BIO, ABSTRACTS and PHOTO – April 14, 2011

BIO: Karin Madsen, M.Sc, Chem. Eng, is working in Environmental Catalysis in the R&D Department at Haldor Topsøe A/S. The focus of her work the last three years has been mercury chemistry in flue gases, especially across SCR-catalyst.  

ABSTRACT: This presentation will discuss the effect of various operating conditions, flue gas compositions and catalyst type/formulation on mercury oxidation across SCR catalyst. The discussion is based on a kinetic study that has been carried out a Haldor Topsøe A/S. In the same context, the measures necessary to meet 91% mercury retention as proposed by the EPA is covered.
