Development and testing of the NOXSO flue gas cleaning process

The MK-Ferguson Company is the engineering construction member of a team that includes the NOXSO Corporation as the technology developer; W. R. Grace Co-Conn as the sorbent supplier; and Ohio Edison as the owner of the host site. This team is working together to bring to commercial status the NOXSO simultaneous SO{sub 2}/NOX Flue Gas Cleaning System. The NOXSO System is a regenerable system that uses a dry sorbent to simultaneously capture up to 90% SO{sub 2} and NOX in the flue gas. Regeneration produces elemental sulfur--no waste products. NOX is driven off the sorbent with hot air, and the heated air/NOX stream is recycled to the furnace. It is applicable to both retrofit applications, and to new plants. 15 figs.
