Unlabelled: This article presents the results of an industrial-scale study (on 400 MW lignite fired unit) of simultaneous NO, SO, and Hg removal in FGD absorber with oxidant injection (NaClO) into flue gas. It was confirmed that the injection of sodium chlorite upstream the FGD (Flue Gas Desulfurization) absorber oxidize NO to NO, Hg to Hg, and enhancing NO and Hg removal efficiency from exhaust gas in FGD absorber. Mercury removal efficiency grows with the rise of degree of oxidation NO to NO and was limited by the phenomenon of re-emission. For NO removal the most critical parameters is slurry pH and temperature. There was no negative effect on sulfur dioxide removal efficiency caused by oxidant injection in tested FGD absorber. Based on the data provided, NO and Hg emissions can be reduced by adjusting the FGD absorber operating parameters combined with oxidant injection.

Implications: The emissions of nitrogen oxides and mercury from coal combustion have great influence of environment and human health. The injection of sodium chlorite upstream the FGD absorber oxidize NO to NO, Hg to Hg and enhancing NOx and HgT removal efficiency from flue gas.

Escalating SOx and NOx emissions from industrial plants necessitates customized scrubbing solutions to improve removal efficiency and tackle cost limitations in existing wet FGD units. This work investigates the real-time intensified removal pathways via an innovative two-stage countercurrent spray tower configuration strategically integrating NaOH (M) and NaOH/NaClO (M/M) to remove SOx and NOx emissions simultaneously from the industrial stack through a comprehensive parametric study of absorbents concentration, reaction temperature, gas flow rate, liquid to gas ratio (F/F), and absorbent showering head. Flue gas stream comprising SO bearing 4500 ppm, SO bearing 300 ppm, 70 ppm NO, and 50 ppm NO brought into contact with two scrubbing solutions as M, and a complex absorbent of M/M at varying respective ratios.

Wheat leaf rust fungus is an obligate parasitic fungus that can absorb nutrients from its host plant through haustoria and secrete effector proteins into host cells. The effector proteins are crucial factors for pathogenesis as well as targets for host disease resistance protein recognition. Exploring the role of effector proteins in the pathogenic process of () is of great significance for unraveling its pathogenic mechanisms.

Flue gas desulfurization (FGD) is a critical process for reducing sulfur dioxide (SO) emissions from industrial sources, particularly power plants. This research uses calcium silicate absorbent in combination with machine learning (ML) to predict SO concentration within an FGD process. The collected dataset encompasses four input parameters, specifically relative humidity, absorbent weight, temperature, and time, and incorporates one output parameter, which pertains to the concentration of SO.

Carbon-based catalysts have been extensively used for flue gas desulfurization (FGD) and have exerted great importance in controlling SO emissions over the past decades. However, many fundamental details about the nature of the active sites and desulfurization mechanism still remain unclear. Here, we reported the experimental and theoretical identifications of active sites in FGD on carbon catalysts.
