System and method for reducing halogen levels necessary for mercury control, increasing the service life and/or catalytic activity of an SCR catalyst and/or control of multiple emissions

The present invention relates generally to the field of emission control equipment for boilers, heaters, kilns, or other flue gas-, or combustion gas-, generating devices (e.g., those located at power plants, processing plants, etc.) and, in particular to a new and useful method and apparatus for: (i) reducing halogen levels necessary to affect gas-phase mercury control; (ii) reducing or preventing the poisoning and/or contamination of an SCR catalyst; and/or (iii) controlling various emissions. In still another embodiment, the present invention relates to a method and apparatus for: (A) simultaneously reducing halogen levels necessary to affect gas-phase mercury control while achieving a reduction in the emission of mercury; and/or (B) reducing the amount of selenium contained in and/or emitted by one or more pieces of emission control equipment for boilers, heaters, kilns, or other flue gas-, or combustion gas-, generating devices (e.g., those located at power plants, processing plants, etc.).

BIOWALL SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR POLLUTANT PROCESSING

A biowall has a support structure, an irrigation system, and a dissolution system. The support structure holds a plurality of plants thereon. The dissolution system dissolves pollutants from air into solution. Using the irrigation system, the solution with dissolved pollutants therein can then be supplied to roots of one or more plants supported by the biowall support structure. At least a portion of the dissolved pollutants supplied to the roots can be metabolized, for example, by bacteria at the roots of the plants. For example, the pollutants can include volatile organic compounds (VOCs). In some embodiments, the biowall can be constructed as a self-supporting, stand-alone unit.
