SIMULTANEOUS TREATMENT OF FLUE GAS WITH SOx ABSORBENT REAGENT AND NOx REDUCING AGENT

摘要

A system and method for treating flue gas that results from a combustion process is described. The method and system includes injecting an SOx absorbent reagent into the flue gas pathway at a point upstream of a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) reactor exit and downstream of a boiler exit. The method and system may also include injecting a NOx reducing agent simultaneously with the SOx absorbent reagent, either via the same injection system or via a second injection system located nearby the SOx absorbent reagent injection system. Injection of the SOx at a point upstream of the SCR reactor exit simplifies the injection systems, gas distribution systems, and physical and/or computational fluid dynamics modeling.
