TL;DR: In this paper, a method for spray-drying, large volumes of a detergent slurry in a spraydrying tower which includes spraying at least a portion of the slurry, cocurrently with air having a specified temperature and velocity range, through uniformly spaced atomizing nozzles into a cylindrically shaped drying zone.
Abstract: A method is provided for spray-drying, large volumes of a detergent slurry in a spray-drying tower which includes spraying at least a portion of the slurry, cocurrently with air having a specified temperature and velocity range, through uniformly spaced atomizing nozzles into a cylindrically shaped drying zone. Any remaining balance of the slurry is sprayed countercurrently into the drying zone at higher levels in the spray tower.

TL;DR: In this paper, a spray tower is used for cleaning waste flue gas, where a reactant solution is sprayed into a waste gas, and the water contained in the droplets is vaporized and the reaction products are dried into solid particles by the sensible heat of said flue gases.
Abstract: A waste flue gas cleaning method and an apparatus for practicing said method, in which a reactant solution is sprayed into a waste flue gas introduced into a spray tower, whereby a toxic component in the flue gas is caused to be absorbed in and react with the droplets of the sprayed reactant solution, and the water contained in the droplets is vaporized and the reaction products are dried into solid particles by the sensible heat of said flue gas. A series of the above operation is accomplished within the spray tower while maintaining the outlet gas temperature always above the dew point of the flue gas, and the solid particles of the reaction products are removed from the flue gas by an after dust collector.
