GE has developed an advanced, patented mercury control technology capable of high removal efficiencies. Mer-Cure* is an enhanced activated carbon injection system with unique attributes that improve mercury oxidation and subsequent mercury capture. The sorbent is injected into the duct upstream of the air heater, allowing enhanced use of the effective temperature range for oxidation and providing longer residence time for optimal mercury capture.
For additional mercury capture and reduced sorbent consumption, our patented activated carbon milling technology can add even greater mercury capture and reduced sorbent consumption.
Benefits include: • Enhanced mercury (Hg) capture by up to 90% • Reduced sorbent consumption by up to 50% • Lowered OPEX • Wider range of potential sorbent suppliers
