Alongside its filter bag manufacturing, Micro-one Co., Ltd. designs and builds waste incinerators, flue gas treatment systems and power plant dust collection equipment on an EPC basis. Designs are checked with CFD flow analysis and 3D modeling, and every system can be fitted with Micro-one’s own DuraFill™ and CataFill™ filter bags.
We offer cost-effective consulting tailored to each customer and provide after-sales service once the plant is handed over.
A scrubber is a wet gas cleaning system that brings flue gas into contact with a scrubbing liquid to absorb and neutralize acid gases, water-soluble pollutants and dust. It removes acid gases such as sulfur oxides (SOx) and hydrogen chloride (HCl) very effectively and works with hot, humid gas, but the scrubbing water must be treated. Micro-one’s scrubbers are vertical packed towers in which an absorbent (chemical solution) sprayed from the top treats water-soluble pollutants and dust together.
How is a scrubber built?
Gas Inlet
The entry point where contaminated gas flows into the scrubber
Scrubbing Liquid Spray Section
Sprays water or a chemical solution into the gas stream
Packed Bed or Reaction Zone
Where gas and liquid meet to remove pollutants. Packing material increases the contact area and improves efficiency
Mist Eliminator and Outlet
Removes entrained droplets and residual substances before the treated gas is released
Pollutant Discharge Unit
Collects and drains captured dust and spent liquid
Multi-Pollutant Treatment
Treats gases and dust at the same time
High Temperature and Humidity Tolerance
Handles hot, humid gas
High-Efficiency Gas Treatment
Achieves high removal efficiency (especially for SOx and other acid gases)
Where are scrubbers used?
Power Plants
SOx removal at coal- and oil-fired power plants
Industrial Processes
Removal of acid gases (HCl, HF) and dust at chemical plants, cement plants, steel mills and more
Marine Industry
Exhaust gas cleaning systems (EGCS) that help ships meet IMO SOx limits
Waste Incineration Plants
Final removal of remaining acid gases after the baghouse
Frequently Asked Questions
Scrubber vs. SDR (semi-dry reactor): what is the difference?
A scrubber washes the gas with liquid, so it removes acid gases very efficiently and handles humid gas, but it produces wastewater. An SDR evaporates the slurry water, so no wastewater remains.
Where is the scrubber placed in an incinerator?
Usually after the baghouse, as the final stage for remaining acid gases. Removing dust first reduces contamination of the scrubbing liquid and the wastewater load.
