Abstract
The effect of three different arrangements of two water manifold injection systems on the performance of a venturi scrubber was studied. Velocities ranging from 23.4 to 49.7 m/sec were used with aerosol diameters of 0.8, 1.6, 2.9 and 5.0 microns. Scrubber efficiency was found to be larger than predicted theoretically with the larger particles, and smaller than predicted theoretically with the smaller particles. The spacing, diameter, and location of the injection orifices were found to have an effect on scrubber efficiency.
