1. Introduction The scrubber is a Venturi scrubber designed to recirculate water to remove fumes from a gas stream. The primary design of the scrubber is the removal of fumes from a furnace installation however, it can be used for a wide variety of applications. Absorption of fumes is achieved in the spray venturi contact with scrubbing liquor recirculated by a sump pump from the column sump tank.
Normal Operation Note: Prior to operators carrying out any work on this unit, they must be advised of the hazardous nature of the chemicals involved and the emergency procedures to be followed in case of personal exposure. The sump should be filled with the appropriate scrubbing solution. The unit is designed for using fresh water, however caustic soda may be added through the level gauge to improve scrubbing performance (normally a 5% Caustic Soda solution).
Shut-Down If the scrubber is to be shut-down for inspection, cleaning, or for any other reason the sump should be flushed with fresh water several times to remove any chemical residues. The make-up water should be isolated and the sump drained through the drain valve. The pump should not be allowed to run dry.

Additional Notes – Following Site Inspection June 07. Usage of the scrubber is currently un-quantified so inspection and testing routines should be more frequent until appropriate routines are established. It was noted during the site inspection that large quantities of solids were being deposited in the scrubber and it may be solid deposition rather than chemical levels that determine flushing cycles.
