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.

Provided are a method for treating sulfur hexafluoride and an apparatus for collecting and treating by-products. The method for treating sulfur hexafluoride, and the apparatus for collecting and treating by-products according to the present invention are a significantly effective method and apparatus capable of safely treating sulfur hexafluoride at low cost.

Disclosed are a system and a method for desulfurization and denitrification of an alumina calcination flue gas, and a use. The system comprises an ozone generator, a red mud pre-impregnation slurry scrubbing tower, and a red mud pre-impregnation tank and a red mud pre-impregnation clear liquid scrubbing tower. NO.sub.x in a flue gas is oxidized into a high valence oxynitride by ozone, and with the red mud as an absorbent, the synergistic absorption of SO.sub.2 and NO.sub.x in the flue gas is achieved, while the dealkalization of the red mud is achieved. By means of the synergistic catalytic oxidation of metal ions such as Fe.sup.3+ in a red mud slurry and ozone, the synergistic absorption of sulfur and oxynitride is prompted; and the use of a structure of staged absorption in two towers overcomes the problem of the difficulty in absorbing NO.sub.2 with a low O.sub.3/NO.sub.x molar ratio.

An acid gas absorber includes a co-current flue gas-lean solution section and a packed counter-current flue gas-liquid phase section useful in a method of capturing an acid gas from flue gas in a more efficient and cost effective manner.

A biogas treatment process is integrated with a water treatment process to adjust the pH level of the water and to provide more effective disinfection of the water. A water wash process is utilized to separate methane and carbon dioxide present in the biogas. During the water wash process, the biogas is mixed with water and the carbon dioxide is absorbed into the water. Because the process typically occurs at an elevated pressure and reduced temperature to enhance the solubility of carbon dioxide in water, the water stream becomes supersaturated with carbon dioxide. This water stream, which is supersaturated with carbon dioxide, is provided to the water treatment process to adjust the pH level of the water treatment process. The pH level is regulated to a desired level such that an increased relative concentration of hypochlorous acid is produced when sodium hypochlorite is added to the treatment process.

The present disclosure provides a microbiological treatment system including a hydration system and microbiological degradation systems. The hydration system may include a gas-liquid mixing chamber, a gas inlet, a gas outlet, a liquid inlet, and a liquid outlet, the latter four being fluidly coupled to the chamber. The gas inlet is configured to introduce an ethylene oxide exhaust gas into the chamber to mix with an aqueous solution to form an ethylene oxide exhaust liquor. The liquid outlet is configured to discharge the ethylene oxide exhaust liquor. Each microbiological degradation system may include a degradation chamber containing degradation bacteria including one of anaerobic bacteria, facultative bacteria, or aerobic bacteria. The degradation chambers of the microbiological degradation systems may be in fluid communication sequentially in a predetermined degradation sequence, with the most upstream in the degradation sequence having a liquid inlet in fluid communication with the liquid outlet.
