  • Catalytic adsorbents for mercury removal from flue gas and methods of manufacture therefor
    Publication number: 20060205592
    Abstract: The present invention provides catalytic adsorbents formed from doping activated carbon with a dispersed halide salt. The catalytic adsorbents provided herein are stable and harmless at room temperature, yet allow for chemical adsorption at elevated temperatures typical of those for flue gas streams. The present invention also provides methods of manufacturing the doped activated carbon adsorbents.
    Type: Application
