MERCURY REMOVAL
Elite AQ 1000 PAC
Coconut Granular Activated Carbon
Elite AQ 1000 PAC is a standard powdered activated carbon (PAC) product. The inherited surface area and pore volume of the base material make this product very effective in removing many flue gas contaminants.
PAC injection is currently recognized as the Best Available Control Technology (BACT) by the EPA for mercury removal from flue gas.
By injecting these powdered products directly into the flue gas stream, many contaminants such as mercury, dioxins, and furans can be captured. Existing combustion or incineration systems can be quickly and inexpensively retrofitted to permit the addition of Elite product line. This results in a treatment process that is simple to implement, reliable, and cost-effective. Removal of the powdered activated carbon is easily accomplished using existing particle ma er devices and can be landfilled with ash as non-hazardous material.
Since this product is a devolatilized activated carbon, Its use results in consistently low-level flue gas emissions over a wide range of temperatures.
