Flue Gases Treatment by Irradiation with Electron Beam in the Presence of Fine Water Droplets

摘要

This paper presents the experimental results obtained during the irradiation process with electron beam of flue gases generated by burning fuel with a high content in sulphur. The ALIN-10 accelerator was used for generating the electron beam. The necessary water was sprayed into the gaseous mixture as fine droplets by the mist pump. The highest removal efficiencies were obtained in the presence of ammonia, electron beam and fine water droplets: 94% for SO2 and 98% for NO_x, respectively. Moreover, in this case, SO2 and NOx were transformed into the useful products: ammonia sulphate and nitrate, respectively.
