of  traditional grouping was consciously planned to  foster technology
transfer and a maximum interface in related fields.  The seven series
are:

     1.  Environmental Health Effects Research
     2.  Environmental Protection Technology
     3.  Ecological Research
     4.  Environmental Monitoring
     5.  Socioeconomic Environmental Studies
     6.  Scientific and Technical Assessment Reports (STAR)
     7.  Interagency Energy-Environment Research  and Development

This report has been assigned to the INTERAGENCY  ENERGY-ENVIRONMENT
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT series.  Reports in  this series result from
the effort funded under the 17-agency Federal Energy/Environment
Research and Development Program.  These studies  relate to EPA's
mission to protect the public health and welfare  from adverse effects
of  pollutants associated with energy systems.   The  goal of the Program
is  to assure the rapid development of domestic  energy supplies in an
environmentally—compatible manner by providing the necessary
environmental data and control technology. Investigations include
analyses of the transport of energy-related pollutants and their health
and ecological effects; assessments of, and development of, control
technologies for energy systems; and integrated assessments of a wide
range of energy-related environmental issues.

                           ABSTRACT


      The performance of the Century Industrial Products FRP-100 wet
scrubber installed on a lightweight aggregate kiln was evaluated with a field
test.  Inlet-outlet tests for particle-size distribution with cascade impactors
and extractive sampling with an electrical aerosol size analyzer, and plume
opacity with a plant process visiometer were conducted.   The scrubber,
operating at 80 percent of the rated capacity, had an aerodynamic cut diameter
(50 percent collection efficiency) of 0. 8 microns at a theoretical hydraulic
power of 15. 8 watts/am /min (0. 6 hp/1000 acfm).  The liquid-to-gas ratio
was about 2. 16 1/m3 (16 gal/1000 acf).

      The formation of submicron aerosol from the evaporation in the gas
cooling section of water containing dissolved solids was observed during all
tests. Also,  the carryover of spray from the scrubber (there was no mist
eliminator) was observed at flow rates greater than 23. 7 m  /sec (50, 000
acfm).

                           SECTION 1

                        INTRODUCTION
      The Century Industrial Products  FRP-100 wet scrubber was evalu-
ated with field measurements of collection efficiency and analysis of power
consumption.  The scrubber is  a horizontal s'pray chamber with a low pres-
sure drop on the gas side.  Most of the scrubbing power is introduced
through the water side by pressure drop through spray nozzles.

      The scope of the study was limited to the field test of a single unit.
The following  tests were conducted:

      •     Cascade impactor tests at the inlet and  outlet

      •     Extractive sampling and measurement of sub-
            micron particles with a  ThermoSystems, Inc.,
            Electrical Aerosol Size Analyzer (EASA) at
            the inlet and outlet

      •     Opacity measurement with a Meteorology Re-
            search,  Inc. Plant Process Visiometer  (PPV)
            at the inlet and outlet

      The energy use of this scrubber was compared to other scrubber
types and particle-size dependent penetration determined for this unit.

                           SECTION 2

            CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
      This evaluation was one of a series of such evaluations being con-
ducted by the Industrial Environmental Research Laboratory of the Environ-
mental Protection Agency (EPA) to identify and test novel devices  which are
capable of high efficiency collection of fine particulates.  The test methods
used were not the  usual compliance-type methods but were,  rather,  state-
of-the-art techniques for measuring efficiency as a function of particle size
using cascade impactors and an Electrical Aerosol Size Analyzer.

      The following conclusions were made during this study:

1.    The performance of the scrubber was compared to  that of a theoreti-
      cal venturi scrubber and found to have about a 60 percent smaller
      aerodynamic cut diameter on the average for the same theoretical
      power requirements.  However, the standard deviation of the aero-
      dynamic cut diameter was about 30 percent of the mean.  Thus, much
      of the difference is contained within the error band of the measure-
      ment.

2.    Water carryover from the scrubber was detected at gas flows in ex-
      cess of 23. 6 m3/sec (50, 000 acfm).  The subject scrubber was not
      equipped with a mist eliminator.

