Contact SupplierAn Ammonia Scrubber is a specialized air pollution control device used to remove ammonia (NH3) gas from industrial processes, air emissions, or wastewater. Ammonia is a common pollutant in various industries, and scrubbers are employed to prevent its release into the atmosphere or water bodies, as high ammonia concentrations can have detrimental effects on the environment and human health.
An ammonia scrubber working process:
1.Inlet: Ammonia-laden air or gas enters the ammonia scrubber from an industrial process or emission source.
2.Scrubbing Solution: Inside the scrubber, there is a liquid solution, often water-based, which may contain chemicals or reagents designed to react with and capture ammonia. The choice of scrubbing solution depends on the specific application and the concentration of ammonia to be removed.
3.Gas-Liquid Contact: The incoming gas is brought into contact with the scrubbing solution. Ammonia gas molecules dissolve into the liquid phase due to chemical reactions between the ammonia and the scrubbing solution. These reactions may involve acid-base reactions or other chemical processes, depending on the specific scrubber design.
4.Separation: After the ammonia gas has been absorbed by the scrubbing solution, the clean air exits the scrubber, while the ammonia-rich liquid is collected at the bottom of the scrubber vessel.
5.Recovery or Treatment: In some cases, the collected ammonia-rich liquid can be treated or further processed to recover ammonia for reuse or safely dispose of it, depending on the specific application.
Ammonia scrubbers are commonly used in various applications, including:
•Agriculture: To control ammonia emissions from animal husbandry operations, such as poultry and swine farms
•Chemical Manufacturing: To capture and control ammonia emissions from chemical production processes.
•Wastewater Treatment: To remove ammonia from wastewater streams to meet regulatory discharge limits.
•Industrial Facilities: To control ammonia emissions from various industrial processes, such as refrigeration, petrochemical, and food processing.
•Air Pollution Control: To reduce ammonia emissions from industrial stacks and exhausts to comply with air quality regulations.
