About air scrubbers & odour control
Air scrubbers treat exhaust air from a central exhaust system before it leaves the farm. Their performance depends on airflow, the pollutants in the air, pressure loss and how the washing water and packing are maintained. The scrubber water also needs a destination.
Common configurations
Biological scrubbers
Microbes on a wet packing.
Chemical scrubbers
Acid washing for ammonia.
Packings and stages
Different media and combinations.
