Abstract

Some industrial or fabrication processes generate effluent gas streams that require scrubbing. Scrubbing may include the use of one or more gases to abate the effluents for safer release into the environment. Systems and methods described herein provide a liquid-enclosed reaction chamber where an extended reaction zone or more than one reaction zone is formed. By having an extended reaction zone or more than one reaction zone, the effluent gas stream and the products of upstream reaction zones can be more completely abated. The reaction zones are formed by adding one or more gas ports into the reaction chamber downstream of a main burner nozzle.
