Abstract
The invention relates to an apparatus for scrubbing with water a continuous flow of charged gas, the apparatus including a scrubbing chamber; an inlet via which the scrubbing water is fed into the scrubbing chamber; a scrubbing throat for mixing the scrubbing water with the charged gas in the scrubbing chamber; a removal device for removing the scrubbing water and the collected particles; and a removal device for removing the continuous flow of at least partially scrubbed gas. According to the invention, the inlet for the scrubbing water is for feeding the scrubbing water into the scrubbing chamber while the water is not in the form of a spray, the scrubbing throat includes a bottom plate that is perpendicular to the continuous flow of charged gas, and that is provided with at least one longitudinal slot extended, at least on that side of the plate which is closer to the scrubbing chamber, by two walls forming a longitudinal adjutage, the longitudinal slot constituting an inlet via which the continuous flow of charged gas enters the scrubbing chamber, and the removal device for removing the scrubbing water and the collected particles include at least one overflow projecting from th…