3.    Submicron particles were generated in the cooling section of the
      scrubber from evaporation of dissolved solids in the water.  This
      phenomena tended to obscure the requirements of the test to quantify
      the fine particle collection efficiency of the scrubber.  The subject
      device did not meet the objectives of EPA to identify fine  particle
      collectors.

      It is recommended, for operations where scrubbers are practical,
the Century scrubber should be considered if the emissions are not pre-
dominantly fine particles.

            DESCRIPTION OF SITE AND SCRUBBER
SITE DESCRIPTION

      The field tests were conducted at a plant producing lightweight aggre-
gate. Shale mined from a. nearby quarry is transported to the site and
stored in a covered area.  The crushed shale is conveyed to two rotary
kilns which are fired by pulverized coal.  In the kilns,  the shale is expand-
ed to reduce the density of the material.  The expanded shale is allowed to
cool in stockpiles  and is crushed to  the desired size.  The exhaust gases
from the kiln are ducted to a single  wet scrubber.  The saturated gases
are then exhausted to the atmosphere through a 2. 4 m (8-foot) diameter
stack.

SCRUBBER DESCRIPTION

General  Description

     A diagram of the  scrubber is shown in Figure 3-1. The unit consists
of three  sections:  cooling section, scrubbing section,  and the stack.  In the
cooling section, the gas is quenched to a  temperature less than 77° C (170°F)
by evaporation of a water spray.

      The scrubbing section is a large circular chamber consisting of two
sections  of nozzles, a high-pressure and low-pressure.  The high-pressure
nozzles are suspended from horizontal headers and the low-pressure noz-
zles from vertical headers.  The high-pressure nozzles (fine droplet) are
located near the front of the chamber, while the low-pressure nozzles
(coarse droplet) are near the  rear of the  chamber.  The mechanism for
collection is claimed to be capture of the particles with the fine droplets
and then removal of the droplet-particle with the coarse droplets.

      The stack may contain baffles or a  demister, depending on the instal-
lation.

 Configuration of Scrubber at Site

      The subject scrubber had some features which were unique to the site.

      •     The scrubber had no mist eliminators.  The scrubber
            only had a diagonal baffle at the outer radius of the ex-
            haust elbow

      •     The nozzle configuration consisted of 43 high-pressure
            and 23 low-pressure nozzles

      •     The cooling section was modified by plant personnel
            from that supplied by the vendor.  The spray rings
            were replaced by a pair of low-pressure nozzles di-
            rected into the gas flow

      •     The water was recirculated through a series of four
            settling ponds. Sufficient water was added at the final
            pond to make up for evaporation from the ponds  and in
            the scrubber

-------
•    A high-pressure pump with a 40 hp motor and a low-
     pressure pump with a 50 hp motor were installed at
     the site.  A rather long piping  run of about 100 m was
     between the pump and scrubber

•    The scrubber is  operated at about 80 percent the rated
     gas volume

                          FIELD TEST
TEST PLAN

General

      The test plan called for measurement of the size fractional collection
efficiency for normal operating conditions.   Cascade impactors were used
for measurement of particles above 0. 50 micron in diameter, and a Model
3030 ThermoSystems, Inc.,  Electrical Aerosol Size Analyzer (EASA) was
used to measure particle distribution from 0. 003 to 1. 0 microns in diameter.
Supporting measurements included gas composition with an Orsat analyzer,
gas velocity, process flows,  opacity, and power required.

      The small size  of the sampling platform prevented truly simultaneous
tests.  However,  inlet-outlet EASA and four inlet and two outlet impactor
tests were completed on the  same day.

Schedule
      The scrubber was tested three days in an "as is" condition.  The rup-
ture of a waterline on the scrubber forced an outage of the plant to repair
the scrubber. Inspection of the scrubber indicated a buildup of material
at the dry-wet interface, a deposit of material in the lower 1/3 of the scrub-
ber, and several items (such as missing nozzles) requiring maintenance.

      The scrubber was cleaned and maintenance performed on the unit.  The
scrubber was again tested under normal operation conditions.  A total of
three days of testing was conducted under conditions of a maintained unit.
These data are presented in this report as being representative  of opera-
tion of the  scrubber as designed.

