crubbing by liquid sprayingis one of the most effective processes used for removal of fine particles and soluble gas pollutants (such as SO2, HCl, HF) from the flue gas. The primary function of venturi scrubber, which represents the first stage of the wet flue gas cleaning processes, such as in waste incineration plants, is to capture fine particles as well as remove HCl, HF or SO2 as a result of the decrease in the flue gas temperature before entering the absorption column. In this paper, a newly developed four-branch O-element is proposed as a replacement for venturi scrubber. By means of this device, sulphur dioxide (SO2) removal efficiency and pressure loss and temperature drop were experimentally calculated. The dependence of these variables on liquid–gas ratio was monitored. The simulated flue gas was prepared by the combustion of the carbon disulphide solution in toluene (1:1 vol.) in the presence of the flame in the reactor. Such prepared flue gas with temperature around 150 °C was processed in the laboratory-designed O-element scrubber. Water was used as an absorbent liquid. The maximal efficiency of SO2 removal achieved by this process was up to 70 %, which is far better in comparison with the commonly used venturi scrubbers. The pressure drop of our proposed newly designed wet scrubber is similar to that of the commonly used venturi scrubbers; nevertheless, the influence of the amount of the liquid on pressure drop is not so significant. In parallel, a mathematical model describing the mass transfer, enthalpy balance and pH change of the absorbing solution was also developed. Enthalpy balance was calculated by numerical iteration to determine the unknown outlet liquid temperature. Mass transfer calculation was used for the determination of complete Henry constant from all the subsequent SO2 absorption reactions.
