Desulphurisation of combustion gases using a circulating fluidised bed - second phase

Objective



This proposal represents the second phase of work started under Agreement No. 7220ED/038. The project is aimed at investigating the use of a circulating fluidised bed containing a solid sorbent as a method for removing SO2 from the flue gases of a pulverised coal fired power station.

The second phase includes the construction of a pilot plant to process 1 5 000 Nm3/h of flue gases taken from a power station to provide results that will form the basis for technical and economic evaluation of the process (e.g. efficiency of sorbent use, pressure drop, effect on the operation of the downstream electrostatic precipitators, reliability, the quantity and nature of the residues produced, capital and operating costs, and the space required for retrofitting to an existing power station.
