Preferred Label : emission control equipment;
Detailed label : emission control equipment in atmospheric chemistry;
IUPAC definition : air pollution control equipment which either converts the pollutant chemically to
a non-polluting substance or collects the pollutant by some means including gravity
settling chambers, inertial separators, cyclonic separators, filters, electrical precipitators,
scrubbers, (spray towers, jet scrubbers, Venturi scrubbers, inertial scrubbers, mechanical
scrubbers and packed scrubbers). Certain gases and odoriferous compounds are controlled
by combustion, absorption (spray chambers, mechanical contactors, bubble cap or sieve
plate contactors and packed towers) and adsorption units (packed beds or fluidized
beds).;
