The sulfuric acid and/or nitric acid is/are then removed from the gaseous carbon dioxide to produce SO-free, NO-lean carbon dioxide gas. The invention has particular application in the removal of SOand/or NOfrom carbon dioxide flue gas produced in an oxyfuel combustion process, for example, in a pulverized coal fired power station.
