At Euro-Matic, we supply scrubber balls used in fluidised bed scrubber systems that serve as high-performance packing materials. These hollow plastic balls play a vital role in reducing strong odours often produced in food processing and various industrial production processes. When placed inside a scrubber, the balls enter a fluidising state, caused by rising gas flow. This continuous movement maximizes the contact between the gas and liquid phases, leading to significantly improved scrubbing efficiency and odour removal.
The fluidising action of these scrubber balls creates intense turbulence. This turbulence increases mass transfer rates, which means the system can more effectively remove odorous gases and airborne contaminants. This process is far superior to traditional fixed packing materials, which often restrict gas flow and reduce overall system effectiveness.
One major benefit of using scrubber balls used in fluidised bed scrubber systems is the reduction in bulk height inside the scrubber. Lower bulk height translates to less packing material, which reduces operating costs and system weight. Additionally, scrubber balls help prevent clogging caused by dust and solid particles. Unlike fixed packing that can easily become blocked, these balls allow dust to separate more efficiently, ensuring smooth and continuous operation without frequent maintenance or downtime.
Furthermore, these scrubber balls are simple to install and maintain. They can be retrofitted into existing scrubber units to increase capacity and improve performance without costly system modifications or extensive downtime. Euro-Matic stocks a wide range of sizes in our UK warehouse, ready for fast delivery to meet your project deadlines and operational needs.
