PROLITE CT-120/2 ELIMINATORS
For Horizontal Air Flows
The Prolite CT-120/2 dual stage horizontal mist eliminator represents a simple yet ultra efficient method of removing mist and airborn droplets from gas streams. Unlike mesh eliminators, The CT-120/2 is very compact, does not tend to plug up, can be easily cleaned, has a very wide operating velocity range and is designed to be simple to maintain.
The Prolite CT-120/2 embodies total airflow casing design with both eliminator banks internally separated AND independently baffled from each other. Inlet and outlet transitions are streamlined and NO baffles extend into the airstream to generate turbulence.
Fume Scrubbing: The CT-120/2 has often been used as a scrubber. Many so-called 'gas streams & fumes', particularly in the Surface Finishing Industry (e.g. Plating) consist mainly of ultra small acid/alkali droplets that can be captured by the CT-120/2. In the case of hard chrome fumes, Air Management emission levels have been easily met in the past. Removal of battery plant sulphuric acid fumes to under 0.6 mg/m3 has been achieved.
SPECIAL DESIGNS
The Prolite C-Clone-2 is a special design. It is nearly identical to the CT-120/2 except that both blade banks are entirely separated and each has its own wash-down system. Large C-Clone 2 eliminators have integrated vertical & horizontal schicanes and are provided with complete header controls, proportioning valves, ball valves, pressure gauges + gauge guards. The C-Clone-2 was designed to provide high efficiency capture of ultra fine, low micron dust emissions from cyclones by using water spraying and to replace costly and fire prone dry filter bag systems. It has also been successfully used for acid fumes containing a high proportion of solids, eg. Sulphuric acid descaling operations.
The LMITS
Low Micron Inertia Type Scrubber
The "LMITS" (1971 Invention by Prolite's Freeman Newton) is an extremely high efficiency mist eliminator. It was originally conceived as an alternative to conventional NaOH sprayed packed bed scrubbers for BRIGHT DIP (Nitric-Phosphoric) fumes where it was reported to be highly successful using plain water spraying. The LMITS has also replaced packed bed column scrubbers for heavy Assay fumes of HF, HNO3, H2SO4, HCI04 & Aqua-Regia.
METHOD OF OPERATION
The LMITS has 3 stages. In the first stage the capture mechanism is identical to the CT-120. Thereafter, any by-pass aerosols and submicron droplets drift onto a dense mesh coalescer. Due to the fine mesh of the coalescer, these droplets merge (principle of impact & contact) and coagulate into larger droplets. These larger droplets are intentionally re-entrained into the airstream but then are immediately recaptured by the last CT-120 eliminator blade bank. The first CT-120 eliminator stage serves also to protect the mesh against build-up and to evenly distribute the airstream onto the coalescer section. The S-LMITS has a CT-120/2 first stage, ie. two blade banks instead of the normal one. This is specifically for use as a Dry Scrubber for hard chrome and to meet today's demanding pollution requirements.
