Two Types <strong>of</strong> Air Pollutants<br />
Particulate (Visible)<br />
Gaseous
Stationary Source Control<br />
• Philosophy <strong>of</strong> pollution prevention (3P’s)<br />
– Modify the process: use <strong>different</strong> raw materials<br />
– Modify the process: increase efficiency<br />
– Recover and reuse: less waste = less pollution<br />
• Philosophy <strong>of</strong> end-<strong>of</strong>-pipe <strong>treatment</strong><br />
– Collection <strong>of</strong> waste streams<br />
– Add-on equipment at emission points<br />
• Control <strong>of</strong> stationary sources<br />
– Particulates<br />
– Gases<br />

Particulate Control<br />
(Mechanical)<br />
• Electrostatic precipitator<br />
• Bag house fabric filter<br />
• Wet scrubber<br />
• High efficiency cyclones
Particulate Control Technologies<br />
• Remember this order:<br />
– Settling chambers<br />
– Cyclones<br />
– ESPs (electrostatic<br />
precipitators)<br />
– Spray towers<br />
– Venturi scrubbers<br />
– Baghouses (fabric filtration)<br />
• All physical processes
Settling Chambers<br />
• “Knock-out pots”<br />
• Simplest, cheapest, no moving parts<br />
• Least efficient<br />
– large particles only<br />
• Creates solid-waste stream<br />
– Can be reused<br />

Gas Cleaning – The state <strong>of</strong> the art<br />
Evaluation <strong>of</strong> ESP for industrial boilers:<br />
• High cost (investment, maintenance & operation)<br />
• Complex large size plant <strong>with</strong> sub-systems<br />
• Requires constant gas conditions (sulphur, temp, moisture)<br />
Evaluation <strong>of</strong> bag filters for industrial boilers:<br />
• High cost (investment, maintenance & filter bags)<br />
• Difficult to handle sulphur and sparks<br />
• Not robust (one faulty bag destroys efficiency<br />
Evaluation <strong>of</strong> wet scrubbers for industrial boilers:<br />
• High cost (large water <strong>treatment</strong> plant)<br />
• Difficult to separate fine particulate<br />
• Sulphur control costly & difficult
Flue Gas Cleaning – The state <strong>of</strong> the art<br />
Evaluation <strong>of</strong> cyclone “grid arrestor” :<br />
• Low collection efficiency due to:<br />
• Wrong design (see velocity analysis)<br />
• Air ingress<br />
• Bad manufacturing quality<br />
• Lack <strong>of</strong> maintenance (blockage <strong>of</strong> cyclone cells)<br />
But cyclone system advantages are low cost and robust installation<br />
Can a cyclone reach efficiencies <strong>of</strong> ESP / Bag filter / Wet scrubber?<br />
This question triggered our cyclone development Program<br />
in 1994 to improve cyclone efficiency and to invent the<br />
“dry spray agglomeration principle”
• Most Common<br />
• Cheapest<br />
Cyclone<br />
• Most Adaptable
Mechanical Collectors –<br />
Cyclones<br />
Advantages: Good for larger PM<br />
Disadvantages: Poor efficiency for finer PM<br />
Difficult removing sticky or wet PM

About Baghouses<br />
Efficiency Up To 97+%<br />
(Cyclone Efficiency 70-90%)<br />
Can Capture Smaller Particles<br />
Than A Cyclone<br />
More Complex, Cost More To<br />
Maintain Than Cyclones

Electrostatic Precipitators<br />
Types include:<br />
• Dry, negatively charged<br />
• Wet-walled, negatively charged<br />
• Two-stage, positively charged
• ELECTROSTATIC PRECIPITATOR<br />
• Advantages <strong>of</strong> Electrostatic Precipitators<br />
� Electrostatic precipitators are capable very high efficiency, generally <strong>of</strong><br />
the order <strong>of</strong> 99.5-99.9%.<br />
� Since the electrostatic precipitators act on the particles and not on the <strong>air</strong>,<br />
they can handle higher loads <strong>with</strong> lower pressure drops.<br />
� They can operate at higher temperatures.<br />
� The operating costs are generally low.<br />
• Disadvantages <strong>of</strong> Electrostatic Precipitators<br />
� The initial capital costs are high.<br />
� Although they can be designed for a variety <strong>of</strong> operating conditions, they<br />
are not very flexible to changes in the operating conditions, once<br />
installed.<br />
� Particulate <strong>with</strong> high resistivity may go uncollected.

Electrostatic Precipitator Drawing
How An ESP Operates
ESPs<br />
• Electrostatic precipitator<br />
• More expensive to install,<br />
• Electricity is major operating cost<br />
• Higher particulate efficiency than<br />
cyclones<br />
• Can be dry or wet<br />
• Plates cleaned by rapping<br />
• Creates solid-waste stream<br />

