The cooled and treated flue gas exits the SDA and is directed to a particulate collector, typically a fabric filter. The particulate collector is designed and operated as an integral part of the acid gas removal process as the solids continue to react with SO 2, SO 3, HCl and HF in the humidified flue gas.

What is Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD)? FGD is a set of technologies used to remove Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) from exhaust flue gases in coal, oil-fired, and waste- to-energy power stations. SO2 is a pollutant/irritant in air and a major contributor in the creation of acid rain. SO2 emissions are subject to strict environmental protection regulations.
