Sulphur is most definitely not a gas. It is a yellow solid which exists in two forms; rhombic sulphur below 96 degrees Celsius, and monoclinic sulphur above 96 degrees celsius. However, some of its compounds are gases, the most common being Sulfur Dioxide, which is a pollutant since it is partly responsible for acid rain.

How can sulphur dioxide be removed from flue gas by wet scrubbing?

Sulphur dioxide can be removed from flue gas by wet scrubbing using a scrubbing solution such as a slurry of limestone in water. The sulphur dioxide reacts with the alkaline solution to form calcium sulfite or sulfate, which can then be separated from the gas stream. The scrubbed gas is then released into the atmosphere with reduced sulphur dioxide levels.
