RESEARCH
AND DEVELOPMENT
Until the late 1980s, high efficiency total NOx
(NO+NO2) wet scrubbing was not available commercially.The stability
and relative insolubility of the NOcomponent of NOx was the reason.
Duall systems engineers recognized this problem and designed a super
efficient NO oxidation system to provide the market place with a
total NOx wet scrubbing process. Currently, the competitive nature
of the market has made better operating efficiency for this type
system a requirement.
Again, Duall has responded.
Duall, through
research and development with the University of Michigan Chemical
Engineering Department, has developed a unique, high efficiency
wet oxidation/reduction approach to control your NOx emissions.
Refining and updating this process has led to
a new generation of total NOx scrubbers for the chemical process
industry.
The table below
is a sample of independent third party test results, demonstrating
the incredible oxidation efficiency of NO to NO2 in a ßeta
NOx 2000 system, as well as simultaneous destruction of SO2.

Testing
occurred in August of 1995. Scrubber tested was operating at 45,000
ACFM at essentially ambient conditions. Test methods using certified
gas standards were: USEPA 7 for NO and USEPA 6 for SO2. A chemilluminescent
analyzer was the analytical device.
