Wet dust scrubbers effectively eliminate the risk of a dust explosion within the collector by mitigating and removing many of the factors required for an explosion. Using a scrubbing liquid, wet scrubbers can reduce heat sources, stop clouds of dust from forming, and eliminate dust dispersion by aggregating dust particles within water droplets.

When it comes to air quality, it’s important to choose the best air pollution collection system for your specific application. Choosing the right system can mean the difference between a safe, productive work environment, and a plant shutdown.

With high collection efficiencies and several operational benefits such as minimizing the risk of a dust explosion, wet scrubbers are a great choice for industrial air quality control. However, certain conditions are more appropriate for a scrubber than others.
