In a wet scrubber, the dirty gas stream is brought into contact with a scrubbing liquid via a spraying mechanism. The scrubbing liquid reacts with the polluted particles to neutralize their harmful effect.

? In wet scrubbers, flue gases are cooled hence, smaller overall equipment size.

? They can remove both particles & gases.

? They can neutralize corrosive gases.
