Abstract

The conceptualization of the industrial air dust removal and air-cooling machine is rooted in the principles of fluid mechanics and the practical application of applied chemistry. Dust contamination in industry has a significant impact on both production safety and worker health. In recent years, wet-type and bag-type dust collectors with high efficiency have been widely utilized for dust removal. However, several issues exist, including high resistance and energy consumption.

An air pump is utilized to draw in contaminated air from the severely polluted industrial area, guiding it into the central chamber. Within this space, the contaminated air undergoes purification as it passes through a plastic net, a transparent cloth, and water. Another air pump is subsequently engaged to extract the purified air from the chamber and reintroduce it into the industrial environment.

The cooling effect is inherent in this process, given that the water temperature consistently remains lower than the air temperature. This dual-action system provides the industrial setting with both clean and cooled air, contributing to the efficiency of the air conditioning system.
