Abstract:
A system and method for reducing foaming in a wet scrubber system. The system utilizes a device for measuring the volume of entrained gas in the wet scrubbing system, and automatically or semi-automatically adjusting one or more process parameters including: a flow rate of antifoam/ defoamer chemistry in said wet scrubber; a flow rate of flue gas; and a flow rate of fresh water. The system allows real-time monitoring and control of the foam in said wet scrubber.
