An air purification and recirculation system positioned within an animal rearing/sheltering facility. The system draws untreated air into an elongated air treatment apparatus having a dust scrubbing section, an ammonia scrubbing section, and acid scrubbing section, configured so that the treatment sections are positioned in series. At the end of the air treatment process, the treated air is exhausted back into the animal rearing facility so that the air is circulated within the facility. Acid and water used during the air treatment process are continuously recycled and directed back through the scrubbers in the air treatment apparatus.

Proposed is a system for capturing carbon dioxide and sulfur oxide for ships that can capture carbon dioxide in flue gas using a basic alkaline mixture and use the captured carbon dioxide to capture sulfur oxides in the flue gas. The carbon dioxide and sulfur oxide capture system for ships uses sodium carbonate or sodium hydrogen carbonate prepared from the captured carbon dioxide as a desulfurization agent to capture sulfur oxides in the flue gas discharged from ships, thereby simultaneously producing carbon dioxide and sulfur oxides in one system.

The invention relates to a low-cost and high-efficiency absorption-desorption decoupling method for contaminant-CO.sub.2 synergistic capture. According to the method, an optimization model of absorption-desorption decoupling control for contaminant-CO.sub.2 synergistic capture under different working conditions is built, the optimization objective is to obtain high-purity liquid contaminants and CO.sub.2 at low cost and efficiently, and an adaptive penalty function is constructed to transform a solution of a constrained optimization problem into that of an unconstrained optimization problem, thereby controlling parameters in a real-time, precise and stable manner. Moreover, supported by means of flue gas pre-scrubbing and cooling, multi-stage intercooling and column-top demisting, the method of the present invention achieves efficient capture of contaminants and CO.sub.2. According to the invention, the absorption process is decoupled from the desorption process, and the coordinated control of temperature-pH-liquid-gas ratio and rich liquid flow-desorption temperature in all cycles is carried out to realize the synergistic capture-regeneration-concentration of contaminants and CO.sub.2 with high efficiency and low energy consumption, thereby reducing the high cost of the traditional method where a flue gas cleaning system and a carbon capture system operate separately.

A packing section intended to be installed in a casing so as to form a gas/liquid separation column comprises a block for treating a fluid that has a generally cylindrical shape extending along a longitudinal direction, the treatment block being formed by a stack of plates for treating the fluid along the longitudinal direction, the treatment block having a first disc-shaped face and a second disc-shaped face that each extend in planes parallel to one another, the treatment block having an external face extending over the perimeter of said treatment block between the first disc-shaped face and the second disc-shaped face, the packing section having at least one element for holding the treatment block that extends at least partially around the external face of the treatment block, the holding element having a portion for holding the treatment plates of the treatment block in position.

A device, such as a wet scrubber for cleaning a stream of gas by removing gaseous, liquid and solid impurities, has a gas inlet and a gas outlet. At the gas inlet there is a first structured packing. A spray-scrubber area with atomizing nozzles is provided above the first structured packing. A first demister is provided for separating larger drops above the spray-scrubber area. A woven fabric is above the first demister, and spray nozzles are arranged around this woven fabric to spray washing liquid in the direction of the gas stream onto the surface of the woven fabric. A final demister is located above the woven fabric and has a demister rinsing apparatus. The device may be used to dispose of industrial waste gases encountered in the semiconductor industry, particularly for the disposal of waste gases stemming from CVD processes in microelectronics production.

An efficient ammonia desulphurization and oxidation apparatus includes a desulphurization tower, where spray layers in multiple stages and a tower reactor are sequentially arranged in the desulphurization tower; a first gas-liquid distribution plate, a second gas-liquid distribution plate, and a third gas-liquid distribution plate are sequentially arranged in the tower reactor; an ammonia distribution zone is formed between the first and second gas-liquid distribution plates, and an ammonia water distributor is further arranged between the first gas-liquid distribution plate and the second gas-liquid distribution plate in the ammonia distribution zone; an absorption zone is formed between the second and third gas-liquid distribution plates; an oxidation zone is formed between the third gas-liquid distribution plate and a bottom of the tower; in the oxidation zone, oxidizing air distributors in multiple stages are arranged at a lower side of the third gas-liquid plate.

Mass transfer packing with a minimal surface or a triply periodic minimal surface which enables significantly improved performance for separation and mixing applications particularly with respect to distillation, liquid-liquid contacting, and heat exchange applications.

A method that can efficiently dissolve a water-soluble component contained in a gas with smaller energy consumption is provided. A mist is produced from a liquid. The mist and carrier air is mixed to produce mist-containing air. A solution gas and the mist-containing air are supplied to a static mixer. The solution gas and the mist-containing are mixed by using the static mixer. The liquid mist is brought in contact with the solution gas to dissolve a water-soluble component that is contained in the solution gas into the liquid mist. The liquid mist that contains the water-soluble component dissolved aggregates and produces a solution that contains the water-soluble component dissolved.

A long-effect self-cleaning negative-pressure ejector at least comprises a suction chamber, a jet pipe and a flushing member. A side wall of the suction chamber has at least one suction port for communicating with a first fluid pipeline. An exit port of the jet pipe is disposed in the suction chamber and ejects a second fluid so that a negative pressure is generated in the suction chamber, a first fluid in the first fluid pipeline obliquely enters the suction chamber, and a first included angle is between a direction in which the first fluid being sucked into the suction chamber and an ejection direction of the second fluid. The flushing member optionally provides a third fluid to flush the suction chamber and/or the first fluid pipeline. At least one air jet nozzle is disposed on the first fluid pipeline to inject gas into the first fluid pipeline.

An acid gas absorber includes a co-current flue gas-lean solution section and a packed counter-current flue gas-liquid phase section useful in a method of capturing an acid gas from flue gas in a more efficient and cost effective manner.
