SORBACAL® CDS: Exceeding waste incineration bref with further operational benefits
Waste incinerator - Belgium
The waste to energy plant, Biostoom Oostende, wanted to improve their FGT process efficiency. In particular, the SO2 removal performance to account for both transient high SO2 inlet peaks and higher S content in the fuel mix. See how Sorbacal® CDS achieved this but also provided significant additional benefits.
