The mixing nozzle has a throat section, a diffuser section, a gas nozzle section, a first liquid suction port, a liquid nozzle section, a second liquid suction port, a baffle plate, and a jetting port. The first liquid suction port liquidly absorbs the solution in the water storage pool from a side of the gas nozzle section toward the gas nozzle tip. The liquid nozzle section extends to the downstream side of the gas nozzle section with intervening the first liquid suction port. The second liquid suction port liquidly absorbs the solution in the water storage pool from a side of the liquid nozzle section toward the liquid nozzle tip. The baffle plate is provided such that the mixed flow mixed in the diffuser section collides in front of a downstream end of the diffuser section, and divides and reverses the mixed flow.

A fractionation system for removing heavy hydrocarbons in a gas stream. A stripping section receives a predominantly liquid phase of the feed gas stream. A co-current contacting system receives a predominantly vapor phase of the feed gas stream. The co-current contacting system includes a compact contacting bundle disposed within a vessel and including a plurality of substantially parallel contacting units, each of the plurality of contacting units having a droplet generator, a mass transfer section, and a separation system. Each droplet generator generates droplets from a liquid disperses the droplets into a gas stream. Each mass transfer section provides a mixed, two-phase flow having a vapor phase and a liquid phase. Each separation system separates the vapor phase from the liquid phase such that the concentration of heavy hydrocarbons in the vapor phase is lower than in the liquid phase.

A dust collecting module of a desulfurizing apparatus for removing sulfur oxides is easily installed and facilitates the application of a high voltage to discharge electrodes. The dust collecting module includes an arrangement of discharge electrodes and dust collecting electrodes alternately disposed and spaced apart from each other, the discharge electrodes configured to be charged to a predetermined voltage for generating a corona discharge between the discharge electrodes and the dust collecting electrodes; a first setting beam having a plurality of lower slots into which the discharge electrodes are securely inserted; and a lower frame extending in a stacking direction of the discharge electrodes to support the discharge electrodes, wherein the predetermined voltage is applied to the discharge electrodes through the lower frame and the first setting beam. The dust collecting module may further include an insulating connecting member from which the lower frame is suspended.
