The flue gas from sintering processes in steel plants contains dioxins and mercury, both of which are highly toxic pollutants. Before the flue gas can be released, these pollutants must often be reduced to meet stringent emission standards designed to protect human health and the environment. Many countries, including EU member states, have established strict regulations to control these emissions.

Based on extensive industry experience, CarbonFresh’s powdered activated carbon (PAC) solutions have been optimized for the following processes:

• Physical adsorption: Capturing dioxins and oxidized mercury through a specialized pore structure.

• Chemical conversion: Using impregnated activated carbons to convert elemental mercury into oxidized mercury for easier removal.

Key benefits of our powdered activated carbon products include:

• Exceptional removal efficiencies for both dioxins and mercury.

• Effective oxidation of elemental mercury using brominated activated carbon, when required.

All CarbonFresh products undergo rigorous safety assessments as per standard testing protocols, ensuring reliable and secure performance for industrial applications.

For new projects, CarbonFresh brings industry-leading expertise to support your needs. We can help you select the most suitable activated carbon, supply the product in appropriate packaging (including bulk deliveries for your silos), and provide expert system support for storage silos, dosing systems, and injection equipment.
