MTB-S-U · Mercury Trap, 30B, Speciated, Unspiked

Flue gas Oxidized Hg (Hg2+) species are adsorbed by a potassium chloride (KCl). After passing through the KCl sorbent, Elemental Hg (Hgo) is collected by iodated carbon sorbent. Total Hg (Hgt) is determined by summation of species.

Proper temperature maintenance is critical (<130°C) for accurate speciation results. Sorbent trap shields are used to prevent buildup of particulate, which can potentially oxidize mercury creating a bias.

Trap Suitability Study - Recognizing that every source has different conditions (NOx, SO2, moisture content, etc.), our Analysis Division can develop R&D traps configured for your stack condition. Call for more information.
