Midwest Energy Emissions Corp. (ME2C) has launched a new product to its proven, cost-effective mercury capture program that will reduce mercury emissions by preventing scrubber reemission events.
The product is specifically designed for coal-fired power utilities with wet scrubbers to help remove mercury, as well as other metals, from the scrubber.
“This new product has been successfully demonstrated at several large coal-burning power facilities. The additive has consistently proven to reduce mercury reemission from wet flue gas desulfurization systems achieving greater than 95% mercury control, resulting in stack mercury emissions well below MATS compliance limits,” said John Pavlish, chief technology officer of Midwest Energy Emissions.
“The addition of the scrubber reemission product to our Total Mercury Control product line-up complements our existing patented technologies and further improves the effectiveness and cost savings of the ME2C Mercury Capture Programs. The non-hazardous additive has proven to be very effective; allowing ME2C to offer to utility plants another cost-saving option for mercury compliance,” said Marc Sylvester, vice president of sales for Midwest Energy Emissions.
A simple injection system can be tailored to each plant configuration which allows for a completely “hands free” operation at the plant, which can be maintained by ME2C’s technicians.
“The development of new products and techniques, such as this, is what continues to position ME2C as the leading technology firm in the mercury control industry. This product, along with others that are currently in development, are fueling our growth and competitive advantage,” said Richard MacPherson, president and CEO of Midwest Energy Emissions.
About Midwest Energy Emissions
Midwest Energy Emissions Corp. delivers patented and proprietary solutions to the global coal-power industry to remove mercury from power plant emissions, providing performance guarantees, and leading-edge emissions services. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) MATS rule, which has been subject to legal challenges, requires that all coal- and oil-fired power plants in the U.S., larger than 25 mega-watts, must remove roughly 90 percent of mercury from their emissions starting April 15, 2015. ME2C has developed patented technology and proprietary products that have been shown to achieve mercury removal levels compliant with MATS at a significantly lower cost and with less operational impact than currently used methods, while preserving the marketability of fly-ash for beneficial use.
