Quenching Flue Gas
Industry: Steel Application: Quenching Flue Gas Product Descriptions: 1 ½” SpiralAir 2301-B-10 Situation: A BETE customer was using lake water to quench exiting hot flue gas. The gas flows at 40,000 SCFM (64,380 Nm 3 /hr) and starts at 950°F (510°C. The goal is to cool the flue gas to 650°F (343°C) through evaporative cooling. Their current process uses five Delavan SwirlAir nozzles that flow 20 gpm (76 L/min) each. The operating conditions fo
