PROCESS AND DEVICE FOR PURIFYING FLUE GASES IN COMBUSTION PLANTS

摘要

1. A process for purifying flue gases in combustion plants, wherein substances contained in the flue gases are condensed by cooling on a cooling line and in part dissolve in the condensate, and wherein the flue gas and the condensate forming droplets are conducted counter-currently along the cooling line through several cooled sub-lines arranged in series in the direction of flow, characterized in that in the transition zone between the various cooled sub-lines the flue gas is accelerated to several times the flow rate prevailing in the sub-lines, and that the condensate is carried along dropwise by the flue gas stream accelerated in the transition zone and is atomised in the sub-lines.
