Hi Lee,
HCl? Easy.... just now there are some systems in Alberta for scrubbing pure, unadulterated l00% concentrated HCl even at minus 25 degrees C! Efficiency? Given @ 99%. Design? Inertial 3 micron LMITS scrubber.
Getting back to your question, mine is about the given DI = 6 M. Is that 6 meters diameter?
If that is so, then the airflow will depend, I'd assume, on just what airflow are you generating during the loading of the tank. Probably, at a guess, 500 cfm... which means a fairly small scrubber.
I'd need more info, please.
