A treatment module for use in an abatement system for process exhaust gases. The treatment module has a centrally located flame wall oxidizer module that cause the process exhaust gases to travel within a cylinder of gas a short distance upon exiting the exhaust conduit before the gases are oxidized. Following oxidation, two coaxial cylinders of water spray flush solid, liquid and water soluble components of the oxidation products from the resulting oxidation products stream into a bottom water reservoir. The first inner water spray cylinder coaxially surrounds the flame wall oxidizer module and flows co-currently with the downward flow of oxidation products. The gaseous oxidation products then turn 180 degrees and pass upward through a second outer water spray cylinder located coaxial to and surrounding the first water spray. Thereafter, the remaining water insoluble gaseous oxidation products exit the treatment module.

1. A treatment module for use in an abatement system for process exhaust gases comprising: a containment vessel containing a flame wall oxidizer module, said flame wall oxidizer module provided with a waste process gas conduit with an open terminal end that is surrounded by a fuel ring capable of emitting a cylinder of fuel gas around the open terminal end of the waste process gas conduit, said open terminal end of said waste process gas conduit extending beyond the fuel ring and the fuel ring oriented so that process exhaust gases that exit the open terminal end of the waste process gas conduit are surrounded by the cylinder of fuel gas exiting the fuel ring and the exhaust gases travel within the cylinder of fuel gas a short distance before they oxidize to form an oxidation products stream,an inner coaxial cylinder surrounding the flame wall oxidizer module, water spray nozzles provided in said inner coaxial cylinder and oriented so that they spray water in a direction concurrent with the oxidation products stream that exits from the flame wall oxidizer module,an outer coaxial cylinder surrounding the inner coaxial cylinder, and water spray nozzles provided in said outer coaxial cylinder and oriented so that they spray water in a direction counter-current to the oxidation products stream that reversed its direction of flow after exiting the inner coaxial cylinder. 2. A treatment module for use in an abatement system for process exhaust gases according to claim 1 further comprising: a bottom water reservoir provided within the containment vessel for receiving water from the two coaxial cylinders provided with water spray nozzles. 3. A treatment module for use in an abatement system for process exhaust gases according to claim 2 further comprising: an exit provided in the containment vessel for exhausting treated exhaust gases. 4. A treatment module for use in an abatement system for process exhaust gases according to claim 3 further comprising: a perforated plate provided within the outer coaxial cylinder to increase contact between the exhaust gases and the water spray emanating from the spray nozzles located within the outer coaxial cylinder. 5. A treatment module for use in an abatement system for process exhaust gases according to claim 4 further comprising: a demister provided between the outer coaxial cylinder and the exit to remove water particles from the exhaust gases. 6. A treatment module for use in an abatement system for process exhaust gases according to claim 5 further comprising: a water pump supplying water to said water spray nozzles located within the inner and outer coaxial cylinders. 7. A treatment module for use in an abatement system for process exhaust gases according to claim 6 further comprising: flow meters for supplying fuel gas and oxidizer gas to said flame wall oxidizer module.
