A method of treating final products from a flue gas desulfurization. The flue gas desulfurization is carried out by the absorption of sulfur oxide in a spray dryer with a suspension which contains lime, or in a reactor with a dry, fine-grained, absorbent which contains lime. Prior to desulfurization, the fly ash carried along by the flue gas which is to be desulfurized is separated entirely, partially, or not at all from the flue gas, and the final products from the flue gas desulfurization, prior to any further treatment thereof, amount to 1-99% by weight, preferably 1-70% by weight, of fly ash, and 1-99% by weight, preferably 30-99% by weight, of the sum of the desulfurization products, preferably calcium sulfite hemihydrate, and/or calcium sulfite, and/or calcium sulfate dyhydrate, and/or calcium sulfate hemihydrate, and/or calcium sulfate, as well as residue of the absorbent. The reduction of the amount of calcium sulfite is implemented by a dry oxidation with air.

Method of treating final products from flue gas desulfurization

A byproduct recovered in a dry flue gas desulfurization method for the production of fly ash cement. The flue gas, which results from the combustion of fossil fuel and which also carries along all or a part of the fly ash which results during the combustion, is treated in an absorber with a calcium-containing suspension (absorbing substance) in such a way that the solid materials leave the absorber as dry end product and are added entirely or partially to one or more dust removing apparatuses and are filtered off. The byproduct has a composition of 1 to 99% by weight, preferably 20 to 95% by weight, of fly ash, and 1 to 99% by weight, preferably 5 to 80% by weight, of the sum of the desulfurization products, preferably comprising calcium sulfate dihydrate and/or calcium sulfate hemihydrate and/or calcium sulfate and/or calcium sulfite hemihydrate.
