Abstract: A method and apparatus for treating an exhaust or waste gas stream to remove pollutants from the gas stream using gas stabilization to allow the cleaned gas stream to be discharged directly to atmosphere. The apparatus includes at least three treatment stations for treating the gas stream in sequence, in which one of the treatment stations is a wet reactor containing a nucleating or precipitating liquids for removing the unwanted material as a solid and for oxygenating the gas stream to remove any residual unwanted material, and another of the treatment stations is a gas compressing stage for compressing the gas stream. The advantage of the method and apparatus is that the treated gas steam can be discharged directly to atmosphere with reduced amounts of pollutants.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for treating an exhaust or waste gas stream using Silic Pollution Reduction System (SPRS) is provided to remove at least one unwanted material to clean the exhaust or waste gas stream by gas stabilisation to allow the cleaned gas stream to be discharged directly to atmosphere. The apparatus includes at least three treatment stations for treating the exhaust or waste gas stream in sequence, in which at least one treatment station is a wet reactor containing a nucleating or precipitating liquid for removing the unwanted material as a solid and for oxygenating the remaining gas stream from which the unwanted material has been removed, and at least one treatment station is or has a gas compressing stage or component for compressing the gas stream being treated. The advantage of the method and apparatus is that the treated gas stream can be discharged directly to atmosphere with reduced amounts of pollutants.
