CDS systems remove acidic gases by recirculating a mixture of partially reacted sorbent and fly ash to maximize contact with the flue gas. Solids captured in the filter are returned to the reactor, increasing reagent utilization. Water can be added to control temperature, and improve removal performance. This enhances gas‑solid interaction, significantly improving treatment performance while reducing overall sorbent consumption.
Key benefits
- Effective removal of SO2, SO3, HF, and HCl
- Reduced sorbent consumption through recirculation
- Less capital‑intensive than wet technologies
- Multi‑pollutant capability, when combined with activated carbon
Best-fit applications
Coal, biomass and waste‑to‑energy boilers, or any installation seeking high performance with optimized operating costs.
