Abstract
This invention provides a flue gas treating system and process which include a counterflow absorption tower and which can reduce the ammonia concentration in the treated flue gas to a low level. This system includes an absorbing fluid tank (21) which is installed separately from an absorption tower tank (1) and into which the absorbing fluid after coming into gas-liquid contact with untreated flue gas in an absorption tower (2) and before flowing down into the absorption tower tank (1) is introduced; first injection means for injecting the absorbing fluid within the absorption tower tank (1) into the absorption tower (2) at a first position above the flue gas inlet section (3) thereof so as to bring this absorbing fluid into gas-liquid contact with the untreated flue gas; and second injection means for injecting the absorbing fluid within the absorbing fluid tank (21) into the absorption tower (2) at a second position above the first position so as to bring this absorbing fluid into gas-liquid contact with the untreated flue gas prior to the absorbing fluid within the absorption tower tank (1).
