Advanced Analyzers for Scrubber Control
In an era where industrial processes are becoming increasingly sophisticated and environmental regulations more stringent than ever, high-end analyzers offer a comprehensive solution for the simultaneous measurement and monitoring of various gas concentrations. At Ravebo, we employ multiple technologies, including infrared spectroscopy and flame ionization detectors, to quantify chemical compounds at the molecular level.
FTIR Analyzer — Multi-Component Measurement
The FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared) analyzer is distinguished by its capability to measure multiple components simultaneously without compromising accuracy. Unlike traditional methods that typically analyze single substances, an FTIR analyzer can detect hundreds of different chemical compounds in a single measurement. This feature not only enhances the device’s efficiency but also makes it cost-effective, as it requires less equipment and analysis time. FTIR analysis is utilized across various industries to measure a wide range of gas components and chemicals.
Industrial Emission Control
Industrial activities, such as combustion processes and production in the petrochemical sector, frequently result in harmful emissions. FTIR analyzers are employed to accurately monitor and manage these emissions. We provide an FTIR analyzer as a comprehensive system for Continuous Emission Monitoring (CEMS). Our CEMS are QAL1 certified, enabling companies to meet environmental regulations and reduce their ecological footprint. Additionally, we can offer a QAL1-certified FTIR system for periodic measurements.
Chemical Process Control
In scrubber systems, FTIR analysis plays a crucial role in optimizing processes by continuously monitoring various gas components. By measuring gas concentrations both before and after the scrubber, it is possible to assess the efficiency of different techniques or the use of various additives. The analyzer quickly detects changes in gas composition, providing the scrubber’s PLC with immediate insights into the effects on the process. Such real-time data allows for precise efficiency assessments and reduces the consumption of dosing agents in the absorption liquid.
Common Gas Components Detectable by FTIR
One of the primary advantages of an FTIR analyzer is its ability to measure a wide variety of gas components in real time. Below are several commonly encountered examples:
- Carbon dioxide (CO₂): A prevalent greenhouse gas found in emissions.
- Carbon monoxide (CO): A toxic gas often released during incomplete combustion.
- Nitrogen oxides (NOx): Common emission gases originating from traffic and industrial combustion.
- Sulfur oxides (SOx): Contribute to air pollution, especially when sulfur-containing fuels or raw materials are used.
- Hydrogen chloride (HCl): Present in the chemical industry, released during processes like galvanization or electrolysis.
- Hydrogen fluoride (HF): Emitted during waste incineration or ceramics firing processes.
- Ammonia (NH₃): Known as an emission gas from pyrolysis processes.
- Nitrous oxide (N₂O): Recognized as a potent greenhouse gas.
- Volatile organic compounds (VOCs): Significant contributors to air pollution and a major concern in the oil and gas industry.
FID Analyzer — Reliable Monitoring of Organic Compounds
A Flame Ionization Detector (FID) analyzer is widely used to measure organic compounds in gaseous form. Renowned for its exceptional sensitivity to volatile organic compounds (VOCs), the FID analyzer is critical for managing scrubber systems, where precise emission measurements and process monitoring are essential.
How the FID Analyzer Works
This analyzer detects organic substances via a flame ionization detector, enabling a comprehensive measurement of all components that generate ions and electrons in a hydrogen flame. During the combustion of hydrocarbons in the flame, CHO⁺ ions are produced. These ions are collected on a collector plate, and the resulting current indicates the concentration of carbon atoms. Due to its high sensitivity and accuracy, the FID analyzer is considered the standard for determining Total Organic Carbon (TOC) in emissions.
Key Applications of FID Analysis
FID analysis is employed to monitor the presence of organic compounds within a gas stream and is most commonly used for assessing emission standards. However, it also plays a pivotal role in various stages of production processes, enhancing overall process control. Scrubbers fitted with FID analyzers typically use a non-polar liquid to remove Total Organic Carbon (TOC). By measuring gas concentrations both before and after the scrubber, the efficiency of different non-polar absorbent liquids can be evaluated. Through this process, companies can ensure compliance with environmental regulations and maintain better operational control over their industrial emissions.

Gas Scrubbers: Essential Solutions for Cleaner Air
Gas scrubbers are advanced air pollution control devices designed to remove harmful gases and particulates from industrial exhaust streams. They play a critical role in ensuring compliance with environmental regulations, improving air quality, and protecting both human health and the environment. Used across a wide range of industries, gas scrubbers are a versatile and effective solution for emission control.
In this article, we explore how gas scrubbers work, their types, applications, and the benefits they offer for modern industries.
What Are Gas Scrubbers?
Gas scrubbers are systems that clean industrial exhaust gases by removing pollutants such as acidic gases, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and particulate matter. They work by bringing the exhaust gases into contact with a liquid (often water or a chemical solution) or other materials that neutralize or capture the contaminants.
How Do Gas Scrubbers Work?
The basic operation of a gas scrubber involves three key steps:
- Contact Between Pollutants and Scrubbing Media: The exhaust gas is passed through a chamber where it comes into contact with a scrubbing liquid or solid medium.
- Neutralization or Absorption of Pollutants: Chemical reactions or absorption processes neutralize or trap the harmful components in the gas stream.
- Emission of Cleaned Air: The cleaned gas is released into the atmosphere, while the captured pollutants are collected for safe disposal or further treatment.
Types of Gas Scrubbers
Gas scrubbers are categorized based on their working mechanism and the type of pollutants they target. The most common types include:
- Wet Gas Scrubbers
- Use a liquid solution to capture and neutralize pollutants.
- Highly effective for removing acidic gases such as sulfur dioxide (SO₂) and hydrogen chloride (HCl).
- Effective against fine particulates, aerosols, and odorous compounds like ammonia (NH₃) and VOCs.
- Packed Bed Scrubbers
- Use a packed bed of materials to increase the surface area for gas-liquid interaction, improving the efficiency of pollutant removal.
- Spray Tower Scrubbers
- Disperse the scrubbing liquid into fine droplets, maximizing contact with the exhaust gases for effective cleaning.
Applications of Gas Scrubbers
Gas scrubbers are essential in industries that generate significant emissions. Common applications include:
- Chemical Manufacturing
- Neutralize acidic and hazardous gases released during chemical processes, ensuring worker safety and compliance.
