A dry process for desulfurization of a power plant flue gas recovers, e.g. from an electrostatic precipitator, the solids which include unreacted absorbent, absorption reaction product and fly ash, and recycles at least part of this recovered solid product to contact with the flue gas for further absorption.

Process for the dry removal of sulfur dioxide from flue gas

A method of and an apparatus for the desulfurization of the flue gases from a fossil fuel power plant. A particulate absorbent is contacted with the flue gases in a dry desulfurization step, particulates being then separated from the flue gas and being utilized in part as a secondary absorbent in a subsequent scrubbing of the flue gas. The sludge from the wet scrubbing is combined with the remainder of the dried particles from the separator to form a settable composition.

Method of removing sulfur dioxide and other toxic and noxious components

An absorbent for the dry removal of sulfur dioxide and other noxious and toxic components from a combustion flue gas which consists essentially of at least one finely divided alkaline-earth compound and an additive selected from the group which consists of at least one carboxylic acid or an alkali metal, alkaline-earth metal or ammonium salt thereof.
