ABSTRACT:
Injection of additive such as ammonia or calcium compounds along with a small amount of hydrocarbon, preferably methane or natural gas, in a relatively high temperature region of the effluent stream for effectively reducing pollutants such as NO.sub.x and SO.sub.x. Preferably, injection is achieved by atomization of a liquid-form additive or additive solution with a small amount of gaseous hydrocarbon.
