Operational experience of the industrial plant for electron beam flue gas treatment

Organic Pollutants Treatment from Air Using Electron Beam Generated Nonthermal Plasma – Overview

“…More than 1000 accelerators haven been used in the field of radiation chemistry and radiation processing (Zimek, 1995). The reduction of SO 2 and NOx pollutants from flue gases, emitted during fuel combustion in electrical power and heat production, is one of the radiation process which were successfully demostrated in industrail scale in electric power station (EPS) Pomorzany, Szczecin, Poland (Chmielewski et al, 2004a) . A basic principle of an accelerator is that the electric field acts on electrons as charged particles and give them energy equal to the voltage difference accross the acceleration gap.…”

Plasma-Based Depollution of Exhausts: Principles, State of the Art and Future Prospects

“…A dose of up to 10 kGy (1 kGy = 1 kJ/kg flue gas) is required for NOx removal, while SO 2 can be removed in proper conditions at lower energy consumption. Nowadays most technical problems occurred in the prototype installations has been solved (Chmielewski et al, 2004). …”

Modeling study of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans behavior in flue gases under electron beam irradiation

“…(Frank, 1995). Originally developed in pilot-scale conditions (Kawamura et al, 1981;Jordan, 1988), it has been implemented at full-scale in industrial plants (Doi et al, 2000;Chmielewski et al, 2004).…”
