Biomass
Flue gas cleaning solutions for Biomass-fired power plants is a growing sector of business for Lodge Cottrell.
Biomass-fired power plants can be designed for a wide range of fuels including multi-fuels, straw, wood-waste, peat, bark nut shells, grains and short rotation crops which can be combined with coal or natural gas.
Flue gas cleaning systems involved in Biomass combustion and gasification can be composed of anumber of Lodge Cottrell processes.

Typical Systems for Biomass and Waste-to-Energy plants can include: Dry flue gas cleaning plant - a dry absorber followed by a Pulse-Jet fabric filter, an electrostatic precipitator, or both. Semi-dry flue gas cleaning plant - a Gas Suspension Absorber - followed by an electrostatic precipitator or, more often, a Pulse-Jet fabric filter. Wet flue gas cleaning plant consisting of a scrubber - a Wet Absorber followed by a dust filter, more often an electrostatic precipitator.		Waste-to-Energy Waste incinerator plants for municipal and hazardous waste are required to meet very strict environmental standards on flue gas emission control. Lodge Cottrell has a range of flue gas cleaning systems that are very flexible allowing for combinations of different processes to be employeddepending upon the demands of the individual plants.
