Are your exhaust air streams contaminated with moist and sticky dust? Our venturi scrubbers, as wet scrubbers, provide safe and efficient cleaning.
Industrial Dedusting

Venturi Scrubbers

As an expert in dedusting technology, Riedel Filtertechnik has been a supplier of venturi scrubbers for industrial exhaust air purification for decades. Wet scrubbers are used whenever dealing with moist and sticky dust that makes dry filtration difficult or impossible. With a reasonable energy input, our venturi scrubbers achieve clean gas dust concentrations of less than 5.0 mg/m³. Wet scrubbers can play an essential role within central dust collection systems and are thus a crucial component of industrial exhaust air purification.

Advantages & Features

Dust separation using Venturi scrubbers

Venturi scrubbers are a proven technology for industrial dust removal from moist exhaust streams. With decades of experience, we excel in the technical design and manufacturing of wet scrubbers, optimizing them with industry-specific knowledge for our customers. See for yourself the benefits of a venturi scrubber from Riedel Filtertechnik for your application:

Effective Dust Separation

Reliable removal of moist and sticky dusts through the use of single or multi-stage venturi scrubbers. No risk of condensation or clogging as with dry filtration solutions. Achieve clean gas dust concentrations of < 5.0 mg/m³.
 

Minimized Explosion Risk

Constructive and electrical explosion and fire protection to minimize risks. Execution according to ATEX guidelines possible.

Learn more about preventing dust explosions.

Regulatory-Compliant Air Emissions Control

Compliance with legal limits for dust in the production environment and surrounding areas. Minimization of the risk of complaints and fines from authorities, as well as the avoidance of production restrictions.
 

Sustainability

Cleaning of the washing liquid through belt filters or time-controlled drain valves, enabling the recirculation of the washing liquid and optimized water consumption through automatic dosing.

Custom-Designed Solutions

Design of the venturi scrubber based on customer-specific production conditions, such as dust load, volume flow, and industry-specific requirements.
 

User-Friendliness

Easy operation of the system through an intuitive HMI control. Automatic dosing and partial draining. Capability to integrate into existing IT infrastructure.
 

Rely on Riedel Filtertechnik GmbH and benefit from our years of experience, innovative technologies, and comprehensive service in industrial dust removal through dry filtration and wet scrubbers.

Functionality & Application

Use of Venturi Scrubbers for Exhaust Air Cleaning

A venturi scrubber operates by channeling dust-laden air, also known as raw gas, through a specially designed pipe system. Within the venturi tube, the gas stream is accelerated while a washing liquid is injected into the gas flow. The high speed of the gas causes the liquid to be finely atomized, mixing with the dust particles. The dust-binding washing liquid is then collected in a separator. The washing liquid is cleaned through automatic belt filters or time-controlled drain valves that automatically release a portion during operation. The cleaned gas, also referred to as clean gas, exits the venturi scrubber, also known as a wet scrubber. Venturi scrubbers are particularly effective at removing moist, sticky, and/or combustible dust particles, such as those encountered in tobacco processing and sugar production, and can also partially remove gaseous pollutants.
 

Venturi Scrubbers as Core Elements of Central Dust Collection Systems

As a classic dust collection technology for moist, sticky, and combustible dust, wet scrubbers, particularly venturi scrubbers, often serve as the core element of a central dust collection system. Through extraction systems, dust-laden air is captured at various emission points and conveyed via pipelines under negative pressure to the venturi scrubber. In this way, the dust-absorbing washing liquid can be centrally collected, treated, and discharged. The cleaned exhaust air is also controlled and discharged into the environment.
