Corrosion-Resistant ConstructionEngineered with premium materialsPP, PVC, FRP, and stainless steelthe spray tower resists chemical corrosion, ensuring reliability even in harsh operating environments. An anti-corrosive coating further protects key surfaces, extending the service life to over a decade with minimal maintenance requirements.
Customizable High-Capacity SolutionCatering to diverse industrial needs, the spray towers design is available in multiple dimensions, with gas throughput ranging from 500 m3/h up to 20,000 m3/h. The choice of spiral or full cone nozzles, diverse packing materials, and analog/manual display ensures each installation is tailored for maximum operational efficiency.
FAQs of Spray Tower:
Q: How does the spray tower achieve high gas removal efficiency?
A: The tower employs spiral or full cone spray nozzles and a well-packed column to maximize gas-liquid contact, removing up to 98% of pollutants through scrubbing. Efficient circulation and anti-corrosive surface treatment ensure optimal, consistent removal in a range of industries.
Q: What materials are available for constructing the spray tower?
A: You can select from PP, PVC, FRP, mild steel, or stainless steel (304/316) for tower construction. The choice depends on the application, chemical compatibility, and process requirements, offering flexibility for various corrosive and high-temperature environments.
Q: Where can the SPT Series spray tower be installed?
A: The system is designed for vertical, floor-mounted installation. It is well-suited for chemical plants, pharmaceutical factories, food processing units, power generation facilities, and petrochemical industries, accommodating custom dimensions as needed.
Q: When is it advisable to choose a spray tower for air pollution control?
A: A spray tower is ideal when you require high gas removal efficiency, minimal pressure loss, and resistance to corrosive gases or liquids. It is particularly beneficial in applications producing stack emissions or process gas streams that demand reliable scrubbing.
Q: What maintenance is required for the spray tower to ensure longevity?
A: Routine inspection of spray nozzles, packing media, pumps, and anti-corrosive coatings is essential. Cleaning and timely replacement of core components will help maintain efficiency and ensure a service life exceeding 10 years.
Q: How is the capacity of the spray tower determined for a specific project?
A: Capacity is tailored based on stack emission flow, typically between 500 m3/h and 20,000 m3/h. The system is engineered to match your process specifications, including liquid flow rate, outlet emission standard, and operational temperature.
