A process for treating effluent from a flue-gas desulfurization system wherein the resulting gypsum is removed, comprises filtering the gypsum and fly ash free effluent by a filter, transferring the filtrate to an electrodialyzer wherein cation-exchange membranes and univalent anion-exchange membranes are alternately set up, concentrating chlorine ions in the solution therein by dialysis, further concentrating the solution by evaporation in an evaporator, kneading the concentrated solution with cement or a mixture of cement and coal ash to a solid matter with no harm, and thereafter abandoning for landfill; and an apparatus for treating effluent from a flue-gas desulfurization system, comprising a filter for filtering the effluent to a turbidity low enough for treatment by an electrodialyzer wherein the effluent is to be separated into concentrated and dilute solutions, the electrodialyzer equipped with an alternate arrangement of cation- and anion-exchange membranes, with concentration and dilution compartments alternately provided between the both ion-exchange membranes, means for conducting the concentrated solution to a step for final disposal, and means for recycling the dilute solution as makeup water to the desulfurization system.
A process for treating effluent from a flue-gas desulfurization system wherein flue gas containing sulfur oxides gas is brought into contact with limestone or hydrated lime slurry and the sulfur oxides gas is thereby absorbed and removed and then fixed and separated as gypsum, which process comprises filtering the liquid to free it from gypsum/coal fly ash therein to produce a filtrate,
In a process for treating an effluent from a flue-gas desulfurization system wherein flue gas containing sulfur oxides and chlorine values is contacted with limestone or a hydrated lime slurry, the sulfur oxide gas is absorbed and fixed in the slurry as gypsum and the gypsum is separated leaving a liquid containing chloride ions, the improvement which comprises filtering the liquid containing the chloride ions from gypsum/coal fly ash containing therein by filtration, subjecting the filtrate to electrodialysis in an electrodialyzer comprising concentration compartments and dilution compartments formed by cation-exchange membranes and univalent anion-exchange membrane to produce a concentrated chloride ion containing solution in the dilution compartments, wherein at least two of either of said cation-exchange membranes or anion-exchange membrane are positioned side-by-side and directly parallel to each other, subjecting the concentrated chloride ion containing solution to further concentration by evaporation in an evaporator, kneading the thus further concentrated solution with cement or a mixture of cement and coal ash to form a solid, thereafter disposing of the solid, and recycling the dilute chloride ion containing solution as make up water for the slurry.
