Abstract
A device for dispersing foul gaseous effluent emissions released diffusely by sources located close to the ground, in particular by wastewater treatment ponds (10, 11, 12), includes: at least two auxiliary air or gas injectors (5a1, 5b1; 5a2, 5b2; 5a3, 5b3) oriented upwards and installed in opposing zones on the periphery of each foul gaseous effluent source, such as to disperse the gaseous effluents; separate supply elements (8.1, 13a1, 13b1; 8.2, 13a2, 13b2; 8.3, 13a3, 13b3) for the injectors; and wind-direction-sensitive control elements for ensuring that at least the injector(s) best located to disperse and/or lift the gaseous effluent plume are supplied.
Claims15
A device for dispersing foul gaseous effluent emissions at the source, comprising:
- a foul gaseous effluent source tank,
- at least two auxiliary gas or air injectors directed upward, installed at the periphery of the foul gaseous effluent source tank, in opposite zones, so as to disperse the foul gaseous effluents,
- means for supplying the injectors, each injector being supplied by a separate supply means,
- and control means sensitive to the wind direction arranged in order to select the start-up of the injector(s) best located, depending on the wind direction, for dispersing and/or raising the gaseous effluent plume.