GAS MEASUREMENT

      The gas volumetric flow was obtained using a multipoint traverse with
a pitot probe following EPA Methods 1 and 2.  The concentration of Qg, CO,
and CQs was measured with an Orsat analysis following EPA Method 3.  The
water content of the flue gas was obtained with the impinger catch during the
cascade impactor tests.

SIZE DISTRIBUTION MEASUREMENT

Cascade Impactor

      The Meteorology Research, Inc. (MRI) Model 1502 Cascade Impactor
was used in the test.  The MRI Cascade Impactor is an annular jet-collector
type, similar to that reported by Cohen and Montan (1967).  A cut-away
drawing of the instrument is shown in Figure 4-1.  The body of the device
consists of quick connect rings supporting jet plates, collection discs,  and
a built-in filter holder.  The design permits flexibility in application to
various  sampling  situations.
                                             *
      The particulate matter is collected on collection discs.   The discs are
a lightweight metal stamping (730 mg) of 316 stainless steel.  The discs
•were used  only once, thereby permitting a permanent record of the test.

      The surface of the collection disc for the outlet tests was prepared
with a solution of high-vacuum grease in toluene.  The solution was  painted
onto the discs.  It was found that the thickness of the coating is important
in the performance of the impactor.  After air drying, the discs  were heated
at 149°C (300 °F) for 4 hours to remove volatiles.   The collection discs were
handled with clean forceps by the edge to prevent contamination and  weight
changes.

      The filter was held by Kapton washers and was backed by a porous
metal plate.  A tared aluminum foil dish was used to weigh the filter and
Kapton washers.

      The inlet impactors utilized Reeve Angel 934AH glass fiber filter
mats as collection substrates held down with a stainless steel rim.

      The weighing of the collection discs was a critical part of the test.
The collection disc was designed to fit the weighing chamber of a Cahn 4100
Electrobalance.  The weighings were conducted at the motel to avoid dis-
ruptions due to low-frequency plant vibration.  The discs and filters were
desiccated for 24 hours before weighing to stabilize the water content.

      A weighing by substitution method was used.

Quality Control Tests--
      Two types of quality control tests were conducted.

Controls--
      Collection discs were prepared normally and transported to the test
site,  but not mounted into an impactor.  The control collection disc was a
good  check of the performance in weighing of the samples.  The tests of
                                 7

weighing repeatability were conducted with the collection discs under field
conditions during the normal pattern of work.  Thus, problems with static
charges,  balance adjustments,  and handling were identified.

Blank tests--
      Blank tests are impactors prepared in the normal manner which
sampled only filtered stack gas.  These runs can identify problems from
chemical reactions of the substrate with stack  gas,  loss of substrate from
vaporization or abrasion,  and contamination of the substrates from leaks,
or during assembly and disassembly.  The blank runs also have at least one
control disc.

      The  results of  the control and blank test at the inlet are shown in
Table 4-1.  The  control value of 0. 04 mg is within precision of the balance.
The blank value of 0. 18 mg is probably due to the high SOg concentration and
elevated temperature of 277 ° C (530 °F).  The tests were conducted for long
enough times to obtain sufficient particulate matter to reduce the  effects  of
substrate weight changes.

      The outlet impactors were modified with a 30 cm (12-inch) nozzle ex-
tension.   The nozzle extension was heated with a 50 watt heater, and the  im-
pactor body was  heated with a 350 watt heater.  The heaters were  sealed
with tape to insulate  and waterproof the assembly.   The temperature of the
gas at the outlet of the impactor was monitored during the test. A tempera-
ture of at least 82°C (180°F) was maintained to avoid  water condensation.

      The sample train used for the impactor tests  consisted of:

      •     An in-stack impactor with a stainless steel probe

      •     Hose to four Greenberg-Smith impingers containing
            100 ml water in each of the first two impingers, the
            third dry, and the final containing  silica gel

      •     A dry gas meter and pump following the impingers

Submicron Particles

      The measurement of the  size distribution of submicron particles was
a two-stage process:

      1.     The aerosol sample was removed from the stack and
            diluted with clean,  dry air
      2.     The particulate matter in the diluted gas was then
            measured with an EASA

      The sample was extracted at nonisokinetic flow rates due to system
design and instrumentation specifications.  This should not affect sample
collection of the submicron particles of interest.

