Heavy Metals are liberated during the combustion of any kind of fossil fuels. In case of waste combustion, also the presence of Dioxins must be taken into account and adequately treated.

Both for Dioxin and Heavy Metal abatement, sorbent injection is considered as the reference process in case high efficiencies are requested.

Dioxins can also be treated in a pure catalytic way by simple contact between the polluted flue gas and a specific catalyst, where a surface reaction occurs.

Significant reduction efficiencies can be achieved both for Dioxins and Heavy Metals; the selection of the best process depends on several parameters, like Fuel Type and Characteristics, type of Flue Gas Treatment to be installed for other pollutants, availability and cost of reagents, possibility to dispose of the residues, etc.

Termokimik has the adequate expertise and know-how to study the best solution for any application and to propose the most cost effective configuration to reduce Dioxins and Heavy Metals.
