Sorbalite for Oil fired Power Plants

AWithin the modern energy landscape, oil-fired thermal combustion plants play an important role in electricity generation. However, to minimize environmental impact and comply with current regulations, it is crucial to effectively manage polluting emissions resulting from the oil combustion process. Problematic emissions include SOx, HCl, HF, and heavy metals such as lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), and mercury (Hg). These pollutants, if not properly treated, can have negative consequences for the environment and human health.

To effectively combat these emissions, you can use Sorbalite, an advanced solution combining hydrated lime and activated carbon. This combination provides a dual benefit, neutralizing acids and adsorbing heavy metals contained in combustion fumes.

Solution with Sorbalite

Sorbalite presents itself as an innovative option that surpasses traditional flue gas purification methods. Dry injection of Sorbalite directly into the exhaust ducts via a doser allows for highly efficient treatment of acids (SOx, HCl, HF) and adsorption of heavy metals released during the oil combustion process.

Flue Gas Cleaning with Sorbalite

FAQ

The combustion of oil produces a range of pollutants that require careful treatment. These include SOx resulting from the sulfur content of the oil, acids such as HCl and HF that may originate from the breakdown of contaminant substances, as well as heavy metals like lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), and mercury (Hg), often present as impurities in the oil fuel. Effectively managing these substances is essential for complying with environmental regulations and protecting public health.
Sorbalite utilizes its unique combination of lime and activated carbon to address a wide range of pollutants. Hydrated lime reacts with the acids in the fumes, converting them into harmless solid salts that can be easily removed, while activated carbon captures heavy metals and other harmful compounds that are challenging to remove using conventional methods.
In the purification process with Sorbalite, the product is distributed via a dosing system that injects the material directly into the fume stream using a pneumatic system. This allows Sorbalite to interact directly and immediately with the pollutants. Thanks to this single treatment stage, efficient purification is achieved, simplifying the operational process and reducing overall costs.
