SkyScraper scrubber technology is designed to help refining, power and other industrial plants safely treat flue gas streams and have the potential to mitigate rising environmental concerns around fly ash, the company said.
The scrubber technology captures between 97% to 99% of pollutants found in exhaust gases, including SOx, NO2, mercury and other heavy metals, and mineralizes these and other toxins while producing marketable byproducts, including chlorine and hydrogen.
SkyScraper joins SkyMine, Skynonic’s patented, for-profit carbon removal and mineralization technology, and expands the options for use by industrial plants to clean their facilities, while addressing air quality requirements.
Skyonic said that the SkyScraper technology helps coal plants eliminate the risks associated with coal ash, such as groundwater pollution, contamination of connected surface waters or generation of toxic vapors.
