The process
Acid pickling tanks are hooded and the fume drawn to a scrubber in PP-FRP. The fan is in the same material, after the scrubber and mist eliminator, with the motor outside the gas path.
The gas
Fume from pickling, acid handling or reactor vents, corrosive and often wet. PP-FRP, FRP or rubber lined construction, with the motor outside the gas path.
Fans in this process
| Duty | What it does here | Type usually selected |
|---|---|---|
| Fume Exhaust System | Hoods, ducting and an exhaust fan that capture fume at source and deliver it to a scrubber, bag filter or stack. | Backward inclined and radial tipped |
| Mist Eliminator | Separates entrained liquid droplets from a vapour or gas stream, ahead of a compressor, a fan or a stack.. | Demister Knockdown Vessel |
| Ventilation Fan | Moves air through a plant or building for fresh air supply, heat removal and fume dilution where the system is ducted. | Backward inclined and forward curved |
