Abstract
DOS and NaCl aerosol particles with geometric mean diameter of $0.1{\sim}3.0{\mu}m$ geometric standard deviation of $1.1{\sim}1.8$ and total number concentration of $450{\sim}400$ $particles/cm^3$ were used to determine collection efficiencies of a duct-type wet scrubber with respect to particle size. The tested operating variables included air velocity and water injection rate. It was shown from the experimental results that the collection efficiencies increased with increasing water injection rate and decreasing air velocity. It was also seen that the collection efficiency of the Duct-type wet scrubber is mainly governed by the mechanism of inertial impaction.
