Product catalog summary
Introduction
Gardner Denver Solutions provides forced oxidation air blowers for wet flue gas desulfurization (FGD) processes. These blowers are essential for introducing air to accelerate oxidation in the spray tower or absorber, crucial for removing sulfur dioxide from flue gas.

Product Overview
Gardner Denver's Hoffman & Lamson multistage centrifugal blowers are designed for reliability and low maintenance, making them ideal for continuous operation in the power industry. These blowers are preferred over high-speed single-stage blowers due to their comparable efficiency and reduced downtime.

The document details performance specifications for three primary blower models (1870, 2000, 2400) used in FGD applications. Key specifications include:
  • Maximum airflow: 15,000 to 41,000 cfm
  • Maximum pressure: 19 to 22 psig
  • Standard features: multiple baffle rings, balance piston, labyrinth seal

Design Benefits
Gardner Denver blowers are designed for efficiency and longevity, featuring:
  • Multiple stages and impellers for tailored pressure and airflow
  • Low-speed operation for reduced downtime
  • Simple design with fewer components for maintenance savings
  • Low noise levels compared to high-speed units
