REITHER^® venturi scrubber

The REITHER^® venturi scrubber, developed by Dr. Diplom-Ingenieur Reither, has a unique design of a double venturi enabling an efficient separation of the finest dust aerosols from 0.3 to 20 µm at very high efficiencies with reasonable pressure drop.

Venturi scrubber

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

See BAYER-REITHER^® for a venturi scrubber including hybrid nozzles.

Range

Gas flow : up to 250 000 m³/h
Particle size distribution : > 0.3 µm
Dust concentration : < 1 g/m³

Separation of

Superfine dusts (metallic, pigments, flue dust, smoke, silica dust)
Acid mists (HCl, H₂SO₄, H₃POV…)
Salt aerosols (chloride, fluorides…)
Metal oxides (copper, zinc, lead, titanium…)
Non adhesive agents (Al(OH)₃…)

Applications

Chemical manufacturing (incineration/boiler…)
Metallurgic industry (iron & steel, metal smelting, metal finishing & plating)
Pharmaceutical plant
Pesticides plant
Paint & coating industry
Food & beverage industry (atomizer, dryer…)

Advantages

Simple and compact design
Cost effective
High collection efficiency on superfine dusts and aerosols with low pressure drop
Controllable on different flow patterns, dust loads, etc…
Simultaneous absorption of gaseous pollutants possible
Adjustable venturi throat – manual or automatic
Handles high inlet gas temperatures
Non-clogging
