Mercury Emission Control
The SEA® technology has been recognized globally as a “BACT” (Best Available Capture Technology”) since the early 2000s after undergoing industry-wide testing and demonstrations in partnership with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) during early technology development.
ME2C® partners with customers to deliver tailored mercury capture solutions using our patented SEA® Technologies, blending science and engineering. Our systems and materials are specifically designed for each customer's coal-fired units and plant configuration. Approximately 40% of the coal-fired U.S. fleet currently use our highly effective technologies for mercury emissions capture.
As experts in the science of chemisorption, we provide solutions based on a thorough understanding of actual and probable interactions involved in mercury capture in coal-fired flue gas, resulting in the most effective mercury capture achievable. Combined with a thorough proprietary audit of the plant and its configuration and instrumentation, ME2C’s complete science and engineering approach for mercury–sorbent–flue gas interactions is well-understood, highly predictive, and critical.
Our cost-effective approach for mercury emission reduction exceeds U.S. EPA Mercury and Air Toxics Standards for all coal-burning power plants. Our products are effective across various fuel and system types, adaptable to any configuration, and offer operational, environmentally friendly benefits, including the recycling of coal ash for important industrial uses. The patented SEA® approach provides advanced solutions that maximize economic benefits.
