Abstract
The flue gas treatment by electron beam irradiation with the blowing o f slaked-lime powder was tested in the pilot plant built at a municipa l waste incinerator. The flue gas containing NOX, SO2 and HCl was irra diated by electron beam with slaked-lime powder (Ca(OH)(2)). Approxima tely 70 % of NOX, and 100 % of SO2 and HCl in the flue gas were remove d by the irradiation at a dose of 10 kGy at 150 degrees C with two sto ichiometric amount of slaked-lime powder. Lower irradiation temperatur e and increased amounts of the powder resulted in higher removal rates of NOx.
