Abstract
Gas absorption and pressure drop studies were carried out in a wetted butterfly valve constituting a novel scrubber system. The exceptional suitability of this device is demonstrated by its flexibility to adjust to large variations in both gas and liquid flow rates. An experimental setup with a maximum airflow rate of 400 cfm and water flow rate of 4 gpm was constructed to provide the desired testing conditions. Gas absorption data were obtained with air-ammonia and water system. The equilibrium efficiencies of 100 percent were obtained for a pressure drop greater than 20 in. of water.
