Claim Text:
1. A system for reducing emissions, comprising: a gas turbine that produces an exhaust gas comprising at least one of nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, hydrogen sulfide, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, formaldehyde, benzene, metal oxides, or volatile organic compound emissions; an exhaust plenum downstream from the gas turbine wherein the exhaust plenum receives the exhaust gas from the gas turbine; means for dispersing a solvent in the exhaust plenum; a collection tank in fluid communication with the exhaust plenum to receive the solvent from the exhaust plenum; a heat source in the exhaust plenum downstream from the means for dispersing the solvent in the exhaust plenum; a reduction catalytic converter located downstream from the turbine and upstream of the means for dispersing solvent; an ammonia injection grid disposed upstream of the reduction catalytic convertor; and wherein the exhaust plenum includes an exhaust stack portion that extends vertically upwardly and is vented to the environment, wherein the exhaust gases flow vertically upwardly through the exhaust stack portion and wherein the means for dispersing a solvent in the exhaust plenum is disposed within the exhaust stack portion proximate to an outlet of the exhaust stack portion to inject solvent radially inward towards exhaust gas.
