A recent study by Songshan Cao et al., published in Fuel on ScienceDirect (Elsevier). It delivers new mechanistic insights into HCl removal by calcium- and zinc-modified hydrotalcites, integrating experimental data with density functional theory to inform sorbent design for high-temperature flue gas cleaning in thermochemical plants—critical in waste-to-energy, biomass, and coal combustion applications.
To support real-time evaluation of hydrochloric acid in these high-complexity gas streams, the researchers incorporated the ESEGAS ESE-LASER-200 TDLAS Online HCl gas analyzer. Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (TDLAS) enables continuous, highly selective HCl measurement, delivering fast response and robust performance even amid corrosive, particulate-laden flue gases typical of incineration and combustion environments.
In practical industrial settings, such online HCl monitoring is essential for emission control and process optimization: it helps operators adjust combustion and scrubbing systems in real time, identify transient spikes, and maintain compliance with stringent environmental standards. Continuous monitoring with TDLAS-based gas analyzers like the ESE-LASER-200 provides reliable data that bridges laboratory research and field-scale emission management, offering valuable guidance for engineers focused on reducing equipment corrosion, improving sorbent function, and enhancing overall flue gas treatment strategies.
