Application of Packed Scrubbers for Air Emissions Control in Municipal Wastewtewater Treatment Plants
نویسنده
چکیده
Tkc process air emissions from municipal wastewater treatmentplants primarily consist of hydrogen sulj?degas, along with other oigano-sulfilr compounds, and some trace quantities of volatile oiganic compounds (VOC). Various Federal and/or State Uegulativtzs require monitoring, and control of these em&sions dooutn to some specijied levels. At the Deer Island Wastewater Treatment Plant of the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority (MWRA), air containing h-vdrogen sulfide is collected and treated in several emission control systems. 1;bese systems consist of wet scrubbers which

متن کاملAir Treatment Techniques for Abatement of Emissions from Intensive Livestock Production
Intensive livestock production is connected with a number of environmental effects, including emissions of ammonia (NH3), greenhouse gases (CH4 and N2O), odour, and particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5). Possible strategies for emission reduction include feed management, adaptation of housing design, and, in case of mechanically ventilated animal houses, the application of end-of-pipe air treatme...
متن کاملEstimation of gas emission released from a municipal solid waste landfill site through a modeling approach: A case study, Sanandaj, Iran
Sanitary landfill is the common strategy for municipal solid waste management in developing countries. Anaerobic decomposition of disposed wastes in landfill under favorable conditions will lead to the landfill gas (LFG) emissions, considering as emerging air pollutants. The emission of greenhouse gases, including methane, resulting from municipal solid waste disposal and treatment processes ar...

Background: Different packing materials are used in wet scrubbers that each one has its own advantages and limitations. Common ceramic packing materials have high removal efficiency but they are heavy, fragile and high head loss along the bed. Finding a suitable replacement for these materials has always been concerned by researchers. The objective of the present study was to compare the ...
