What do Quench, Caustic wash, and quench stripping mean?
Caustic wash: alkaline cleaning; Quench: rapid cooling, hardening; Quench stripping: not sure, is it extraction through rapid cooling?
\"Quench\" has different meanings in various fields: it can refer to quenching or rapid cooling. In coking plants, it denotes coke quenching. \"Caustic wash\" refers to alkali washing, which is generally used to remove acidic gases. \"Quench stripping\" is likely to refer to the vaporization treatment using cold water
quench: hardening by rapid cooling; caustic wash: cleaning with an alkaline solution; quench stripping: unclear – it would be better if the original poster provided more context.
Caustic wash: alkaline cleaning; Quench: rapid cooling, hardening; Quench stripping: removal by rapid cooling, separation via rapid cooling?
I know that “quench” refers to hardening, and “coastic wash” is alkali washing. Our company uses alkali washing to remove sulfur dioxide from the exhaust gases, thereby purifying the air. What does “quench stripping” mean? Is it water-cooled distillation or something related to hardening and extraction?
I know now; the meanings of these three terms are rapid cooling, alkali washing, and rapid cooling stripping. Indeed, context is needed to explain them. Thank you all for your help~~~
quench: hardening; caustic wash: alkaline washing; quench stripping: hardening stripping
In Shell gasification, right?
