Scrubber
A device that captures solid or liquid particles suspended in gas or unwanted or harmful gaseous components contained in gas. Usually, water is used as the cleaning liquid, but liquids other than water or liquids with surfactants added can also be used. When cleaning and capturing solid or liquid particles, the device is a type of dust collector and is called a scrubbing dust collector. The particles are captured by droplets or liquid films. There are various types of scrubbers, such as jet scrubbers that spray high-pressure water, cyclone scrubbers with many spray nozzles inside the cyclone, Peabody scrubbers with a tray tower, Theisen washer that introduces dust-laden gas and liquid to the center of the rotating blades, and cyclone scrubbers with a Venturi tube built into the cyclone.
