Abstract: The invention relates to the technical field of the treatment of exhaust gases containing sulfur oxides, especially exhaust gases from technical combustion plants, the so-called flue gases, or exhaust gases from technical processes, such as steel production (e.g. blast furnace gases, etc.) Especially, the invention relates to a method for the treatment of exhaust gases containing sulfur oxides, in particular from technical combustion plants, such as flue gases, or from technical processes, for the purpose of removing and/or separating off the sulfur oxides or for the purpose of reducing the sulfur oxide content, as well as a system for carrying out the method.

Abstract: A powder comprises a mixture of up to 40 weight percent activated cokes and inert materials. In the mixture, at least one of the inert material components is matched in terms of its grain size distribution to the grain size distribution of the activated coke component so that in a gas medium at rest, the speed of vertical descent of the coarse grain of the inert material component is substantially equal to the speed of vertical descent of the coarse grain of the activated coke component.

Abstract: A powdered medium for the cleaning of exhaust gases, e,g.
