Abstract: The invention relates to a side wall rear component (14) for a passenger vehicle (13), having at least one outer wall (4) and at least one wall reinforcement (15) reinforcing the outer wall (4) on the inner side (5) thereof. In order to ensure that a front-side end portion of the side wall rear component (14), which shifts on the front side in the event of a rear-end collision, reliably pushes on the inside via a rear-side end portion of a vehicle door (3), which is arranged on a front side with respect to the side wall rear component (14), at least one sliding slope (17) is arranged on a front-side end portion (16) of the wall reinforcement (15), the front-side end of which sliding slope is spaced apart in a transverse direction (Y) of the vehicle further from an outer surface (18), which forms a vehicle outer skin portion, of the outer wall (4) than a rear-side end of the sliding slope (17).

Abstract: Gaseous contaminants, especially sulfur dioxide, sulfur trioxide, hydrogen chloride or hydrogen fluoride are removed from flue gases by chemisorption. A solid finely divided sorbent, before being brought into contact with the flue gas, is treated in a reactor with dry steam. The sorbent before introduction into the reactor is brought to a temperature of 10.degree. to 50.degree. C. below the dewpoint temperature of the steam in the reactor and the steam injected into the reactor is introduced at a temperature not more than 60.degree. C. above the dewpoint temperature, preferably 10.degree. to 40.degree. C. above the dewpoint temperature.
