Comprehensive Chemical Cleaning of Flue Gases of Thermal Waste Treatment Plants Using a Catalytic Filter

The efficiency of integrated gas emissions treatment in thermal waste treatment units from dust particles and fossil sour traces of SO2, HCl and HF, as well as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and dioxins at 300–400 °C of the gas mixture with a ceramic gas filter with aluminosilicate fibers added with catalytic MgCr2O4. The efficiency of sorption purification of tail gases from SO2, HCl and HF during the test period was 79–90 %, which depended on the supply of slaked lime to the catalytic filter to prevent catalyst deactivation. Thermal mode of chemical refining (300–400 °C) provided effective catalytic purification from VOCs, CO, and dioxins in combination with the chemisorption recapture of catalytic poisons and dust, preventing neither sorbent degradation nor damage to the catalyst.
