Features: Based on a comprehensive collection of domestic and international new technologies in flue gas desulfurization and the authors' practical experience in managing power plant flue gas desulfurization units for over ten years, this book systematically and comprehensively elaborates on wet limestone/lime flue gas desulfurization technology and related professional knowledge. The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides a detailed and systematic explanation of the principles and methods of flue gas desulfurization; important design parameters, process variables, and their interrelationships in the desulfurization system, as well as their impact on system performance; the functions, characteristics, and key parameters of major equipment in the system; desulfurization corrosion environments and material selection; system reliability; chemical monitoring; and construction, commissioning, and performance evaluation of desulfurization projects. The second part introduces the types, applications, key performance parameters, and layout methods of major equipment in flue gas desulfurization. It also discusses the considerations for the design and selection of major equipment under current process levels and applicable structural materials. The third part provides an in-depth discussion on the principles for selecting flue gas desulfurization processes; introduces the technical and economic evaluation system, evaluation indicators, and evaluation methods for processes; and presents the technical and economic evaluation methods for engineering bids. It also cites seven case studies of desulfurization projects that have been put into operation for reference when selecting flue gas desulfurization processes. Additionally, the appendix compiles the main standards, regulations, and specifications currently promulgated in China related to flue gas desulfurization for readers to reference. This book covers all aspects of flue gas desulfurization technology, with rich content, clear structure, strong comprehensiveness, and a combination of engineering practical experience. It provides valuable information for engineering technicians engaged in flue gas desulfurization to gain more insights both theoretically and practically. It is a technical manual that provides a detailed introduction to wet limestone/lime flue gas desulfurization technology, with strong practicality and reference value. This book is suitable for engineering technicians working in power plant flue gas desulfurization, other industrial waste gas treatment, environmental monitoring, industrial management, and research institutions, as well as for reference by university teachers and students.
