How Mist Eliminators & Moisture Extractors Work
Since the late 1940s, mist eliminators have been used to filter & collect fine mist droplets of process gas streams. They are used to abate the emissions from industrial chemical processes and meet industrial air pollution regulations, such as the Chrome MACT Standard.
Mist Eliminators work by utilizing mesh or plate surfaces to separate the mist droplets from gas streams through impingement. The large surface area coupled with a small volume allows for the collection of liquid without substantially impeding the flow of gas.
Some contaminates typically removed via mist eliminators/dry scrubbers include chromic acid mists, alkaline mists, electrolytic nickel mists, sulfuric acid mists, phosphoric mists, chromic anodizing, sulfuric acid from battery charging operations, alkaline cleaning and many more. Mist eliminators can also be used as a post control acid fog eliminator on wet scrubbers.
