ABSTRACT:
A wet, calcium-based flue gas desulfurization process conducted under inhibited oxidation conditions and in the presence of at least one organic acid which both enhances the efficiency of sulfur dioxide removal and modifies the crystal habit of calcium sulfite crystals to produce large, thick, regular, easily dewatered calcium sulfite hemihydrate byproduct solids is provided. The addition of an organic acid, preferably a carboxylic acid, to the flue gas desulfurization process produces calcium sulfite crystals that closely resemble calcium sulfate or gypsum crystals in settling and dewatering properties.
