The subject invention relates to a method for removing hot exhaust treatment gases containing tin or titanium compounds associated with glass making operations. The apparatus and method herein described comprises exhausting the treatment gases through a plurality of directed fluid treating patterns whereby the hydroscopic materials are hydrated forming aggregates and the suspended particles are wetted, passing the exhausted gases over a supply of a treating fluid whereby some of the aggregates and wetted particles are removed, exposing thereafter the exhausted gases to ions in an electrostatic field so that the remaining aggregates and wetted particles are charged and travel under the influence of the field, and removing the charged aggregates and particles by a descending fluid film.
