What is Evaporative Gas Cooling?STM Atomizing Systems
‣ When a cold liquid is sprayed into a hot gas, the following phenomenon occurs: • The liquid droplets absorb heat from the hot gas, thus raising the temperature of the
droplets • As the droplets are heated, they begin to vaporize, and decrease in diameter until they
are totally vaporized • The evaporated liquid (steam) then continues to absorb heat from the gas until
equilibrium is reached (gas and steam temperature is equal)
‣ This transformation of the cold liquid droplets into steam is accomplished by absorbing heat from the hot gas, thus reducing its temperature.
‣ Although a portion of the heat given up by the hot gas is used to heat the water droplets and the vaporized steam, the largest portion of the heat removed from the gas is utilized to provide the “latent heat of vaporization” required to vaporize (evaporate) the droplets.
‣ This phenomenon is generally known as Evaporative Gas Cooling71
Evaporative Gas Cooling ProcessesSTM Atomizing Systems
‣ Evaporative gas cooling, also known as EGC, is utilized to “condition” flue gas from a combustion process so that it is most effectively treated in downstream dust collection systems.
‣ Examples of process exhausts which require gas cooling include: • Dryers in chemical and pharmaceutical processes • Furnaces in steel and non-ferrous metals • Power generation for humidification of the gases upstream of an ESP • Power generation for optimization of a DSIACI system • Waste incinerators (Municipal and Hazardous) • Kilns in the cement and lime industry
‣ Gas conditioning is used when the gas needs to be cooled to a temperature/moisture condition that is safely above the dew-point of the gas, in order to avoid moisture condensation.
72
EGC Benefits Upstream an ESPSTM Atomizing Systems
‣ Evaporative gas conditioning is used upstream of an Electrostatic precipitator to improve performance.
‣ EGC increases performance of an ESP: • Reduces particle resistivity
- Increasing current density • Decreases gas viscosity
- Increasing migration velocity • Increases dust cohesivity
- Reducing rapping re-entrainment • Decreases gas volume
- Increasing treatment time73
EGC Benefits Upstream an ESPSTM Atomizing Systems
‣ Evaporative gas conditioning is used upstream a fabric filter or baghouse.
‣ EGC increases performance of a fabric filter: • Reduces gas temperature
- Avoiding damage to the bags - Permitting the use of a lower temperature rated bag
• Increases dust cohesivity - Improves the filter cake properties - Reduces filter drag - Reduces filter penetration (bleed-through)
• Decreases gas volume - Lowers the air-to-cloth ratio (filtration velocity)
74
EGC Benefits Upstream an ESPSTM Atomizing Systems
‣ There are numerous applications where EGC can benefit a particular process other than just particulate collection.
‣ Processes that benefit from EGC: • Dioxin/Furan control
- Rapidly quenching the gases prevents formation of dioxins and furans - Reduces the amount of or eliminates the need for activated carbon injection
• Acid gas control - Approach to saturation increases the efficiency of calcium-based dry sorbent injection for
SO2 and HCl - Reducing the temperature increases the efficiency of calcium-based dry sorbent injection
for SO3 removal • Mercury and heavy metals
- Reducing the temperature increases the efficiency of activated carbon
‣ Often a slurry system can be replaced by a dry sorbent injection system with EGC assist.

OPTIVAP NOZZLE DESIGNThe OptiVap nozzle is a dual fluid atomizer that uses compressed air or nitrogen
to atomize a liquid, typically water, to cool or to inject a chemical into hot gas stream.
‣ Fine, uniform droplets under all conditions, even when water pressure exceeds air pressure (cannot be overdriven)
‣ Lowest energy consumption of any nozzle on the market ‣ Used for high velocity gas streams with short residence time requirements ‣ Minimal maintenance needs, optimal for harsh duty environments
