Hi everybody,
I am investigating SO2 reduction equipment for small type of foundry. They are using no.6 fuel oil. Consumption is approximately 5- 6 tons/month. SO2 will be reduced 5000 ppm to 1500 ppm.
Does anybody have information about it?

Many thanks for your valuable ideas.

If the SO2 is from the no. 6 fuel, the only feasible option is to switch fuels to either a low sulfur fuel or to natural gas.

Flue gas desulfurization is not practical because of the high capital and operating costs.
