Overview

The 231 Gas/ Foam Separator is designed for use in piping systems to remove foam caused by agitation from the digester discharge gas. The foam must be dispersed and collected in order to protect downstream equipment from corrosion or clogging. The Gas/ Foam Separator is typically installed in the gas piping system as gas exits the digester. Entrained foam and solids are removed from the gas as it flows through the device. This is accomplished by subjecting the gas/ foam mixture to a direct spray of water inside the chamber.
