Linked from

The 14 pages that link to Flue-gas desulfurization, each with the reason it gives.

• CombustionRelated: It reduces a major air pollutant from industrial combustion.

• LimestoneRelated: Ground limestone captures sulfur dioxide in power-plant exhaust systems.

• SulfurRelated: Power plants use it to reduce sulfur pollution from burning sulfur-containing fuels.

• Sulfur dioxideCompared with: These controls reduce SO₂ emissions from power plants and other combustion sources.

• Calcium hydroxideRelated: Calcium hydroxide can capture sulfur dioxide, producing calcium sulfite or sulfate compounds.

• Coal-fired power stationRelated: Scrubbers reduce sulfur dioxide released by burning sulfur-containing coal.

• Sulfur cycleRelated: These systems interrupt a major industrial route from fossil sulfur to atmospheric pollution.

• Electrostatic precipitatorRelated: It is often paired with particulate collection in power-plant exhaust treatment.

• Calcium oxideRelated: Calcium oxide or its hydrated form can capture sulfur dioxide in exhaust treatment.

• Air pollution controlBroader topic: It reduces sulfur dioxide emissions from boilers and power plants.

• Magnesium hydroxideRelated: Magnesium hydroxide can capture sulfur dioxide in exhaust-gas treatment systems.

• SulfiteRelated: Wet scrubbing can produce sulfite in the liquid treatment stream before further oxidation.

• Sulfurous acidRelated: Absorbed SO₂ forms sulfite and bisulfite species related to sulfurous acid chemistry.

• Base anhydrideRelated: Calcium oxide and its hydroxide product capture acidic sulfur compounds in some systems.
