A quench tower (QT) is aimed to fast reduce the flue gas temperature to restrain the de novo synthesis of dioxins and furans. Activated carbon (AC) is added into the upstream flue of the bag filter to adsorb dioxins, furans and heavy metals. A bag filter (BF) was installed to capture the particles in the flue gas.
Abstract: With the rapid development in industrialization and urbanization, various air pollutants are emitted into atmospheric environment. NO, SO 2, Hg 0 are the most important pollutant in the flue gas. The application of non-thermal plasma (NTP) technology in the removal of NO, SO 2, Hg 0 was reviewed respectively. Environmental applications have mainly involved plus corona …
Previous, initial tests showed negligible Hg 0 uptake by Na-X zeolite, but silver impregnation improved adsorption markedly. Therefore, the testing of mercury adsorption from flue gases into Ag + - impregnated Na-X synthetic zeolite (Ag-X zeolite) derived from coal fly ash was carried out. This material was characterized by X-ray diffraction ...
Elements can be divided into two groups according to their releasing characteristics, high volatile elements (release ratio higher than 30%) are represented by Cd, Cu, Hg, Pb, Se and Sn, which emitted mainly in flue gas that would travel and deposit at the northeast and southwest direction around the brick plant.

The excellent Hg 0 adsorption performance of Cu-hs was attributed to the high affinity of the selenium in Cu 2 Se for mercury, the homogeneous distribution of Cu 2 Se, and the superior fluid characteristics of the Cu foam substrate. The adsorption performance of the spent Cu-hs could be effectively recovered by HCl solution leaching and ...
A detailed analysis was performed on the slurry supernatant water obtained from a wet flue gas desulfurization ... respectively. The levels of B, Se, and Hg in the FGD water were sometimes high (44–62 mg/L for B, 0.24–0.37 mg/L for Se, and 0.11–0.23 mg/L for Hg), and these values exceeded the Japanese national effluent standards for ...
Flue gas and CKD were the primary volatile heavy metal (Hg) output streams. Greater than 70% of the semi-volatile heavy metals (Cd, Pb, Tl and Se) distributed in hot raw meal and bypass cement kiln dust. The low-volatility heavy metals were concentrated in …
The MERCOX process is a flue gas cleaning method for the purpose of separating mercury from the flue gas. In this process the metallic mercury, which is insoluble in water, is oxidised to water-soluble forms. In the same cleaning stage, hydrochloric acid and sulphur dioxide are also separated. During the incineration of material containing ...
To obtain the proportions of As, Hg, Sb and Se in the flue gas of coal fired power plants that were emitted into the atmosphere, the overall material balances were calculated by: (1) M in = M out where Min is the amount of each element that is added into the coal combustion process when the coal is burned.
The emission concentration of heavy metals in flue gas was related to its concentration in sludge. 3. The concentration of tested heavy metals in bottom ash and fly ash were higher than in the sludge. Mercury was almost always distributed in flue gas with the least in bottom ash and fly ash. The Pb was enriched in bottom ash (RE > 0.9).
Mercury emission from industrial activities is a great threat to public health and ecosystems. Developing new strategies and materials to remove mercury still remains a serious task. Herein, selenide-decorated copper foam prepared by a heating-stirring method (Cu-hs) was used as a monolithic mercury adsorption material. The Cu-hs exhibited much better adsorption of …

The optimum wet scrubber system has such design goals as maximum particulate collection, low power consumption, and low maintenance. In this study, the performance and operating experiences of existing utility scrubber systems and the state-of-the- art in design of scrubber components are reviewed. Based on this review, guidelines are given for ...
Thermoelectric power generation from coal requires large amounts of water, much of which is used for wet flue gas desulfurization (wFGD) systems that minimize sulfur emissions, and consequently, acid rain. The microbial communities in wFGDs and throughout thermoelectric power plants can influence system performance, waste processing, and the long term …
Arsenic is one of the most hazardous compounds released into the atmosphere from coal conversion processes. One possibility to limit its amount in the flue gas is to inject dusty sorbents directly into the flue gas duct. The aim of this study was to analyze the removal efficiency of gaseous forms of As on selected Ca-based materials, with a focus on sorbents …

An emissions study for mercury was conducted at a 300 MW coal-fired plant equipped with an electrostatic precipitator (ESP). The input and output streams such as coal, slag, ESP ash, and flue gas were collected. Gaseous mercury was sampled using the Ontario Hydro method. The experimental data indicate that the majority of mercury goes into flue gas. The …
As, Hg, and Se are the most volatile elements in the flue gas from a coal-fired power plant. Significant amounts of these elements cause an undesired direct gaseous emission, which leads to a serious environmental health risk. The main focus of this study is to evaluate the possibility of simultaneous sampling of these volatile elements using ...
