Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008156481A1] A mercury removal system and methods thereof include at least one supply system, at least one cooling system and at least one separation system The supply system is connected to introduce at least beneficiated fly ash particles into an exhaust stream The exhaust stream comprises at least one exhaust gas and mercury and at least a portion of the mercury in the exhaust stream adheres to the introduced beneficiated fly ash particles The cooling system cools the exhaust stream before or after the connection of the supply system to the exhaust stream The separation system separates from the exhaust stream and outputs at least a portion of the introduced beneficiated fly ash particles with the adhered mercury.
