Macrotek Awarded Upgrade of Gas Quality Control System at Plasma Gasification Demonstration Plant

Macrotek Inc., a leader in air pollution control technology, has been supporting a major plasma gasification company with the development and commercialization of its advanced plasma gas conversion technology for over a decade. The company, a forerunner in the plasma gasification process, awarded Macrotek with the upgrade of a gas quality control system that includes a multi-contaminant removal system from the synthetic gas prior to combustion. The upgrade incorporates a redesign of the particulate removal and absorber systems while the presence of tars requires a cutting-edge technological approach. Macrotek`s flooded disc MVA venturi scrubber combined with a custom designed spray tower and sub-cool/re-heat treatment system are being implemented.
