ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and process for removing regulated pollutants and other contaminants from a flowing gas stream between a scrubber and an exhaust stack. The apparatus comprises a vessel having a heater chamber, an adsorbent chamber and a filter chamber. The vessel inlet receives the gas stream from the scrubber and the vessel outlet discharges clean gas to the exhaust stack. A heater in the heater chamber heats the incoming gas stream to lower the relative humidity. The gas stream then passes through granular adsorbent material located in the adsorbent chamber to remove contaminants remaining after the wet scrubber. From the adsorbent chamber the gas stream flows into the filter chamber where filters remove entrained particulate matter prior to discharge to the exhaust stack. The process of the present invention includes the above-described steps.
