Purpose of Incinerator ,Scrubber & Electrostatic Precipitator - Environment & Biodiversity
Q. Match the following processes with their purpose.
1) Incinerator ----------------------- Burning of combustible solid waste
2) Scrubber -------------------------- Scrubs carbon deposited by gases emitted by industrial processes
3) Electrostatic Precipitator ----- Use of electrodes for waste treatment- Published on 31 Aug 15a. Only 1 and 2
b. Only 2 and 3
c. Only 3
d. None of the above
ANSWER: None of the above
Incinerator and Electrostatic Precipitator are correctly matched. Scrubbers are wet collectors. They remove aerosols from a stream of gas either by collecting wet particles on a surface followed by their removal, or else the particles are wetted by a scrubbing liquid.
