Hydro-Shear Scrubber>

The MELBOURNE HYDRO-SHEAR SCRUBBER is a liquid activated device for scrubbing dust and vapours from air prior to air being discharged to atmosphere. The unit generates vacuum and air flow, is full bore and inline.
The Melbourne Hydro-Shear Scrubber will also operate using salt or grey water, assisting greatly in water conservation
.

APPLICATIONS

  - Aluminium Smelters, recovering sodium fluoride
  - Power Stations, removing gasses from smoke stacks
  - Food Industry, recovering water from cooking potatoes
  - Paper Manufacturing, recovering water

And anywhere where gases or solids are discharged into the atmosphere.

How It Works (see diagram below)
Fluid under pressure is diverted externally through pipes as shown and supplied through three tangential ports. Fluid is fed into the manifold where it exists into the scrubber main chamber via a ring of holes drilled at different compound angles to the bore at port 'A'. This forms a clockwise vortex.
At the same time fluid under pressure is fed into a manifold where it exists into the scrubber main chamber via a ring of holes drilled at different compound angles to the bore at port 'B'. This forms an anti-clockwise vortex.
At the same time this is repeated at port 'C'. this forms a clockwise vortex.

The forward velocity of the air in the HYDRO-SHEAR SCRUBBER is greater than the water velocity, and the contaminated air goes through two hydro-shear zones.The area after the third nozzle is a fine mist.
Fluids recycled from settling ponds.
