Abstract
The report summarizes knowledge and data obtained during the first phase of investigations into foam scrubbing. It gives detailed information concerning foam scrubber theory, experimentation, and economics. The theory pertains to mechanisms influencing the behavior of fine particles and the possibilities of their capture by foam. Collection efficiencies obtained on a bench scale foam scrubber show that foam scrubbing can be a viable fine particle control device. Preliminary economic analysis indicates that foam scrubbing can be competitive with other fine particle collection devices if the surfactant solution is recycled effectively. The report recommends that surfactant recycle be verified, using a bench scale foam scrubber.
