Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021225436A1] A method of scavenging alkali from flue gas comprises the steps of - introducing oxygen-comprising gas and a solid fuel comprising biomass into a combustion chamber to incinerate said solid fuel resulting in a flue gas comprising alkali, and - introducing an additive material comprising i) clay and ii) a calcium compound into the flue gas. To reduce the operational costs, the additive is added as a powder which comprises both meta-kaolin as the clay and calcium oxide as the calcium compound. An additive powder particle is an aggregate of micro-particles and a micro-particle of the additive powder particle is a micro-aggregate comprising both the meta-kaolin and the calcium oxide.
