Wet scrubbers are air pollution control devices that remove harmful particles and gases from industrial exhaust streams. They work by passing the polluted air through a liquid, usually water, which captures and dissolves contaminants. This process helps reduce emissions and improve air quality. These systems are commonly used in various industries, including power generation, chemical manufacturing, and waste management. Wet scrubbers can effectively remove pollutants like sulfur dioxide and particulate matter, making them an essential tool for meeting environmental regulations and protecting public health.
