Emergency gas scrubber for chlorine leaks
Ensure air safety during chlorine emergencies with a reliable scrubbing solution that binds hazardous gases quickly and effectively, maintaining a secure environment without the need for mechanical ventilation.

Neutralizes and Purifies Hazardous Industrial Gases
The Emergency Gas Scrubber from GEA leverages Jet Scrubber technology to provide robust emission control for the chemical and water treatment industries. Designed for rapid deployment and high operational safety, this system neutralizes hazardous gases like chlorine and ammonia without a mechanical ventilator, ensuring immediate purification of air emissions. The scrubbing unit operates via a submergible pump, requiring only the circulation pump to be activated for instantaneous functionality.
Available in four standard sizes and constructed primarily from polyethylene (PE), the scrubber adapts to different gas volumes and air throughput requirements, with custom solutions available for larger capacities. Approved for corrosive chemicals like caustic soda and sulfuric acid, it ensures reliable performance in demanding environments. The scrubbing stage’s compact design facilitates integration into existing production lines, while the automatic suction of gas flows enhances process reliability. Ideal for continuous operations, this solution offers a seamless fit into safety and environmental operations across chemical, water treatment, and manufacturing settings.