      A precutter was used to prevent large particle contamination of the
fine particle sample train. A modified MRI Model 1502 Cascade Impactor
was used to mate  with the environment being sampled.  The advantage of
using the modified impactor by eliminating  collection discs and filter media
is the flexibility of determining the d50  separation point by manipulation of
stage jet diameters.  When assembled properly, the impactor allows sam-
ples to be collected for approximately eight hours without plugging.  The
inlet of the precutter-impactor should face  downstream of particle flow.

      Diluting the sample served a dual purpose:

      •     Matching sample concentrations to particle detection
            capabilities

      •     Reducing the dew point of the sample

      Dry dilution air was created by recirculating air through a bed of
CaSO4 desiccant (dew point,  -68 °C) and then filtering to prevent contamina-
tion.  Dilution was accomplished by a three-stage process of mixing the dry,
particle-free dilution air with the sample.  Sample flow was measured by
venturi-type flow meters preceding each dilution stage, while dilution flows
are measured across orifice-type meters.  Temperatures and pressures
were also monitored throughout the flow scheme. Tubing diameters in the
sample path are reasonably large (0. 95 cm diameter) to minimize particle
loss due to diffusion, and tubing lengths were short to minimize sample
residence time.   Flow control was accomplished by manipulation of the
dilution air control valves.

      Dilution ratios of about 6:1 to  1000:1  can be obtained by adjustment of
the control valves.

      Figures 4-2 and 4-3 illustrate the extractive sampling systems at the
inlet and outlet of the scrubber.  The outlet cascade impactor precutter and
probe required electrical heat tracing to evaporate entrained droplets be-
fore dilution.

      The operation of the EASA for source measurements was described by
Sem (1976).  The  EASA must be protected from dirt and moisture and iso-
lated from vibration for  successful operation.

OPACITY MEASUREMENT

      The opacity at the inlet and outlet of the scrubber was measured with
an MsRI Plant Process Visiometer.   The instrument was installed in a 3-inch
port, and the sample was heated to remove water vapor.  A diagram of the
instrument is shown in Figure 4-4.  The aerosol particles in the chamber
are illuminated by a flash lamp.  The optics have been designed so that the
output of the photomultiplier tube is proportional to the  extinction coefficient
due to scattered light.  The instrument is a physical analog  of the following
equation:
                 b       =   2V     &( 9 ) sin  0  d  0
                  S Cctt
where
      b     = the scattering coefficient due to scattered light
       S Celt
      /3( 9 )= volume scattering function
      0     = scattering angle

If there is no light absorption, the scattering coefficient is identical to the
extinction coefficient.  The extinction coefficient is related to plume opacity
with the Bouguer Law.

                 Opacity (percent) =   j"l - exp (-b   L)~|  100

where

      b     = extinction coefficient, m

      L     = stack diameter, m

      The instrument is spanned •with an internal calibrator consisting of an
opal glass lens of known scattering coefficient.  The lens is mechanically
placed in the view of the detector for calibration and was retracted into a
sealed chamber between calibrations.  The PPV calibrator is calibrated with
oil smoke with reference instruments using both an integration nephelometer
and a transmissometer.  The PPV was described in detail by Ensor,  et al
(1974).
                                                                       i
      The PPV at the inlet of the  scrubber was mounted on a support at the
ground.   The sample was removed from the stack with a 1/2-inch ID stain-
less steel probe extending 0. 65 m (2 feet) into the stack through an elbow and
down through a vertical 1-inch diameter pipe 2. 1 m (7 feet) long to the optical
chamber.  The inlet probe was aligned with the flow, and near isokinetic
sampling rate was maintained.  The sample rate was estimated to be 0. 28
m /min (10 cfm).  A high -efficiency aspirator at the exhaust of the optical

chamber was supplied with compressed air from a Rotron blower.  The in-
let piping and optical chamber were insulated and heated to keep the aerosol
above the water dew point.

      The PPV at the outlet was mounted on the sampling platform.   The
electrically heated probe extended about 0.65 m (2 feet) into  the stack.  The
inlet of the probe was protected by a flat splash plate to prevent entrained
water droplets from entering the probe.

