Wet scrubbers and dry media dust collectors are two very different technologies used to capture combustible dusts generated during production processes. These processes include but are not limited to ...

Among the many types of pollution-abatement systems in use today, wet fluegas desulfurization (FGD) systems – also known as wet scrubbers – are notoriously capital- and maintenance-intensive. Mist ...

In coal-fired power plants, measurement and control of pH is critical to the efficient operation of wet flue gas scrubbers. However, harsh process conditions can necessitate frequent cleaning and ...

Are you using your flue gas desulfurization (FGD) system to its highest potential? You might not be if you’re not making it do double duty. It seems that million ...

The flue gas desulfurization (FGD) process removes sulfur dioxide (SO 2) — one of the elements in acid rain — from fossil fuel power-plant emissions. FGD systems, commonly called scrubbers, encompass ...

The calcium carbonate (CaCO 3) in limestone is only slightly soluble in water, but in the presence of acid, it reacts much more vigorously. It is the acid generated by absorption of the SO 2 into the ...
