Abstract

An apparatus and method for the treatment of gaseous effluents involving contact with a liquid may include a gas/liquid contact chamber which can receive a liquid in the lower part thereof and which is topped with a gas cover, wherein the chamber allows a gas to be treated. The chamber may also release residual gases following treatment involving contact with the liquid. The apparatus may also include a turbine that includes one or more stages which ensure improved contact between the gas and the liquid, the upper part of the turbine being equipped with an opening for drawing the gas situated in the gas cover above the liquid; and, preferably, a sensor for measuring the pH of the liquid.
