Focus Keyword: Scrubber Tower
Meta Description:
PRS Scrubber Tower removes acid mist and harmful gases from copper EW tankhouses, ensuring clean air and safer, corrosion-free operation.
1. Introduction
In every copper electrowinning plant, large volumes of acid mist and gas are produced during electrolysis. To keep the environment safe and compliant, these emissions must be efficiently captured and neutralized.
That's where the Scrubber Tower - also known as the acid mist scrubber - comes in.
PRS designs and supplies high-performance scrubber towers that effectively remove acid mist and fumes, protecting both equipment and operators.
2. Working Principle
The PRS Scrubber Tower operates on a wet scrubbing principle. Exhaust gas from the Acid Mist Hood enters the tower and passes through multiple filtration layers:
• Spray Zone: Neutralizing liquid (usually alkaline) reacts with acidic mist.
• Packing Layer: Increases contact area for efficient absorption.
• Mist Eliminator: Captures fine droplets before clean air exits.
This process removes more than 95% of sulfuric acid mist and other corrosive vapors.
3. Advantages of PRS Scrubber Towers
• High Efficiency: Up to 99% acid mist removal.
• Durable Materials: Built with FRP or PP for maximum corrosion resistance.
• Easy Maintenance: Modular design and quick-access panels.
• Energy Saving: Optimized fan and liquid circulation system.
• Customizable: Designed for different tankhouse layouts and capacities.
4. Integration with the EW System
PRS scrubber towers are fully integrated with Acid Mist Hoods and exhaust ducts in the copper EW tankhouse. The combination ensures clean air, extended equipment life, and compliance with environmental regulations.
5. Conclusion
A scrubber tower is more than environmental equipment - it's a vital part of every copper EW tankhouse ventilation system.
With PRS's proven engineering and turnkey EPC service, your plant operates cleanly, safely, and efficiently - today and for years to come.
