German coal contains an average of one tonne of sulphur per 100 tonnes of coal. During combustion, this generates in about two tonnes of sulphur dioxide. Thus, a large 700-megawatt power plant which burns about 200 tonnes of coal per hour produces about 100 tonnes of sulphur dioxide per day. These days of course, such a large quantity of a pollutant can no longer be simply released into the air, therefore these flue gases have to be desulphurised. This model experiment provides a simple demonstration of the chemical processes of flue gas desulphurisation as it is carried out in power plants today. The clear, compact setup and the simplifications undertaken relative to industrial scale desulphurisation make it easy to understand the process.
