Mercury Re-emission Control for WFGD

MerControl 8034 and 8034 Plus technologies are polymeric, organic additive that specifically binds with mercury to reduce mercury re-emission across w-FGDs. The two technologies are liquid applications used to enhance mercury removal in w-FGD scrubbers resulting in reduced stack emissions. Both chemistries have been shown to lower overall mercury emissions as well as remove mercury from the w-FGD liquor, all without adversely affecting the w-FGD gypsum by-product. MerControl 8034 Plus, the second generation product, has demonstrated improved efficacy at lower dosages.

What is Mercury Re-Emission

Oxidized mercury is soluble in water and can be removed from the flue gas by the presence of a w-FGD. For certain w-FGDs, when oxidized mercury enters the scrubber it is reduced to elemental mercury which is not soluble, resulting in lower mercury capture efficiency and increased stack emissions. This phenomenon has been coined Mercury Re-emission and is defined as an increase in elemental mercury across the w-FGD scrubber.
