Making the most of biomass – But who has the money to burn?

Q. Biomass – is that the same as energy-from-waste? A. Yes, it actually is. Biomass is sourced from a wide variety of raw materials, and while it has its positive aspects, environmental regulations require that the generated flue gases have to be treated.

Q. How so? A. In a Dry Sorbent Injection system, sodium sorbents react quickly to control or reduce multi-pollutants such as SO 2 , SO 3 , HCl and HF and allow for fuel flexibility. Easily dosed in the air duct, sodium sorbents in DSI can keep biomass facilities regulatory- compliant with the least amount of sorbent.

Q. Been doing this for long? A. Well, we’ve been treating flue gas emissions in biomass globally for more than 30 years, so we are a good resource of information. You can access solvair.us for documentation on air pollution control methods, industries served, targeted pollutants, sodium products used for control or elimination of SO 2 , SO 3 and HCl in flue gas, and materials, including brochures, videos and technical documents.
