Abstract
Sulfur dioxide is removed from a process gas by passing the process gas through a fragmented permeable mass of particles containing treated oil shale and including alkaline earth oxides. Water in the fragmented mass combines with alkaline earth oxides in the fragmented mass and sulfur dioxide in the process gas with resultant removal of sulfur dioxide from the process gas.
