B&W Mitagent improves halogen use to oxidize mercury (EUEC 2015)

Summary: *Mitagent reduces injection cost for Iodine by 30‐50% while providing same 90+% Hg oxidation levels * Mitagent further improves Hg oxidation by 20‐30% for low Bromine application rates (25 ppm or less) * Mitagent reduces application rates by 30‐50% for high Bromine addition rates (>100 ppm), and therefore associated corrosion risks * Mitagent use results in significant operating cost reduction by reducing halogen usage * On going long‐term testing indicates no negative effect on boiler or AQCS performance
