Chlorine emergency gas scrubbers
VSS-Umwelttechnik employs both packed-bed columns as well as multistage venturi gas scrubbers as chlorine emergency gas scrubbers, legally stipulated for chlorine storerooms.The emergency gas scrubbers (see illustration) ensure the limit values of TA air (< 3 mg/m3) in the event of a hazardous incident.
Each emergency gas scrubber is calculated individually and thus tailored to fit local conditions. By means of a computer simulation program, a variety of possible accident scenarios caused by leaks are run through in order to be able to calculate the precise dimensions of the emergency gas scrubber. In this respect, the amount of chlorine, spaciousness, and the diameters of the valves and gas pipes are the decisive parameters.
