DownloadsSorbSaver is a simple, cost-effective retrofit for dry sorbent injection / activated carbon injection systems
Dry sorbent injection is widely used to reduce a range of pollutants. While these systems have a low capital cost when compared to alternative technologies, continued operation has shown the lance-based method of injecting sorbent involves inefficient mixing and dispersion, and frequent plugging within the lance creates a high maintenance burden. Tri-Mer’s technology minimizes or eliminates these issues, providing a cost-effective solution that produces immediate cost savings.
| Issues | The SorbSaver Solution |
|---|---|
| High sorbent injection rates | Reduces sorbent inject rates by as much as 40%, minimizing sorbent costs and equipment wear |
| Regulatory compliance | Reduces pollutants by up to 25% more, providing a greater buffer on compliance standards |
| Maintenance costs | Eliminates the lance as a key cause of ongoing maintenance |
| Waste / landfill costs | Reduces injection rates, minimizes sorbent content in ash, improving ash quality, enabling sales or reductions in landfill costs |
| Injector location | Small, lightweight design means injector location is flexible, rather than limited to where a lance can function |
| Variable load operation | Tune each individual injector, allowing for automated feed rates and blower speeds for varying loads |
