Abstract:
1. A mist eliminator system for gas scrubbers, the system comprising: an upstream and a downstream mist elimination layer relative to a gas-flow direction through the eliminator system, the layers each consisting of a row of parallel mist elimination profiles extending transverse to the direction from a respective outer lateral wall and each having the shape of a V or of an inverted V, lateral sections of each layer extending away from or parallel to the corresponding lateral sections of the other layer, common support plates supporting both mist elimination layers supported on a single common carrier structure, means for releasably securing the lateral walls of the mist elimination layers to the support plates, the plates extending in and against the flow direction past the lateral walls of the layers, and respective upstream and downstream connecting rods extending transversely of the direction between and directly fixed in the plates upstream and downstream of the downstream and upstream layers.
