Venturi Scrubbers Available in Integrated Packages

Bionomic Industries’ Series 7000/8000 venturi scrubbers are available in fully integrated pre-engineered packages, complete with recirculation pumps, piping networks, instrumentation and automated controls. Units destined for outdoor installation in cold climates also are available with a freeze-protection package.

According to the company, the scrubber packages enable meeting current PM 10 and PM 2.5 particulate emission standards, and offer trouble-free, low-maintenance operation. They also are available in a variety of materials to enable operation on extremely corrosive or erosive gas-contaminant streams. An advanced throat design and diverging section provide high collection efficiencies at reduced pressure drops. Throat sections are available for manual operation or can be equipped with an optional automatic adjustment mechanism for maximum flexibility in meeting the required collection efficiency and gas volume operating range, the company says.

Typical applications include high-efficiency collection of micron and sub-micron particulate emitted from dryers, calciners, power boilers, kilns, hazardous waste incinerators, process vessels, material-handling operations; particulate and mists generated from metal cleaning/descaling operations; iron briquetting and pelletizing emissions; cleanup of syngas tars and particulate from gasifiers; abrasive dusts including taconite ores, catalysts, metal carbides and oxides; and others.

NASF/AESF Foundation Research Project #122: Electrochemical Approaches to Treatment of PFAS in Plating Wastewater - 10th Quarterly Report

The NASF-AESF Foundation Research Board selected a project addressing the problem of PFAS and related chemicals in plating wastewater streams. This report covers the 10th quarter of work (April-June 2023). Here, we examine the effect of surface fluorination of Ti4O7 anodes on PFAS degradation performance in terms of energy performance as well as formation of chlorate and perchlorate when chloride is present in the solution. The full paper on this work can be accessed and printed at short.pfonline.com/NASF24Feb2.
NASF/AESF Foundation Research Project #122: Electrochemical Approaches to Treatment of PFAS in Plating Wastewater - 12th Quarterly Report

This NASF-AESF Foundation research project report covers the 12th quarter of project work (October – December 2023) at the University of Georgia. In our previous report, we described our work on performance and effect of surface fluorinated Ti4O7 anodes on PFAS degradation in reactive electrochemical membrane (REM) mode. This quarter, our experiments involved utilizing porous Ti4O7 plates serving both as anodes and membranes. Tests compared pristine and F-18.6 Ti4O7 anodes at current densities of 10 mA/cm2 and 40 mA/cm2. This 12th quarterly report discusses the mechanisms of the effects on EO performance by anode surface fluorination.
NASF/AESF Foundation Research Project #122: Electrochemical Approaches to Treatment of PFAS in Plating Wastewater - 6th Quarterly Report

The NASF-AESF Foundation Research Board has selected a project on addressing the problem of PFAS and related chemicals in plating wastewater streams, studying PFAS destruction via electrooxidation and electrocoagulation. This sixth quarter report covers the continued assessment of eight perfluoroalkyl acids PFAAs most commonly found in wastewaters, by electro-oxidation with a Magnéli phase Ti4O7 anode across a range of anodic potentials in solutions, exploring the reaction mechanisms. To summarize, the PFAAs start to exhibit degradation behavior when the anodic potential reaches a level where water oxidation occurs, suggesting that the hydroxyl free radicals generated via water oxidation play a role in PFAA degradation.
