Abstract: A shield arrangement, breaking hammer and method of protecting body of a breaking hammer is provided. The shield arrangement includes a shield element, which is mounted to the body by means of a separate sleeve-like element passing through an opening of the shield element. The sleeve-like element is a tool bushing, which also provides support for a breaking tool.

Abstract: A method is provided for cleaning a combustion exhaust gas containing impurities, such as sulfur oxides and hydrochloric acid, with an additive, such as calcium hydroxide, in a reactor. The combustion gas is passed into a wetting zone where water is injected into the gas. The wet combustion gas is then passed through additive injection zone where the additive is co-currently injected into the combustion gas at a location near the bottom of the injection zone. The additive injection zone is connected to the top of the wetting zone and expands conically outward from the gas discharge outlet of the wetting zone so that as the combustion gas (and additive) travel upward through the additive injection zone the velocity of the combustion gas (and additive) is decreased. The combustion gas and additive are then passed through a cylindrical section having a uniform diameter of a given height and connected to the top of the additive injection zone.
