Flue-Gas Desulfurization (FGD)

Flue-gas desulfurization (FGD) is a set of technologies used to remove harmful gas such as sulfur dioxide from exhaust flue gases of fossil-fuel power plants. In this technique, sulfur dioxide is also removed from the emissions of other sulfur oxide emitting processes such as waste incineration. In the Flue-Gas Desulfurization process, wastewater is produced, this wastewater must … Read more
