The following combustion processes may be a subject of EBFGT
application:
● Energy and heat generation
● Oil refineries
● Waste incinerators (municipal and medical)
● Cement and concrete production
● Metal production (ore sintering)
● And others.
Potential processes suitable for application of
electron beam flue gas treatment technology
Basis of electron beam flue gas
treatment technology
Some history
• Early phase (Japan, 1970s)
• Pilot plants phase (Japan, USA, Germany, Poland 1980s,
1990s)
• Industrial plants phase (China, Poland, late 90s)
• Recent attempts (China, Bulgaria, Middle East)
Present operating plant:
• EBFGT at Pomorzany Power Station, Poland
• New facilities under construction

Pollutants removed by EB method
The method has been designed for simultaneous removal of:
• SO2
• NOx
Also there proceeds removal of other pollutants as:
• HCl, HF etc.
• Volatile Organic Hydrocarbons (VOC)
• Dioxins
• Others…
Advantages of EBFGT technology
• Simultaneous removal of SO2 and NOx,
multi-pollution control system
• High removal efficiency
• High flexibility of installation
• Dry process
• Wasteless process, usable by-product
• Simple facility construction
• Easy retrofitting
Industrial demonstrational flue gas treatment plant
EPS Pomorzany, Poland
EPS Pomorzany – general view
Main operational data
• Flue gas flow rate 100 000 - 270 000 Nm3/h
• Pollutants removal efficiency:
95 % SO2
70 % NOx
• Total accelerators power: 1.04 MW
• Inlet flue gas parameters:
temperature 130 – 150°C
SO2 concentration 1500 – 2200 mg/Nm3
NOx concentration 400 – 600 mg/Nm3
• Ammonia water consumption: 150 – 300 kg/h
• By-product yield: 200 – 300 kg/h
The scheme of industrial installation
EPS Pomorzany gas
cooling tower
Dry bottom spray cooler
adjusts temperature and
humidity to optimal
values for the process
EPS Pomorzany –
ammonia water tank
Ammonia is stored in the form
of 25% ammonia solution in
water. After evaporation
gaseous ammonia is injected to
flue gas ducts upstream the
reaction chamber. Ammonia
water can be also sprayed
straight to cooling tower.
EPS Pomorzany –
process vessel
Proper design of reaction
chamber results in high
efficiency of pollutants
removal
