SUNCOKE TECHNOLOGY AND DEVELOPMENT LLC

A system for capturing carbon dioxide from flue gas produced by a coke oven includes a coke oven system and a capture system. The coke oven is configured to process coal to produce coke and a flue gas comprising carbon dioxide. The coke oven includes an induced draft fan positioned downstream of the coke oven. The induced draft fan is configured to provide a vacuum to the coke oven and move the flue gas away from the coke oven. The coke oven system also includes a stack open to atmosphere and downstream of the induced draft fan. The capture system is fluidically coupled to the coke oven system at a point between the coke oven and the stack. The capture system is configured to remove carbon dioxide from the flue gas.

The present technology is generally directed to systems and methods for removing mercury from emissions. More specifically, some embodiments are directed to systems and methods for removing mercury from exhaust gas in a flue gas desulfurization system. In one embodiment, a method of removing mercury from exhaust gas in a flue gas desulfurization system includes inletting the gas into a housing and conditioning an additive. In some embodiments, conditioning the additive comprises hydrating powder-activated carbon. The method further includes introducing the conditioned additive into the housing and capturing mercury from the gas.

Systems and apparatuses for neutralizing acidic compounds in flue gases emitted from a heat recovery coke oven. A representative system includes a spray dry absorber having a barrel that includes a plurality of wall plates that form sidewalls of the barrel. The wall plates include a steel plate and a corrosion resistant alloy cladded to the steel plate and the wall plates are oriented such that the corrosion resistant alloy faces toward and is in fluid communication with an interior area of the barrel. The alloy is resistant to corrosion caused by the acidic compounds in the flue gas and can prevent the steel plate from being corroded by these acidic compounds.
