APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR REDUCING POLLUTION EMITTED BY AN INDUSTRIAL EXHAUST SOURCE

摘要

An apparatus for reducing pollution emitted by an industrial exhaust source comprises a sleeve having an interior cavity, and at least one sidewall. A sprinkler or water injection system supplies water to the interior cavity of the sleeve, and comprises an incoming water tubing assembly for water flow. At least one secondary tube connects the incoming water tubing assembly to a corresponding number of nozzles within the interior cavity, each injecting a plurality of streams or jets of water therein to cleanse out the mix of pollutants. A hole at a base of the sleeve leads to a pipe, draining the water and the mix of pollutants carried by the water. The base is circumferentially-arranged and slopes down towards the pipe. The pipe is also sloped downward, both allowing for easier flow of the water and the mix of pollutants, preventing collection of these within the base.
