A promoted activated carbon sorbent is described that is highly effective for the removal of mercury from flue gas streams. The sorbent comprises a new modified carbon form containing reactive forms of halogen and halides. Optional components may be added to increase reactivity and mercury capacity. These may be added directly with the sorbent, or to the flue gas to enhance sorbent performance and/or mercury capture. Mercury removal efficiencies obtained exceed conventional methods. The sorbent can be regenerated and reused. Sorbent treatment and preparation methods are also described. New methods for in-flight preparation, introduction, and control of the active sorbent into the mercury contaminated gas stream are described.

A dust collecting system for single crystal growth system includes an air compressor, a dust collecting device, a first inert gas source, a rotary pump and a scrubber. The air compressor is fluidly connected to an exit pipe of the single crystal growth system. The exit pipe is used to exhaust unstable dust from the single crystal growth system. The dust collecting device is fluidly connecting to the exit pipe to collect the dust oxide. The first inert gas source is fluidly connected to the exit pipe to blow a first inert gas into the exit pipe to compel the dust oxide toward the dust collecting device. The rotary pump is fluidly connected to the dust collecting device. The scrubber is fluidly connected to the rotary pump. The rotary pump transports the residual dust oxide toward the scrubber. The present disclosure further provides a method for collecting dust.

An apparatus for treatment of gaseous pollutants, the apparatus comprising a reaction portion and a passage. The reaction portion comprises a gas inlet unit, a reaction unit, a combustion unit and a cooling unit. The passage comprises a transverse section, a connection section and a straight section, the transverse section is provided with a top gas inlet in communication with the reaction portion and a lateral gas inlet, the connection section is connected between the transverse section and the straight section, the top gas inlet receives an effluent passing through the reaction portion and then flowing downwards, the lateral gas inlet receives a transverse air flow, and the effluent is driven by the transverse gas flow to form a cyclone and is discharged from an outlet of the straight section by means of the connection section.

A method for collecting dust from a single crystal growth system includes providing dry air and oxygen into an exit pipe connecting to the single crystal growth system, blowing a first inert gas into the exit pipe to compel the dust oxide toward a dust collecting device, collecting the dust oxide by the dust collecting device; and providing a rotary pump to transport residues of the dust oxide backward. The oxygen reacts with the unstable dust for forming dust oxide. The exit pipe is used to exhaust unstable dust from the single crystal growth system.
