A gas purification device removes a part of ammonia contained in a first gas; recovers a first off-gas containing the removed ammonia, removes hydrogen sulfide and ammonia from a second gas produced by removing the part of ammonia, recovers a second off-gas containing the removed hydrogen sulfide and ammonia, and combusts the first off-gas and the second off-gas. The gas purification device includes: a first combustion chamber in which combustion is performed in a reducing atmosphere; a second combustion chamber in which combustion is performed in a reducing atmosphere downstream of the first combustion chamber; and a third combustion chamber in which combustion is performed in an oxidizing atmosphere downstream of the second combustion chamber. The first off-gas flows into the first combustion chamber and the second off-gas flows into the third combustion chamber.

A wet abatement system which can suppress the accumulation of foreign matters in a treatment gas line is proposed. There is provided a wet abatement system for detoxifying treatment gas by bringing the treatment gas into contact with liquid. The wet abatement system includes an inlet casing having an inlet port from which the treatment gas is let in and an outlet port provided below the inlet port and through which the treatment gas flows, and a liquid film forming device provided between the inlet port and the outlet port and configured to form a liquid film on an inner wall surface of the inlet casing. A heater configured to heat the inlet casing is embedded in an interior of a wall portion of the inlet casing, the wall portion constituting a portion situated above the liquid film forming device.

A process of removing contaminants and concentrating wastewater includes delivering wastewater from a source of wastewater to a hydrogen sulfide removal device, mixing an oxidant with the filtered wastewater in the hydrogen sulfide removal device to produce a hydrogen sulfide lean effluent, delivering the hydrogen sulfide lean effluent to a direct contact concentrator, and evaporating a portion of the hydrogen lean effluent in the direct contact evaporator to produce a slurry and an exhaust gas.

The present invention describes methods for absorbing a targeted chemical compound from a gas stream into a scrubbing solution for various uses and with various benefits. Methods are described to produce a gas stream that can be further processed with operational benefits, such as through condensing and wastewater treatment with a lower load on the wastewater treatment system. Methods are described for adsorbing the targeted compound with reduced condensation of water from the gas stream. Methods are described for producing a liquid stream comprising an absorbed form of the targeted compound for use as a saleable product, such as adsorbing ammonia for the production of a fertilizer, wherein the concentration of the absorbed form may be increased through reduced condensation from the gas stream. Methods are described for producing a lower volume liquid waste stream from the absorption process through the use of reduced condensation of the gas stream.

An FGC conditioning agent injection-control system, where conditioning agent over- or under-injection can be prevented while maximizing a precipitator's performance. The injection rate is typically regulated using feed forward signal proportional to the coal flow, which could be represented by the boiler load augmented by a feedback from the voltage control and electrical conditions in the ESP, sulfur dioxide emissions signaling any changes in the coal quality, opacity monitor data, and other parameters. Both the feed forward and the feedback information and signals from the existing injection skids are analyzed, and the optimal injection rate for the current conditions is determined. With fast, continuous and automatic sampling and analysis, the system responds quickly as each parameter changes, recalculating the optimal injection rate and automatically sends the new injection set-point to the injection skid.
