Do power plants use carbonic acid to remove sulfur oxide gases?
True
Sulfur dioxide is released in the combustion of coal Scrubbers use lime slurries of calcium hydroxide to remove the SO2 from flue gases Write a balanced equation for this reaction?
CaO+SO2+H2O-->CaSO3+H2O
How is sulfur dioxide removed from coal in power station emissions?
they clean the coal as it passes through with machines called 'scrubbers'
Would it be most difficult to remove an electron from sodium aluminum sulfur or chlorine?
Sulfur
How do you separate sulfur and sand and iron fillings?
you can easily remove iron with magnet. then if you do not care about the sulfur you can set it on fire, and what is left will be pure sand. If you do care about sulfur i don't think i can help you.
What can we do about preventing acid rain?
Avoid putting sulfur into the air. This can be done by burning low sulfur coal, or by using scrubbers to remove the sulfur from the exhaust. Also use ultra low sulfur diesel fuel.
What air pollutant do scrubbers in smokestacks remove?
I'm pretty sure its either mercury, sulfur oxide, or nitrogen oxide but you should double check on those
How can power plants help their air pollution problem?
Power plants need air scrubbers to help reduce sulfur dioxide. Too often factory owners put profit ahead of public safety.

What are scrubbers in smokestacks?
Scrubbers use a wet limestone slurry to absorb sulfur as it passes though. Filters are large cloth bags that catch particles as they go through the cloth. Scrubbers are more common, and can reduce sulfur emissions by up to 90 percent, when working properly. Still, smaller particulates are less likely to be absorbed by the limestone, and can pass out the smokestack into the air. yehhh the answerr
How do countries work together to solve the global pollution problems?
Coal contains up to 4% sulfur. Other materials contain sulfur. The chief cause of acid rain has been the burning of coal and the smelting of materials. First. Countries have made it illegal for individuals to burn coal in their fireplaces. This has made it so that individual houses are not putting sulfuric acid into the air. Second, countries have forced power plants and smelters to put scrubbers inside of chimneys of coal burning electric plants. The scrubbers have reduced the amount of sulfuric acid entering the air. Still, Since Congress has not forced all plants to retrofit scrubbers, a tremendous amount of sulphuric acid still goes into the atmosphere and returns as acid rain.
