Thermo introduces a complete mercury monitoring solution.
Thermo's Mercury Freedom SystemTM has been designed to efficiently and accurately meet the new U.S. EPA PS-12A and/or Part 75 provisions. The new system measures elemental, ionic and total mercury in exhaust stacks from both coal-fired boilers and waste incinerators.
A demonstrated solution.
As a key participant in the U.S. EPA Mercury CEMS Field Evaluation Program conducted at a coal-fired power plant burning eastern bituminous coal and equipped with SCR and a wet scrubber, Thermo's Mercury Freedom SystemTM met or exceeded all performance requirements reviewed thus far. Other successful field tests have also been conducted with a variety of coals and a full range of concentration ratios of elemental to ionic mercury.
A solution with reliability
Engineered for unattended, continuous-duty reliability, Mercury Freedom System rack-mountable components integrate seamlessly into most existing stack monitoring configurations. The system features a highly sensitive cold vapor atomic fluorescence analyzer, and requires no wet chemicals or costly gold amalgamation concentrator.
The Mercury Freedom SystemTM consists of five primary components.
- Probe and converter
- Hg probe controller
- Hg analyzer
- Hg calibrator
- Zero air supply
Key Benefits:
- Dilution based measurement
