Wet limestone scrubbing has high capital and operati ng cost due to the handling of liquid reagent and waste. Nonetheless, it is the preferred process for coal-fired electric utility power plants burning coal due to the low cost of limestone and SO 2 control efficiencies from 90% up to 98% (Schnelle, 2002). Semi-Dry Systems
The use of wet FGD or FGD wastewater as a SO 3 2− source in SANI (Sulfate reduction, Autotrophic denitrification and Nitrification Integrated) process was …
Coal quality impacts both the resulting FGD blowdown and the disposal alternatives for the final brine. The resulting FGD blowdown water chemistry drives the water recovery, solids formation, and applicable ZLD technologies. This paper presents approaches to evaluating the coal and FGD
Accurate analysis of scrubber solids is critical for determining reaction efficiency and limestone utilization. This article outlines a technology that a colleague and I helped pioneer in the ...
The limestone wet method of FGD is reported to be the most widely used technology in the cleaning of acidic gases in flue gas streams from waste incineration plants [9]. A study by Lecomte et al. …
The performance of a wet FGD system is greatly influenced by gas–liquid-phase mass transfer, i.e.of Ca 2+ ions in the liquid phase and of SO 2 from the gas phase to the aqueous phase (Hrdlička and Dlouhý 2019).This is further influenced by the rate of dissolution of limestone in the system, directly affecting the concentration of dissolved …

Ca-sourced agent dissociates to form calcium sulfite, which further undergoes oxidation and results in the formation of FGD gypsum (CaSO 4 ·2H 2 O) or FGD waste. A wet-scrubber based FGD plant is illustrated in Fig. 3. SO 2 removal efficiency of well-performing wet scrubbers is generally more than 90%.

New state-of-the-art wet FGD systems are typically designed to achieve SO 2 removal levels of 98% and reliability levels of 99%+. The technology used in these modern wet …
A new wet limestone−gypsum process for flue gas desulfurization (FGD) has been developed. The main difference compared to a conventional wet FGD process is the ability of the new process to utilize granular limestone directly as a desulfurizing reagent. Thus, the pulverizing of limestone, which causes power consumption, can be …
