The absorption of nitric oxide fromflue gas streams presents some unique problems due to its low solubility in conventional scrubbing solutions. A process is being developed that utilizes an electrolytic cell to reduce Fe(ZZZ) to Fe(ZZ) and maintain the mujority of the iron chelate in the active ferrous state. This process has been tested on an actual flue gas stream and achieved 80% nitric oxide abatement. Further reduction of nitric oxide is possible with increased stages.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
