Abstract
An apparatus for the processing and scrubbing of contaminated gases i.e., gases entrained with particulate matter, is presented. The apparatus comprises a primary dust removal unit which receives a descending gas pipeline originating from a generator or source of contaminated gases. This primary dust removal unit acts to precipitate the larger solid particles from the contaminated gas via gravity and/or inertia to define semi-scrubbed gas. A plurality of scrubbers are provided within the primary dust removal unit to form the forced scrubbing of the semi-scrubbed gases from the primary unit. Each of these scrubbers contain a series of bag filters which are traversed from bottom to top by the semi-scrubbed gases. The scrubbers also include means for monitoring the temperature of the gases at different points in their passage and means for cooling or heating the gases in order to maintain their temperature within predetermined operational limits.
