Hydrated Lime or Sorbacal® for Cement Factories

Cement production is an industrial process with significant environmental impacts, particularly regarding atmospheric emissions. During clinker burning, fumes containing sulfur oxides (SOx) and hydrochloric acid (HCl) are generated, which are known to be harmful not only to the environment but also to a crucial component of flue gas purification: the catalytic DeNOx system. The need for advanced technologies to reduce air pollutants is clearly evident, and this is where the use of hydrated lime or Sorbacal® comes into play.

Solution with Hydrated Lime or Sorbacal®

A particularly effective method for flue gas purification in cement plants involves the use of hydrated lime or Sorbacal®, dosed and injected directly through a dedicated dosing device that regulates the amount. The lime is introduced into the exhaust gas flow, where it chemically reacts with acids and oxides, neutralizing them. This integrated approach allows for the complete elimination of pollutants, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations and preventing corrosive substances from damaging the catalytic DeNOx system, thus preserving its operational efficiency.

Flue Gas Cleaning with Hydrated Lime or Sorbacal®

FAQ

During the cement production process, the emitted gases primarily contain Sulfur Oxides (SOx) and Hydrochloric Acid (HCl). These pollutants derive both from the chemical composition of the raw materials used and from the thermochemical transformations necessary for the firing of clinker, the fundamental component of cement.
During the cement production process, the high temperatures involved favor the formation of harmful gases such as SOx and HCl. The use of hydrated lime allows for the interception of these substances, converting them into stable and non-hazardous byproducts. This ensures effective purification of industrial flue gases and helps reduce the environmental impact of the entire production system.
Hydrated lime reliably neutralizes acidic gases in the flue gases, preventing them from causing corrosion and deterioration to the catalytic DeNOx system. This preserves the performance of the NOx reduction system and ensures that the plant remains compliant with environmental regulations.