      In both instruments, the optical chamber was electrically heated.  A
remote control panel was rack-mounted in the truck.   The light scattering
coefficients were recorded on strip charts.  The remote control panel has
controls to allow remote operation of the instruments.  Each PPV was ad-
justed to provide a typical midscale reading.

      The internal opal glass calibrator is used as a field reference.  After
installation, the instruments were operated  continuously.  The zero and span
were  checked at least three times per day by back-flushing with clean air
and activating the calibrator.  Thus both a check of the electronics and drift
and contamination of the optical surfaces were  obtained.   When required,
the units were cleaned and adjusted.

                     FIELD TEST RESULTS


CALCULATION OF SCRUBBER PERFORMANCE

      The performance of this  scrubber was compared to other types of
scrubbers with the following procedure:

      •     The theoretical hydraulic power required for the
            scrubber was computed from both the gas and
            water flows and pressure drop

      •     The scrubber performance aerodynamic  cut dia-
            meter was computed from the cascade impactor
            results.   The cut diameter as defined by Calvert,
            et al (1972) is the particle size  collected with 50
            percent efficiency in the scrubber

      •     Utilizing  results reported by Calvert (1974) and
            adapted by Cooper and Anderson (1975),  the per-
            formance of the subject scrubber was compared
            to the theoretical performance of other common
            types of scrubbers

PROCESS FLOWS AND POWER REQUIRED

Gas Flows

      The gas flows were determined by using an S-type pitot tube.  A 36-
point traverse at the inlet upstream of the cooling  section and a 48-point
traverse at  the outlet were conducted each day.   In addition, a 1. 22 m (4-foot)
extension was added to the stack to reduce the effect of local winds on the
stack velocity.

      The results of the gas flow measurement are summarized in Table 5-1.
The inlet velocity traverse is more reliable than the outlet tests for the fol-
lowing reasons:

      •     The outlet test location was about one stack diameter
            downstream from a bend and 1/2 upstream diameter
            from the exhaust [with 1. 22 m (4-foot)  extension]

      •     There was minor gas leakage at the juncture of the
            duct work and scrubber

      •     The inlet traverse point was a good sampling loca-
            tion and had sufficient flow for good measurement
            accuracy

      •     The outlet gas velocity was low [about 3. 66 m/sec
            (12 ft/sec)] thus prone  to measurement error.  Also,
            the drop laden emissions tended to fill the pitot pressure
            lines with water

      The inlet velocity adjusted to scrubber conditions  and a saturated water
content were used for the actual gas volumetric flow rate.

      The water carry-over summarized in Table 5-1 and Figure 5-1, was
estimated by the additional water in excess of saturation. Based on the
limited data, the carry-over is a sensitive function of gas velocity in the
scrubber.   Unless an entrainment  separator is installed, carry-over might
limit the capacity of the unit.

Gas Composition Measurements

      Results from the Orsat tests are summarized in Table  5-2.

Water Flows

      The water flow was estimated by counting the number of high and low
pressure nozzles and using the rated water flow rate.  The calculation is
summarized in Table 5-3.

Power Requirements

      The determination of the hydraulic power required is shown in Table
5-4.  The power loss computations developed by Semrau, as  reported in
Strauss (1974), were used to compute the theoretical energy  required.  The
power measured at the  pumps is also included for comparison.

PARTICLE COLLECTION EFFICIENCY

Size Distribution

      The impactor and EASA results were combined to obtain particle size
distribution and fractional penetration curves over the particle size ranges
of both instruments.  The particle  density was assumed to be 2 g/cm during
the computation of the actual particle diameter for the impactor  tests.  The
stage calibration constant for the impactor (¥50) was assumed to be 0. 38.

c--Determined by measuring the applied voltage and amperage at the two pumps.  The difference between the hydraulic power and
   measured power was due to line pressure drop, pump efficiency, and power factor.

-------
      The size distribution statistics are reported in Table 5-5.   The geo-
metric mass mean diameter and geometric  standard deviations were deter-
mined by a least squares fit to a lognormal  size distribution.  These statis-
tics indicate the mean diameter and width of the distribution.  The correla-
tion coefficient indicates the goodness  of the fit.  The inlet particulate
matter was very coarse and in many tests the major fraction of the weight
was on the first stage of the impactor.

