Abstract
A drop trap for a gas scrubbing plant, the trap having a plurality of parallel spaced apart corrugated plates forming channels through which gas flows and baffles at the downstream side of the corrugated plates to impart a downward velocity to liquid particles entrained in the gas flowing through the channels. Further baffles may be located at the upstream side of the corrugated plates to deflect the liquid particles downwardly to flow over the corrugated plates as they are separated from the gas as it passes through the channels. A method is also disclosed of rinsing the corrugated plates by intermittently spraying a predetermined quantity of liquid over the upstream side of the plates.
