- Title
Halogenated activated carbon reduces mercury emissions from a coal-fired plant.
- Abstract
The article reports that the Littleton, Colorado-based ADA-ES Inc.'s halogenated activated carbon (AC) had reduced more than 90% of mercury emissions during its first full-test on a coal-fired power plant. The results indicated that the said plant had burned a western coal, which differed to bituminous char because it contained less chlorine and other oxidants for mercury oxidation. Jean Bustard, chief operating officer, said that the company's problem on carbon emissions was solved using halogen-doped AC.
