Gas Scrubbers
Laboratory-Scale Gas Scrubbers
Air and exhaust cleanup
Available in two sizes: 3L and 20L
Borosilicate glass components
Order stands and clamps separately
Chemglass laboratory-scale gas scrubbers are used in many air and exhaust cleanup tasks. Gas scrubbing takes place when the exhaust enters the inlet in the round bottom flask and travels upward through the absorption column. The scrubbing fluid is pumped from the round bottom flask upwards into the shower head adapter and then flows counter-current to the exhaust gas through the packed column thereby causing intensive contact between the two. Scrubbers can be used by creating either a positive flow through the reaction vessel using a carrier such as nitrogen, or by connection of a vacuum source to the column adapter.
The 3 liter is a compact design and will fit into a laboratory hood, or can be used in walk-in hoods when assembled on our CG-1951-100 mobile or CG-1950-100 benchtop reactor stands.
NOTE: Stands and support clamps are not included and must be ordered separately.
