A method for removing mercury from a fluid stream includes the steps of providing a porous composite material comprising a substrate and a plurality of catalyst and/or photocatalyst particles, and contacting substrate with a fluid stream. The porous composite material adsorbs and/or then oxidizes or reduces metallic species including elemental mercury. A fossil fuel fired power plant can include an emission control device comprising the porous composite material to filter flue gas to and thereby minimize mercury emissions into the environment.

L'invention concerne un procédé d'extraction de mercure sur flux de fluide, selon les étapes suivantes : fourniture de matériau composite poreux comprenant un substrat et plusieurs particules catalytiques et/ou photocatalytiques, et contact entre le substrat et un flux de fluide. Le matériau composite poreux adsorbe et/ou ensuite oxyde ou réduit l'espèce métallique comprenant le mercure élémentaire. Une installation d'énergie à combustible fossile peut être dotée d'un dispositif de contrôle des émissions qui comprend ledit matériau pour le filtrage des gaz de combustion, ce qui permet de réduire au minimum les émissions de mercure dans l'environnement.
