The process
Gas fired crematoria need an ID fan to hold the chamber under draft through the after-burner and any scrubber, with dilution air to protect the fan and stack. Quiet running matters at these sites.
The gas
Flue gas after the quench and scrubber is wet, acidic and still carries fine dust. The fan is in stainless steel or lined construction, with a shaft seal and drains, sized at the saturated density.
Selection for this process
| Type | Venturi for fine dust |
| Material | Stainless steel |
| Outlet | Mist eliminator ahead of the fan; fan in the same material as the scrubber |
