Abstract
A gas generator, for example a blast furnace, is isolated from an exhaust gas treatment system by means of an isolation valve characterized by a valve housing which may be permanently installed in the gas delivery conduit. The housing has a laterally offset recess which receives the valve member when in the open position and the valve member may define a liquid receiving vessel in the interest of establishing a liquid barrier between the interior of the conduit and the valve seat when the valve is closed. The valve is preferably hydraulically operated and the actuator is mounted so as to minimize loading on the control shaft bearings.