Wet Type<br />
• Venturi<br />
• Static packed<br />
• Moving bed<br />
• Tray tower<br />
• Spray towers
Scrubbers<br />
• Gas Contacts A Liquid Stream<br />
• Particles Are Entrained In<br />
The Liquid<br />
• May Also Be A Chemical<br />
Reaction<br />
–Example: Limestone Slurry<br />
With Coal Power Plant Flue Gas
Wet Particle Scrubbers<br />
• Particulate control by impaction,<br />
interception <strong>with</strong> water droplets<br />
• Can clean both gas and particle<br />
phases<br />
• High operating costs, high<br />
corrosion potential
• WET SCRUBBERS (CONTD.)<br />
• Advantages <strong>of</strong> Wet Scrubbers<br />
• Wet Scrubbers can handle incoming streams at high temperature, thus<br />
removing the need for temperature control equipment.<br />
� Wet scrubbers can handle high particle loading.<br />
� Loading fluctuations do not affect the removal efficiency.<br />
� They can handle explosive gases <strong>with</strong> little risk.<br />
� Gas adsorption and dust collection are handled in one unit.<br />
� Corrosive gases and dusts are neutralized.<br />
• Disadvantages <strong>of</strong> Wet Scrubbers<br />
� High potential for corrosive problems<br />
� Effluent scrubbing liquid poses a water pollution problem.

Tower Scrubber
Spray Towers<br />
• Water or other liquid “washes out” PM<br />
• Less expensive than ESP but more than<br />
cyclone, still low pressure drop<br />
• Variety <strong>of</strong> configurations<br />
• Higher efficiency than cyclones<br />
• Creates water pollution stream<br />
• Can also absorb some gaseous<br />
pollutants (SO 2)<br />

Gaseous Pollutant Control<br />
•Absorption<br />
•Adsorption<br />
•Combustion
Control <strong>of</strong> Air Pollutants<br />
Gaseous pollutants - Combustion<br />
• 3 types <strong>of</strong> combustion systems commonly<br />
utilised for pollution control<br />
– direct flame,<br />
– thermal, and<br />
– catalytic incineration systems
Control <strong>of</strong> Air Pollutants<br />
Gaseous pollutants - Adsorption<br />
• physical adsorption to solid surfaces<br />
• Reversible - adsorbate removed from the<br />
adsorbent by increasing temp. or lowering<br />
pressure<br />
• widely used for solvent recovery in dry<br />
cleaning, metal degreasing operations,<br />
surface coating, and rayon, plastic, and<br />
rubber processing
Control <strong>of</strong> Air Pollutants<br />
Gaseous pollutants - Adsorption<br />
• limited use in solving ambient <strong>air</strong> pollution<br />
problems – <strong>with</strong> its main use involved in the<br />
reduction <strong>of</strong> odour<br />
• Adsorbents <strong>with</strong> large surface area to<br />
volume ratio (activated carbon) preferred<br />
agents for gaseous pollutant control<br />
• Efficiencies to 99%
Carbon Adsorption<br />
• Will do demonstration shortly<br />
• Good for organics (VOCs)<br />
• Both VOCs and carbon can be<br />
recovered when carbon is<br />
regenerated (steam stripping)<br />
• Physical capture<br />
– Adsorption<br />
– Absorption<br />

Control <strong>of</strong> Air Pollutants<br />
Gaseous pollutants - Absorption<br />
• Scrubbers remove gases by chemical<br />
absorption in a medium that may be a liquid<br />
or a liquid-solid slurry<br />
• water is the most commonly used scrubbing<br />
medium<br />
• Additives commonly employed to increase<br />
chemical reactivity and absorption capacity
Pollutants Of Interest<br />
• Volatile Organic Compounds<br />
(VOC)<br />
• Nitrogen Oxides (NOx)<br />
• Sulfur Oxides (SOx)
Controlling Gaseous Pollutants: SO 2 &<br />
NO x<br />
• Modify Process (recall 3P’s)<br />
– Switch to low-sulfur coals<br />
– Desulfurize coal (washing, gasification)<br />
• Increase efficiency<br />
– Low-NO x burners<br />
• Recover and Reuse (heat)<br />
– staged combustion<br />
– flue-gas recirculation<br />
69
Scrubbers / Absorbers<br />
• SO 2 removal: “FGD” (flue gas desulfurization)<br />
– Lime/soda ash/citrate absorbing solutions<br />
– Can create useable by-product OR solid waste<br />
stream<br />
• NO x removal—catalytic and non-catalytic<br />
– Catalyst = facilitates chemical reaction<br />
– Ammonia-absorbing solutions<br />
– Process controls favored over this technology<br />
• CO & CO 2 removal<br />
• Some VOC removal<br />

Control Technologies for Nitrogen<br />
• Preventive<br />
– minimizing operating<br />
temperature<br />
– fuel switching<br />
– low excess <strong>air</strong><br />
– flue gas recirculation<br />
– lean combustion<br />
– staged combustion<br />
– low Nox burners<br />
– secondary combustion<br />
– water/steam injection<br />
Oxides<br />
• Post combustion<br />
– selective catalytic reduction<br />
– selective non-catalytic<br />
reduction<br />
– non-selective catalytic<br />
reduction
Thermal Oxidizers<br />
For VOC Control<br />
Also Called Afterburners
Thermal Oxidation<br />
• Chemical change = burn<br />
– CO 2 and H 2O ideal end products <strong>of</strong> all processes<br />
• Flares (for emergency purposes)<br />
• Incinerators<br />
– Direct<br />
– Catalytic = improve reaction efficiency<br />
– Recuperative: heat transfer between inlet /exit gas<br />
– Regenerative: switching ceramic beds that hold<br />
heat, release in <strong>air</strong> stream later to re-use heat<br />
