CA 2150363

The invention provides a method for reducing atmospheric pollution caused by a pollutant selected from the group consisting of CO2, SO2 and a mixture thereof, the pollutant being contained in industrial gases being emitted to the atmosphere, through the conversion of CO2 to calcium carbonate and the conversion of SO2 to calcium sulfite using conventionally available calcium salt-containing reactant; said method comprising reacting the pollutant-containing gas, prior to the venting thereof to the atmosphere, with an alkali base and an aqueous liquor, whereby the pollutant reacts with the base and transfers to the liquor, and the resulting gas vented to the atmosphere has a reduced pollutant content; and roacting the pollutant-loaded liquor with a calcium salt-containing reactant to form calcium carbonate and calcium sulfite respectively, with the co-formation of a commercially utilizable salt containing an anion from the calcium salt reactant and a cation from the alkali base.

Procédé de réduction de la pollution atmosphérique due à un polluant compris dans le groupe constitué de CO2, SO2 et d'un mélange de ceux-ci, ledit polluant étant contenu dans les gaz industriels dégagés dans l'atmosphère. Le procédé consiste à transformer le CO2 en carbonate de calcium et à tranformer le SO2 en sulfite de calcium, au moyen d'un réactif classique contenant un sel de calcium. Selon le procédé, on met en réaction le gaz contenant le polluant, avec son dégagement dans l'atmosphère, avec une base alcaline et un liquide aqueux, de telle sorte que le polluant réagisse avec la base et passe dans le liquide, et que le gaz dégagé ultérieurement dans l'atmosphère présente une teneur réduite en polluant; et on met en réaction le liquide chargé de polluant avec un réactif contenant un sel de calcium, de manière à former respectivement le carbonate de calcium et le sulfite de calcium, et à former simultanément un sel commercialisable renfermant un anion provenant du réactif à sel de calcium et un cation provenantde la base alcaline.