      The particle size distributions are shown in Figures  5-2 to 5-4.  These
curves were computed with a procedure reported by Markowski and Ensor
(1977) which is a modification of a technique developed by Calvert and re-
ported by Ensor et al (1975). The impactor data is  plotted as cumulative
"smaller than" mass versus diameter curves.- These curves are then
interpolated to consistent selected size increments with a fitting routine
utilizing overlapping parabolas.   The differential curves in Figures 5-2 to
5-4 are the slopes of the cumulative curve at the selected diameters.  The
mean and standard deviation are computed for the differential distributions
from all tests  at a given operating condition.

Penetration

      The penetration of particles through the scrubber shown in Figures
5-5 to 5-7 is simply the outlet differential size distribution divided by the
inlet differential size distribution.  The standard deviation for the penetra-
tion is given by:
                                             v
                                      -^t
                                      \   out  '
where
      S     =   Standard deviation
      F    =   Differential distribution
      P    =   Penetration
      in    =   Inlet
      out   =   Outlet
      The Standard deviation contains both process variation and measure-
ment errors.  The cascade impactor reduced data are reported in Appendix
C.

Particle Generation

      Submicron particle generation was observed during all three days.
An estimation of the amount of particulate matter formed is reported in
Table 5-6.

      The temperature of the gas at the cooling section outlet was measured
with a dial thermometer, and the gas was assumed to be saturated with water
at that point.  The  rate of water evaporated was used with the concentration
of dissolved solids in the supply water  to estimate the amount of solids
formed in the scrubber.  These estimates of particulate  formation do ex-
plain the day-to-day variation of aerosol generation in a  qualitative fashion.

      The particulate matter is believed to form primarily from evaporation
of water in the cooling section.   In the  remainder of the  scrubber, water
vapor is being condensed, probably from sensible heat transfer from the
incoming scrubbing water.   The condensing conditions may possibly aid the
scrubber efficiency through particle growth and phoretic forces. However,
it is apparent that the submicron particles formed in the cooling section are
not efficiently captured in the main chamber of the  scrubber.  The efficiency
of the scrubber could  be improved by using water with low dissolved  solids
in the cooling section.

      The increased concentration of particles greater than 5 microns in
diameter observed in  some impactor tests was not due to particulate genera-
tion in the scrubber.   The water droplets were not separated from the aero-
sol by a precutter but were evaporated with a heated nozzle at the inlet of
the impactor.  The residue of the droplets was collected on the  first  two
or three stages of the impactor.  Thus, the effects of liquid carry-over on
emissions can be measured.

      The actual cut diameters were taken from Figures 5-5 to 5-7.  The
aerodynamic cut diameters were then computed using the above formula.
The calculation is summarized in Table 5-6.

Comparison To Other Scrubber  Types

      The aerodynamic cut diameters calculated in Table 5-7 combined with
the power requirements from Table 5-4 are shown in Figure 5-8.  The mean
aerodynamic cut diameters are  below the theoretical performance curve
for the venturi scrubber.   This  suggests that the horizontal spray chamber
is more efficient particle collector for a given power input than the venturi
case.  However,  the error bounds are  sufficiently broad to limit conclusions.

OPACITY

      The PPV proved to  be a useful monitor of real-time operation of the
scrubber.  The inlet PPV performance was limited by the buildup of par-
ticulate matter on the flash lamp lens.   An example of the opacity data is
shown in Figure 5-9.  The opacity at the inlet and outlet are summarized
in Table 5-8.  The outlet opacity was about 30 percent of the inlet opacity
from particulate  removal in the scrubber.

         MANUFACTURER'S DESCRIPTION OF SCRUBBER

      The following is a description of the control device provided in a

brochure prepared by Century Industrial Products.  It indicates the principles
guiding the design and the specifications  for the scrubber.


      Cooling -- Hot, particulate-laden gases,  often containing
      oxides of sulfur and other noxious fumes,  are first intro-
      duced to a cooling section where rapid quenching occurs
      through exposure to cooling sprays.  Inlet temperatures
      of over 500°F  are acceptable.  Gases are cooled to  approxi-
      mately  170°F upon entering the main scrubbing shell. A
      film cooling technique is employed to  augment the  evapora-
      tive cooling sprays in maintaining temperatures well below
      tolerance levels of the fiberglass used in the cooling system
      housing the main scrubber shell.

