PROCESS AND EQUIPMENT FOR THE TREATMENT OF EXHAUST GAS

摘要

In an exhaust gas treatment, the amount of a highly corrosive mercury-halogenating agent to be added is reduced with the mercury-removing efficiency maintained high. A mercury-halogenating agent (40) and ammonia (30) are added to combustion exhaust gas from a boiler, the exhaust gas containing NO x , SO x and mercury. The exhaust gas is brought into contact with a CO/HC oxidation catalyst (50) and is then subjected to reduction denitration (60) in the presence of a solid catalyst. Thereafter, metallic mercury is oxidized to halogenated mercury. Then, the exhaust gas is wet-desulfurized (100) with the alkaline absorbing solution, and the halogenated mercury is removed.
