Sorbent components containing halogen, calcium, alumina, and silica are used in combination during coal combustion to produce environmental benefits. Sorbents such as calcium bromide are added to the coal ahead of combustion and other components are added into the flame or downstream of the flame, preferably at minimum temperatures to assure complete formation of the refractory structures that result in various advantages of the methods. When used together, the components reduce emissions of elemental and oxidized mercury; increase the level of Hg, As, Pb, and/or Cl in the coal ash; decrease the levels of leachable heavy metals (such as Hg) in the ash, preferably to levels below the detectable limits; and make a highly cementitious ash product.

Proposed is an exhaust gas processing device for a thermal power station. The exhaust gas processing device includes: a diffusion module portion configured to adjust an exhaust gas flow, between a duct disposed on a rear end of a gas turbine of a thermal power station and the gas turbine, thereby inducing same toward an inner wall of the duct; a plurality of spray nozzles installed in a flow section, inside the duct, of an exhaust gas induced from the diffusion module portion toward the inner wall of the duct and protruding formed from the inner wall of the duct; a fluid supply pipe connected to the spray nozzles and being extended to the outside of the duct; and a fluid supply portion configured to supply liquid-phase contaminant processing fluid to the spray nozzles through the fluid supply pipe.

A nozzle lance for exhaust gas treatment, a combustion plant with nozzle lances for exhaust gas treatment and a method for exhaust gas treatment in a combustion plant are proposed, wherein an admixing fluid is admixed to the active fluid in the nozzle lance and atomized via three nozzles.

A flue gas additive is provided that includes both a nitrogenous component to reduce gas phase nitrogen oxides and a halogen-containing component to oxidize gas phase elemental mercury.

A nozzle lance for exhaust gas treatment, a combustion plant with nozzle lances for exhaust gas treatment, and a method for exhaust gas treatment in a combustion plant are proposed, whereby an added fluid can be mixed in with the active fluid in or immediately in front of the nozzle lance.

The disclosure relates generally to reducing mercury emissions from a coal power plant. Specifically, a method for treating a gas stream containing mercury is provided that includes injecting a mercury oxidant or absorbent and a carrying agent into a gas stream that was produced by heating or burning a carbonaceous fuel comprising mercury. The carrying agent vaporizes after being injected into the gas stream. The mercury oxidant or absorbent and a carrying agent may be injected before passing the gas stream into a gas scrubber.

A method for controlling a wet flue gas desulfurization device includes a step of constructing a first learning model by machine learning of a relationship between a future sulfur dioxide concentration at an outlet of the absorption tower, and operation data of the combustion device and operation data of the wet flue gas desulfurization device including a circulation flow rate of the absorption liquid, a step of creating, by using the first learning model, a first relationship table between a circulation flow rate of the absorption liquid at first time and a sulfur dioxide concentration in an effluent gas flowing out of the absorption tower at second time which is time in the future relative to the first time, a step of deciding, based on the first relationship table, the circulation flow rate of the absorption liquid at the first time, at which the sulfur dioxide concentration in the effluent gas at the second time is not more than a preset set value, and a step of adjusting an operation condition of the at least one circulation pump based on the decided circulation flow rate, at the first time.
