Problems solved by technology

Although current abatement systems allow for the removal of heat and / or one or more pollutants from a contaminated gas flow, many suffer from one or more drawbacks.
For example, current abatement systems may not be both large enough to abate a contaminated gas flow and be efficiently field erectable.
Moreover, for example, current abatement systems may not be easily transportable and / or easily field erectable.

first embodiment

In FIG. 1 through FIG. 15 various aspects of an abatement system 100 are shown. Referring initially to FIG. 1 through FIG. 4, it is illustrated that the abatement system 100 includes a support base 190 supporting a structure having a generally longitudinally extending and generally rectangular shape. The support base 190 includes a plurality of lifting lugs 191 around the periphery thereof that may be utilized in lifting and placing the abatement system 100 in a desired installation spot. The lifting lugs 191 may optionally be removed once the abatement system 100 is placed in a desired location.

The abatement system 100 also includes an air inlet opening 110 that defines an air inlet 111. The air inlet 111 generally defines the beginning of an abatement chamber that extends interiorly through a portion of abatement system 100 and that will be described in additional detail herein. Air inlet 111 may be placed in communication with a polluted gas stream such as, for example, a flue ga...

second embodiment

Referring now to FIG. 16, a misting array 320 for use in an abatement system is illustrated. In some embodiments the misting array 320 may be utilized in an abatement system that removes pollutants from a flue gas created by the combustion of coal. The misting array 320 is similar to the first misting array 120 and the second misting array 220, but does not include a middle nozzle row. The misting array 320 includes a sealing piece 330 having a sealing plate 332 and a sealing plate extension 335. Two handles 334 are provided on an exterior face of the sealing plate 332. A frame structure is coupled to and extends from the sealing piece 330 and includes an upper frame structure member 341 having an upper frame structure rim portion (not shown), a side frame structure member 345 having a side frame structure rim portion 346, and a lower frame structure member 343 having a lower frame structure rim portion 344. The frame structure also includes a middle support bar 348 and a side suppo...

third embodiment

Referring now to FIG. 17, FIG. 18A, and FIG. 18B, aspects of a misting array 420 for use in an abatement system are depicted and described. FIG. 17 depicts portions of the sealing piece 430 of the misting array 420. The sealing piece 430 includes a sealing plate 432 having vertically aligned handles 434 thereon. Liquid source couplings 422A, 422B, and 422C of upper, middle, and lower nozzle tubings, respectively, are provided on an exterior side of sealing plate 432. Indicators 438A, 438B, and 438C are coupled to pipe nipples 423A, 423B, and 423C of upper, middle, and lower nozzle tubing proximal respective of liquid source couplings 422A, 422B, and 422C. Fiducial markings 439A, 439B, and 439C are provided on the sealing plate 432 proximal respective of the indicators 438A, 438B, and 438C. The positioning of the indicators 438A, 438B, and 438C with respect to the fiducial markings 439A, 439B, and 439C is indicative of the rotational orientation of respective nozzle tubing coupled to...

Abstract

Various methods and apparatus are disclosed that relate to an abatement system. Some methods and apparatus relate to one or more aspects of a field erectable abatement system. The field erectable abatement system may include a plurality of prefabricated skeleton segments that may be transported to a location and field erected at the location. One or more skin segments may also optionally be provided and optionally be coupled to the skeleton segments prior to being transported to the location.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELDThe present invention is directed generally to aspects of a field erectable abatement system such as, for example, a field erectable pollution abatement system or a field erectable system which removes heat and / or one or more byproducts of combustion from a gas flow. More particularly, various inventive methods and apparatus disclosed herein relate to one or more aspects of a modular system that is field erectable into an abatement system skeleton.BACKGROUNDAbatement systems function, generally, to remove heat and / or one or more pollutants from a stream of flue gas that is created by the combustion of one or more fuels. For example, a heat abatement system may remove, and optionally recover, heat from a stream of flue gas that is created by the combustion of a hydrocarbon fuel. Also, for example, a pollution abatement system may remove one or more pollutants from a stream of flue gas that is created by the combustion of a hydrocarbon fuel. Byproducts of hydrocarbon fu...
