Abstract

The present invention relates to a portable web scrubber unit for a dirty gas stream having particulate matter. The dirty gas stream is drawn into the wet scrubber and is forced down through an inner channel deep into a water reservoir. The water acts as a separator, and a majority of the particulates fall to the bottom of the unit immediately. Those particles that manage to escape the first stage of cleansing, are forced through thick curtains of water, and are deflected by a series of baffles through a series of channels into the water turbulence, separating the remaining particulates from the gas stream. The moist clean gas stream is drawn up through the unit by an internally fitted blower, passes through a stainless steel mist eliminator, where the moisture is removed from the clean air and is discharged from the scrubber. The particulates which have settled to the bottom of the water reservoir are removed through a drain valve.
