Abstract
A method and a system () for reducing plant () gas emissions by reducing ammonia/ammonium ion content in waste water W prior to the waste water W being evaporated in an evaporator device (). As such, the method and the system () reduce the release of ammonia/ammonium ion into the flue gas FG stream thus reducing emissions of ammonia/ammonium ions to the environment or atmosphere and/or accumulation of ammonia/ammonium ions in downstream equipment such as a wet flue gas desulfurization system ().
