Hello to all,
I'm about to build a fume scrubber and I've designed one but before start I have a question and that is " Is this design correct?"
I have closed system that fumes come out of the reactor to 4 4L gas washing bottles (or sealed buckets).
I'm using nitric acid for base metals, aqua regia for dissolving gold and sodium metabisulfite for precipitating the gold so I have NO, NO2, Cl and SO2 fumes.
First bottle is H2O2 bottle for converting NO to NO2.
the next One is water To make acid from NO2 or Cl Or SO2.
the third one is for Neutralizing the fumes and the forth bottle is trap for the vacuum pump and I have doubt if vacuum pump is needed or not.
and at the end the tube returns to the hood for ventilation If there is remaining gas.
this is picture of my designing
Please help me If my design is correct or not.
Best regards
Tahmoures
