Abstract: A sorbent activation plate having a first surface, a second surface opposite the first surface, a plurality of reliefs in the first surface, and a plurality of protrusions on the second surface. The sorbent activation plate is structured to attach to a boiler tube such that the plurality of protrusions contact the boiler tube and offset the second surface from the boiler tube.

Abstract: An inlet air filtration system for a gas turbine includes, in an exemplary embodiment, an air plenum, and a plurality of filter elements mounted inside the air plenum, with each filter element including a support structure. The inlet air filtration system also includes a plurality of electrodes positioned proximate the plurality of filter elements, where the electrodes are coupled to a power source which supplies a voltage to the electrodes. The voltage is sufficient to establish an electrostatic field between the electrodes and the filter elements, and is sufficient to produce a corona discharge from the electrodes, wherein an amount of current applied to the filter elements is about 0.1 ?A/ft2 to about 15 ?A/ft2.

Abstract: A system for removing mercury from combustion gas. The system includes a combustion device, a stack, and a duct system that couples the combustion device to the stack. The system further comprises an injection system that is coupled to the duct system. The injection system injects sorbents including alkali-based sorbents and carbon-based sorbents into the duct system.
