The present invention discloses a method for ammonium-enhanced flue gas desulfurization (FGD) by using red mud slurry. The method specifically includes: crushing red mud, sieving the crushed red mud, slurrying the red mud, conducting aeration treatment, adding an ammonium salt and/or ammonia, and conducting natural sedimentation to obtain pretreated red mud slurry and pretreated red mud liquor; adding an ammonium salt and/or ammonia to the slurry, adding water and conducting uniform mixing, conducting pre-FGD, conducting deep desulfurization on treated flue gas by using the pretreated red mud liquor, and directly discharging desulfurized flue gas; and charging the pretreated red mud slurry and the pretreated red mud liquor obtained after the treatment to a replacement tank below, adding lime milk to the replacement tank, conducting stirring and natural sedimentation, conducting soilization on subnatant thick red mud slurry, and refluxing the supernatant to a red mud aeration tank.

A scrubbing assembly for treating malodorous air by chemical scrubbing one or more chemical components from an influent airflow, particularly one or more chemical components that have become airborne from chemical intervention solutions used during food processing, such as vapors from peroxycarboxylic acid solutions used during food processing. The peroxycarboxylic acid vapors are removed from air in a continuous manner within the scrubber assembly utilizing a neutralizing chemical solution to provide a treated effluent airflow that can be returned back to the point of use area from which the malodorous air was removed for treatment.

Devices and methods for controlling humidity including an aqueous saturated solution of a salt and/or a sugar in combination with an additive in which all components of the saturated solution are food grade. The device may or may not include a container, such as a flexible pouch, encasing the aqueous saturated solution and/or an absorbent pad. The pouch or other container may be made of a material which is moisture permeable and liquid impermeable, for example, and the aqueous saturated solution further comprises a thickening agent. In some embodiments, the components of the aqueous saturated salt solution are separately contained in different compartments of the device container, and a user may activate the device to mix the components together.

This disclosure is related to systems, methods, apparatuses, and techniques for generating water using waste heat. In certain embodiments, a system includes a water generating unit and a waste-heat-generating-system. The water generating unit can be configured to generate the water and comprises a desiccation device and a condenser coupled to the desiccation device. The waste-heat-generating-system can generate the waste heat when operating or is use. The water generating unit can be configured to use waste heat generated by the waste-heat-generating-system to generate the water.

The invention disclosed herein relates to an odor control system including features to allow a media scrubber to function to treat a humid, or saturated, or superheated exhaust stream. In some embodiments, the system disclosed herein can capture a humid, or saturated, or superheated exhaust stream, such as from a kettle vent, and dilute the exhaust with fresh air to lower the temperature of the combined air flow below its dew point. Water is drained from the system as it condenses in the system. The combined air flow can be further diluted and/or treated according to embodiments disclosed herein such that the exhaust stream, after having excess water removed, will have a relative humidity (RH) value enabling it to be run through a media scrubber.

An alkaline aqueous ferric iron salt solution is disclosed. Generally, the alkaline aqueous ferric iron salt solution comprises ferric ions (Fe.sup.3+), potassium ions (K.sup.+), carbonate ions (CO.sub.3.sup.2−), bicarbonate ions (HCO.sub.3.sup.−), hydroxide ions (OH.sup.−), optionally nitrate ions (NO.sub.3.sup.−). Further, a molar ratio of the potassium ions to the ferric ions is generally at least 5.0. The ferric iron is complexed with carbonate, bicarbonate or both to form a water-soluble complex that is anionic in nature and highly soluble in the alkaline aqueous ferric iron salt solution at pH above 8.5, and a pH of the alkaline aqueous ferric iron salt solution is at least 8.5.

The removal of acid gases (e.g., non-carbon dioxide acid gases) using sorbents that include salts in molten form, and related systems and methods, are generally described.

Systems and methods are disclosed and include a controller and a water recovery device. The water recovery device includes a desiccant stack including a chamber defining an airflow path therein. The water recovery device includes an evaporator in communication with the desiccant stack and one or more condensers in communication with the desiccant stack. The controller is configured to set the water recovery system to one of an absorption mode and an extraction mode. The water recovery device is configured to receive ambient air in the chamber to remove water vapor using the liquid desiccant and retain the water vapor in the chamber when the water recovery system is in the absorption mode. The water recovery device is configured to remove the water vapor within the chamber when the water recovery system is in the extraction mode.

The present invention is directed to the removal of mercury from a gas phase by injecting a scavenger solution into the gas phase.
