Abstract: Cette invention concerne des procédés pour réduire les niveaux d'émissions pendant les périodes instables telles que le démarrage, destinés à être utilisés dans un système de désulfuration par épurateur à sec. Une poudre d'hydroxyde de calcium sèche est injectée dans le circuit des gaz et hydratée dans le séchoir par atomisation/absorbeur. La poudre hydratée obtenue est ensuite déposée sur les sacs filtrants du dépoussiéreur. Ceci peut être effectué à des températures plus basses que celles auxquelles opère normalement le séchoir par atomisation/absorbeur, permettant à la désulfuration de se produire plus tôt dans le processus de combustion, par exemple, lors du démarrage d'un système de combustion à froid à température ambiante. Le fonctionnement du système de combustion peut également être soutenu, composé, corrigé, ou augmenté en fonction des diverses conditions de fonctionnement.