      Particulate Scrubbing -- The capture  of fine particulates
      by water spray and subsequent removal of the particulate-
      laden  water droplets  have been  the principal mechanisms
      for the control of this type of emission from industrial
      processes for many years.  In most devices based on these
      mechanisms, the dust particle and the water droplet is
      important to efficient dust capture.  Hence,  many  scrubber
      designs in use today are of the so-called medium to high
      energy types.

      Century's research efforts have determined that the  most
      important parameter governing  the performance of a scrubber
      is the mean free path* in collisions between dust particles
      and water droplets; and that mean free path does not depend
      on the relative  velocity between the dust particle and the water
      droplet, but rather on the density of water droplets (the num-
      ber of droplets per unit volume).  The higher the density, the
      shorter the mean free path, and the higher will be  the proba-
      bility  of collisions between particulates  and water  droplets.

      However,  if the water droplets are too small, they are swept
      away readily by the gas stream  and droplet-particulate

collisions become unlikely.  Required,  then, is a low
velocity gas stream in order to maximize the scrubbing
action available in a high density field of fine water drop-
lets.   The FRP-100 achieves this by utilizing a long, hori-
zontal shell configuration with a large diameter.  Gas
velocity is thus dramatically reduced and,  therefore, the
time available for particulates to collide with the fine
water  droplets is increased.

The collisions between particles and water droplets occur
mainly in the forward section of the scrubber shell where
four arrays of nozzles produce fine spray droplets of about
200 microns in diameter.  Once these droplets have cap-
tured dust particles,  the new droplet-particle combinations
must themselves be trapped and coalesced into a stream for
discharge out of the scrubber before they can be swept  out
of the  scrubber by the gas stream.

Capture of the droplet-particle combinations is  accom-
plished by another four arrays of nozzles producing coarse
spray  droplets of about 2, 000 microns in diameter.   These
coarse droplets capture the particulate-laden small water
droplets in much the  same way the latter captured the still
smaller dust particles.  The large droplets are not swept
away by the gas stream due to their greater mass, but
impinge directly against the inside wall of the scrubber
shell.   They then flow by gravity to the  bottom of the shell
and collect for drainage out of the rear  of the scrubber.

SO B Removal —  The same principles of operation (moving
gases  at low velocity through multi-stages of water droplets)
provide a means for absorbing the water-soluble gases.
The FRP-100 utilizes 900 GPM of fluid,  which,  when atomized
by the spray nozzles,  creates  an exceedingly high liquid surface
area for contact with gases.  While efficiencies in SO2 removal
are dependent upon the alkalinity of the  scrubbing  fluid, the
SO2 concentration, and gas flow rate through the scrubber,
significant removal is obtainable using only moderately alka-
line (not slurry) water supplies.

Dimensions of the FRP-100 Scrubber

The scrubbing section of the FRP-100 Scrubber is 12 feet inside
diameter and 40 feet long.  The cooling section  is 8 feet long
by approximately 6 feet in diameter.  Exhaust stacks are custom
designed for particular applications.

16. ABSTRACT
          The report gives results of a field test evaluation of the performance of
the Century Industrial Products FRP-100 wet scrubber installed on a lightweight
aggregate kiln.  Inlet/outlet tests for particle size distribution with cascade impactors
and extractive sampling with an electrical aerosol size analyzer, and plume opacity
with a plant process visiometer were conducted. The scrubber, operating at 80%
rated capacity,  had an aerodynamic cut diameter (50% collection efficiency) of 0.8
microns at a theoretical hydraulic power of 15.8 watts/a cu m/min (0.6 hp/1000 acfm]
The liquid-to-gas ratio was  about 2.16 1/cu  m (16 gal./lOOO acf). The formation of
submicron aerosol from the evaporation in the gas  cooling section of water containing
dissolved solids was observed during all tests. Also,  the carryover of spray from
the scrubber (there was no mist eliminator) was observed at flow rates greater than
23.7 cu m/sec (50,000 acfm).
