Horizontal
Gas Scrubbers

Like vertical gas scrubbers, horizontal gas scrubbers are designed to remove harmful pollutants from gas streams, including sulfur dioxide (SO₂), nitrogen oxides (NOx), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and particulate matter. This is achieved using a scrubbing liquid that absorbs or chemically neutralizes these contaminants.

These systems are widely used in chemical plants, refineries, and power plants.

HOW DOES A HORIZONTAL GAS SCRUBBER WORK?

The key difference between horizontal and vertical scrubbers lies in the gas flow direction and its interaction with the scrubbing liquid.

Horizontal gas scrubbers operate on the absorption principle, where pollutants are captured in a liquid. The contaminated gas flows horizontally, while the scrubbing liquid moves downward via gravity or is sprayed into the system.

This intensive contact between gas and liquid allows pollutants to be absorbed or chemically transformed, ensuring efficient air purification.

The choice of scrubbing liquid and operational settings depends on the specific pollution type and industrial requirements.

BENEFITS OF A HORIZONTAL GAS SCRUBBER

  • Low pressure drop, ensuring an energy-efficient process.
  • High removal efficiency for various gas components.
  • Less susceptible to fouling, reducing maintenance needs.
  • Easy maintenance


Horizontal gas scrubbers are used for recovering valuable substances, reducing industrial emissions, and preventing corrosion or odor nuisances.

In Detail

1. GAS INLET

The contaminated gas stream is directed horizontally through the scrubbing chamber.

2. LIQUID SUPPLY

A liquid, usually water or a chemical solution, is introduced into the scrubber via horizontal flow or a spray system.

3. GAS-LIQUID CONTACT

The gas and liquid mix, enhancing pollutant absorption.

4. ABSORPTION OR CHEMICAL REACTION

Harmful components are absorbed into the liquid or undergo chemical transformation.

5. CLEAN GAS OUTLET

The purified gas passes through a droplet separator, removing liquid residues before release.

6. DISCHARGE OF CONTAMINATED LIQUID

The polluted liquid is sent to a treatment or neutralization system.
