Abstract
Abstract A gas containing bad smell substances and a washing solution for deodorization are fed into a wash tower so as to carry out the deodorization by the gas-liquid contact. An aqueous solution of an alkali bromide and an ozone-containing gas are fed into a bubbling vessel to produce in active bromine oxide compound. The solution containing the active bromine oxide compound is added to the washing solution and the bad smell gas is washed with the washing solution in the wash tower. The effect of deodorization is improved by the function of the bromine oxide compound and an amount of ozone discharged out of the system is decreased.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
60 words
A process for deodorization of a gas containing bad smell substances comprising bubbling an ozone-containing gas through an aqueous solution of an alkali bromide in a bubbling vessel, to obtain a washing solution containing from about 0.10 g per liter to about 0.65 g per liter BrO - and contacting the gas with the washing solution in a wash tower.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
60 words
A process for deodorization of a gas containing bad smell substances comprising bubbling an ozone-containing gas through an aqueous solution of an alkali bromide in a bubbling vessel, to obtain a washing solution containing from about 0.10 g per liter to about 0.65 g per liter BrO - and contacting the gas with the washing solution in a wash tower.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
33 words
A process for deodorization according to claim 1 wherein said washing solution is stored in said wash tower and a part of said washing solution is discharged and replaced with fresh washing solution.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
51 words
A process for deodorization according to claim 2, wherein the amount of washing solution discharged is from 1 to 3 wt% based on said bad smell gas and the amount of fresh washing solution fed into the washing tower is from 1.3 to 3.5 wt% based on said bad smell gas.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
18 words
A process for deodorization according to claim 1 wherein a plastic packing is packed in said wash tower.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
23 words
A process for deodorization according to claim 4 wherein said plastic packing is tellerettes, nets or rings made of polyvinyl chloride or polyethylene.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
41 words
A process for deodorization according to claim 1 wherein the rate of said washing solution fed into the wash tower for washing said gas, is from 0.5 2.0 times the rate of said bad smell gas fed into the wash tower.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
36 words
A process for deodorization according to claim 1 wherein the concentration of BrO - in the washing solution is maintained within said concentrations by controlling the rate of said ozone-containing gas fed into said bubbling vessel.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
31 words
A process for deodorization according to claim 1 where the concentration of BrO - in the washing solution is from about 0.28 g per liter to about 0.65 g per liter.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
29 words
A process for deodorization according to claim 1 wherein the bubbling vessel is provided with a discharge passage for discharging gas therefrom, the discharge passage containing an ozone-decomposing catalyst.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
83 words
A process for the deodorization of a gas containing bad smell substances comprising bubbling an ozone-containing gas through an aqueous solution of an alkali bromide in a bubbling vessel to obtain a washing solution containing from about 0.10 g per liter to about 0.65 g per liter BrO - , contacting the gas with the washing solution in a wash tower, withdrawing wash solution which has contacted the gas, and recycling it through the bubbling vessel in admixture with the alkali bromide solution.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
83 words
A process for the deodorization of a gas containing bad smell substances comprising bubbling an ozone-containing gas through an aqueous solution of an alkali bromide in a bubbling vessel to obtain a washing solution containing from about 0.10 g per liter to about 0.65 g per liter BrO - , contacting the gas with the washing solution in a wash tower, withdrawing wash solution which has contacted the gas, and recycling it through the bubbling vessel in admixture with the alkali bromide solution.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
28 words
A process for deodorization according to claim 10 wherein the wash solution contains from about 0.28 g per liter to about 0.65 g per liter BrO - .
