Continuous electro-scrubbers for the removal of perchloroethylene: Keys for selection

In this work, the removal of perchloroethylene (PCE) using continuous-operation electro-scrubbers is evaluated. Two types of electro-scrubbers were made by combining a jet mixer or a packed absorption column with a single flow-cell. The absorbent/electrolyte is recirculated between both devices, bei...
