Apparatus for removing liquid droplets or fine particulate solids from a gas stream

摘要

An apparatus for removing liquid droplets or fine particulate solids from a gas stream is represented and described, having a plurality of separator plates (1) arranged parallel to each other, a flow channel (2) being formed between each two separator plates (1), each separator plate (1) having at least one roughly centrally provided wave crest (3) and two wave troughs (4) provided at the inlet side and outlet side edge, forming an inlet section (8) and an outlet section (9), and a baffle section (5) formed between the wave crest (3) and the wave troughs (4), and a main phase separation chamber (6) being formed on the wave crest (3) "outwards" opened opposite to the direction of flow of the gas. According to the invention, a high degree of separation with a low pressure drop and a low energy loss is achieved in that an inlet jet is formed in the inlet section (8) and the gas stream can be guided by means of the inlet jet onto the inlet-side area of the opposite baffle section (5). <IMAGE>
