  2. Flue-gas desulfurization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flue-gas_desulfurization

    The G. G. Allen Steam Station scrubber (North Carolina) Flue-gas desulfurization (FGD) is a set of technologies used to remove sulfur dioxide (SO2) from exhaust flue gases of fossil-fuel power plants, and from the emissions of other sulfur oxide emitting processes such as waste incineration, petroleum refineries, cement and lime kilns.

  3. Wet sulfuric acid process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet_sulfuric_acid_process

    The wet sulfuric acid process (WSA process) is a gas desulfurization process. After Danish company Haldor Topsoe introduced this technology in 1987, it has been recognized as a process for recovering sulfur from various process gases in the form of commercial quality sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4) with the simultaneous production of high-pressure steam.

  4. SNOX process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SNOX_process

    The SNOX process is a very energy-efficient way to convert the NOx in the flue gas into nitrogen and the SOx into concentrated sulfuric acid of commercial quality without using any absorbents and without producing waste products or waste water. Along with the flue gases, other sulfurous waste streams from a refinery can be treated, such as H 2 ...

  5. Claus process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claus_process

    The Claus process is the most significant gas desulfurizing process, recovering elemental sulfur from gaseous hydrogen sulfide. First patented in 1883 by the chemist Carl Friedrich Claus, the Claus process has become the industry standard. The multi-step Claus process recovers sulfur from the gaseous hydrogen sulfide found in raw natural gas ...

  6. Desulfurization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desulfurization

    Desulfurization or desulphurisation is a chemical process for the removal of sulfur from a material. This involves either the removal of sulfur from a molecule (e.g. A=S → A:) or the removal of sulfur compounds from a mixture such as oil refinery streams. [1] These processes are of great industrial and environmental importance as they provide ...

  7. Wellman–Lord process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wellman–Lord_process

    The Wellman–Lord process is a regenerable process to remove sulfur dioxide from flue gas ( flue-gas desulfurization) without creating a throwaway sludge product. In this process, sulfur dioxide from flue gas is absorbed in a sodium sulfite solution in water forming sodium bisulfite; other components of flue gas are not absorbed.

  8. Circulating fluidized bed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulating_fluidized_bed

    For the case of catalytic gas-phase reaction process, gas back mixing should be avoided thus the reacted product is the gas phase. Another characteristic of the circulating fluidized bed is, as it required promoting the small contact time of gas and solid catalyst and plug flow , a significant high gas velocity in the riser is needed.

  9. Amine gas treating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amine_gas_treating

    Amine gas treating, also known as amine scrubbing, gas sweetening and acid gas removal, refers to a group of processes that use aqueous solutions of various alkylamines (commonly referred to simply as amines) to remove hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) and carbon dioxide (CO 2) from gases. [1][2][3] It is a common unit process used in refineries, and is ...
