IPC: B01D53/64
Filed: 1999-05-03
Abstract: The invention is directed to a process for oxidizing gaseous pollutants in a flue gas stream composed of flue gases, water vapour and one or more gaseous pollutants selected from the group consisting of SO2, NO, NO2, H2S, and mercury vapour, the oxidized form of the pollutants being more readily removable from the flue gas stream by water absorption than the non-oxidized form thereof, comprising: (a) injecting sufficient chlorine in a gaseous form, a liquid form, or as a chlorine water solution, into the flue gas stream while the flue gas stream is at a temperature greater than 100° C. to thereby react the chlorine with the pollutants and permitting the flue gas stream/chlorine mixture to react for a sufficient time to enable a significant amount of oxidation of the pollutants to occur, whereby an oxidized flue gas, stream comprising flue gases, water vapour and oxidized gaseous pollutants is formed; (b) scrubbing the oxidized flue gas stream with water, or water solution of pH less than or equal to 7; and (c) adding sufficient alkali metal iodide salt to the water to precipitate the mercury from the water or water solution of pH less than or equal to 7.

Patent HK-1046524-A1 (HK)
Title: A system and method for refuse collection
Inventor: CEDERBORG PER
IPC: B65G53/14
Filed: 2002-11-08
Abstract: This invention is mainly concerned with a vacuum refuse collection system in which refuse chutes (CH) are connected to a transport pipe system through respective discharge valves (DV), and in which communication between a refuse chute and the transport pipe system is established by opening the discharge valve of the refuse chute. The idea according to the invention is to partition discharge valves, and hence corresponding refuse chutes, into groups (G1-G5) and perform controlled emptying of refuse by opening discharge valves on a group basis. More particularly, the control system selects one group at a time for opening of discharge valves within the selected group. In this way, the utilization of the available resources in a vacuum refuse collection system is substantially improved, thus resulting in an efficient and reliable system. The above solution has turned out to be particularly efficient for larger systems, especially in combination with level-controlled emptying.
