Abstract:

A plurality of jointly assembled standardized conduction tube segments; one end of which is in communication with the emissions conduit collector means which collector being attached to the plant emissions exhaust orifice or flue stack means and the opposite end of said conduction tube assembly serving as a clean air exhaust orifice. Each conduction tube segment wall externally supports a pressure relief means and said tube internally supports, near its intake end, an axial flow vacuum fan immediately aft of which is supported a helical spiral of high pressure liquid multi-spray nozzles which said liquid is in contact with vacuumed pollutant emissions. The said pollutants (particulates and liquid soluble gasses) being extracted thereby said spray liquid encapsulation and subsequently deposited into conveyor channel thereunder sprays and which channel is in communication with bottom of conduction tube assembly.
