The Venturi scrubbers are often installed to remove fine particles and mist from volatile, hazardous or corrosive gas streams, or gas streams containing solid materials that are difficult to handle. Venturi Scrubber incorporates features calculated to maximize collection efficiency while minimizing operating and maintenance costs. They range from a non-plugging, trouble-free method of introducing scrubbing liquid and a simple, easily-adjusted throat for optimizing efficiency, to a flooded elbow arrangement that collects agglomerated particulate while providing an abrasion-resistant barrier to deter scrubber wear.

Removal efficiency is related to the characteristics of the contaminant and the pressure drop induced across the throat section of the venturi. The Venturi Scrubber offers more advantages in separating and recovering liquid mists and ultra-fine particulate than other gas cleaning methods.
