An apparatus and method for wet cleaning a gas stream has a housing with a gas inlet and a gas outlet, wherein, in the housing, there is at least a first washing segment that serves to clean the gas stream with a washing liquid and that is arranged in the flow path of the gas stream. Inside the housing of the apparatus, there is at least one fan that regulates air pressure along the flow path of the gas stream. A bypass channel for bypassing the flow path through the at least one washing segment as well as a regulator that is arranged in the bypass and that serves to discharge the gas stream being conveyed via the bypass channel are arranged inside the housing.

A method for processing a chemical stream includes contacting a feed stream with a catalyst in an upstream reactor section of a reactor having the upstream reactor section and a downstream reactor section, passing an intermediate product stream to the downstream reactor section, and introducing a riser quench fluid into the downstream reactor section, upstream reactor section, or transition section and into contact with the intermediate product stream and the catalyst to slow or stop the reaction. The method includes separating at least a portion of the catalyst from the product stream, passing the product stream to a product processing section, cooling the product stream, and separating a portion of the riser quench fluid from the product stream. The riser quench fluid separated from the product stream may be recycled back to the downstream reactor section, upstream reactor section, or transition section as the riser quench fluid.

Apparatus and methods are disclosed. The apparatus comprises: an abatement chamber of an abatement apparatus which treats an effluent stream from a semiconductor processing tool to provide a combusted effluent stream having effluent particles; and a first atomiser located downstream of the abatement chamber, the first atomiser being configured to produce droplets having a droplet size based on a particle size of the effluent particles to be removed from the combusted effluent stream. In this way, the atomizer may produce droplets which combine with or adhere to the effluent particles which assists in the removal of the effluent particles from the combusted effluent stream.

A wet scrubber at least comprises a treatment tank, a jet pipe, a gas-liquid separation component, and a spray component. The treatment tank is used to contain a cleaning solution. The jet pipe is disposed in the treatment tank, by injecting the cleaning solution to suck in an exhaust gas, and mixing the cleaning solution with the exhaust gas, and directly injecting into the cleaning solution contained in the treatment tank, thereby forming a plurality of microbubbles in the cleaning solution to dissolve the exhaust gas and capture solid particles in the exhaust gas. The gas-liquid separation component is used to filter and block water mist raised in the cleaning solution. The spray component is used to prevent the solid particles from clogging the gas-liquid separation component.

A process for recovering catalyst from a fluidized catalytic reactor effluent is disclosed comprising reacting a reactant stream by contact with a stream of fluidized catalyst to provide a vaporous reactor effluent stream comprising catalyst and products. The vaporous reactor effluent stream is contacted with a liquid coolant stream to cool it and transfer the catalyst into the liquid coolant stream. A catalyst lean vaporous reactor effluent stream is separated from a catalyst rich liquid coolant stream. A return catalyst stream is separated from the catalyst rich liquid coolant stream to provide a catalyst lean liquid coolant stream, and the return catalyst stream is transported back to said reacting step.

Improved methods and systems are provided for the on-board removal of sulfur dioxide generated by a marine vessel. The method includes spraying an alkaline fluid into the flue gas to produce a saturated flue gas stream containing the alkaline fluid; and flowing the saturated flue gas stream containing the alkaline fluid through a venturi to cause the particulates in the flue gas to impact the alkaline fluid and react at least a portion of the sulfur dioxide with the alkaline fluid.
