Abstract

Abstract Seawater flue gas desulfurization (SWFGD) is considered to be a viable solution for marine and coastal applications. SWFGD, however, still has a couple of drawbacks that have to be resolved. High pumping costs and poor mass transfer efficiency require large volume and heavy construction. Thus, intensified and advanced process configurations have become necessary in process industries to improve the SWFGD processes performance. This work presents an overview of several advanced SWFGD systems such as swirling gas flow, square-based shapes scrubber, rotating packed bed and addition of a pre-scrubber. This work also presents an overview of industrial uses, challenges, and improved SWFGD processes.
