THE SOLVAir® BREEZE - February 2016

Up in the air about lime vs sodium DSI products for acid gas removal?

The use of lime products for flue gas treatment is often a popular air pollution

control choice. However, trona or sodium bicarbonate used in a Dry Sorbent Injection system(DSI) may be more cost-effective and an overall better choice to help your plant reach compliance.

The benefits of using a dry sodium product in DSI include reduced product consumption, thus reduced fly ash; effective multi-pollutant mitigation; elimination of lime-related caking, resulting in reduced maintenance costs; and acid gas removal at a wider temperature range.

At SOLVAir® Solutions, we work with our customers to help them make the right choice for their plants. Contact us today at 800.765.8292 for more information on how we can help in the decision-making process.
