FLUE GASES

Cleaning of combustion or incineration flue gases using caustic soda.

Compliance with European and U.S. standards relating to gaseous discharges, both in energy production and that of waste incineration, requires the use of ever-improving gas scrubbing technologies. Among the technologies used, the washing of gases in a scrubber using alkaline solutions, is a process offered by a large number of engineering companies specialising in the field of gas scrubbing.

The concentrations of the solution used vary according to the application, the level of performance to be achieved and the particular economic conditions. The level of scubbing performance of this technology allows reductions in acid components (HCI, SO2, etc.) And in heavy metals (Hg, Cd, etc.) To comply with the requireemnts of international and national satndards.
