V-tex™ is an outstanding scrubbing and stripping technology, providing users with a highly efficient scrubbing/stripping unit operation, in a fraction of the height of a traditional packed tower. And thanks to the opposed-jet spray nozzle at the heart of the technology, V-tex™ offers flexible, robust operability and unrivalled, maintenance-free availability.

Background

V-tex™ technology was first employed in the nuclear industry to scrub both gaseous and particulate contamination while minimising the risk of fouling of scrubber internals and spray nozzle blockage. Using the V-tex™ technology reduced the requirement for hazardous maintenance activity.

With the partial privatisation for the UK Nuclear industry in the 1990s this unique patented technology became available for all applications.

Over the last 15 years the technology has been developed and improved and today there are more than 400 V-tex™ scrubbers and strippers in successful operation across a broad range of process industries and leading global companies.  

V-tex™ technology is available from ERG and its global network of licensees.
