NO _X and SO _X Flue Gas Treatment System Based on Sulfur-Enriched Organic Oil in Water Emulsion.

ABSTRACT: Nitrogen (NO _X ) and sulfur (SO _X ) oxides, the major gaseous pollutants emitted from fossil fuel combustion, have significant health and environmental concerns. Environmental regulations limit these pollutant emissions to tolerable levels. Currently, these pollutants are treated by flue gas desulfurization (SO _X removal) and selective catalytic reduction (NO _X removal) processes. However, these technologies require large footprints, use expensive catalysts, and operate under high working temperatures. A new catalyst is reported herein, based on sulfur-enriched oil emulsified with water, where the active catalytic species are sulfur-based oxides. The catalyst has been developed using O₂ as the oxidation reag
