Transactions . tegrator the water is projected toward the periphery of the ap-paratus and is broken up into a fine spray; the gas mixes thoroughlywith this water and is cooled, and most of the dust contained in thegas is precipitated.

The application of the counter-current principle enables the gas toencounter cleaner and colder water in its passage through the disin-tegrator; hence it is better cleaned, and its temperature is reducedmore nearly to the temperature of the entering cooling water. Thisprinciple has the effect of materially reducing the amount of waterand power consumed. Each disk is direct driven by an individualmotor and the speed is determined by the degree of cleanliness de-sired in the gas. The gas is drawn through the disintegrator bymeans of a fan located immediately behind the disintegrator ap-paratus, and passes from the fan to a water separator.
