DescripciónA coal-fired power plant in Szczecin is now the site of a 4-year IAEA technical co-operation model project to demonstrate, on an industrial scale, a "novel" technology that can do just that. Electron beam dry scrubbing (EBDS) works by recycling the flue gases through a chamber, before they escape from the chimney and exposing them to low-energy electron radiation from an accelerator. As a result the toxic SO2 and NOx are transformed to other chemical forms. By adding ammonia to the chamber, the resulting by-product, a dry powder, can be used as fertilizer.
