KCH - Vertical Counter-Current Scrubbers
Vertical Counter-current Scrubbers typically provide the most efficient removal of soluble acid gases. Counter-current refers to the direction of the contaminated airstream in relation to the fluid that scrubs it.
KCH offers the following standardized line of counter-current scrubbers:
Phaser Series Scrubbers – Standard sizes in 100 to 24,000 CFM. Optional high velocity sizes up to 80,000 CFM. Equipped with self contained or remotely installed recirculation system. Optional inlet and outlet orientations.
- Phaser III Series
- Phaser V Series
Omni Series Scrubbers – Integral Fan Mounted on Top of Unit. Standard sizes in 100 to 12,000 CFM. Ultimate space saver. Equipped with self contained or remotely installed recirculation system.

An Exhaust Fan forces or induces the polluted gas stream through Corrosion Resistant Ductwork and into the Wet Scrubber vessel, where it encounters liquid to gas contact from the scrubbing solution and packing media with high surface area. The polluted gas stream is chemically absorbed into the liquid scrubbing solution through mass transfer. The clean air stream then passes through a Mist Eliminator, which separates entrained mist droplets from the air stream through inertial impaction and mechanical impingement. The clean airstream is then exhausted to atmosphere. Some gases, such as HCL, can form an aerosol or "acid fog" inside the Wet Scrubber vessel as it cools. To mitigate this problem, a high efficiency Composite Mesh Pad Mist Eliminator is incorporated into the design.
