop across the throat, hence a constant separation efficiency, independent of any flow rate fluctuation. As in a jet scrubber, the use of hybrid compressed air-water nozzles allows the spraying of very fine drops of water.

The specially designed nozzles have the additional feature of spraying with a pulsating motion that causes very strong turbulence within the gas and leads to pre-agglomeration of dust particles. The gases mixed with the water drops are then passed through a venturi throat in order to capture the ultra-fine dust in the washing liquid.

This Hybrid REITHER® scrubber achieves very high efficiency separation of sub-micron dusts with a low pressure drop. The design allows it also to be used as a gas absorber.
