Abstract of the Disclosure In a system for removing sulfur oxides from flue gas, the gas is contacted by a primary extraction solution containing sodium sulfite as the active compound and some sodium bisulfite in a scrubber, and the resultant extract containing more sodium bisulfite is mixed with an alkaline solution containing regenerated sodium sulfite in a mixer to produce the primary extraction solution. A portion of the latter is bled off to a regenerator wherein the quantity of sodium bisulfite made in the scrubber reacts with cal- cium hydroxide to form regenerated sodium sulfite and large diameter calcium sulfite precipitates that remain suspended in the parent solution. This mixture is drawn off the regenerator by overflow, without pumping, for gravity flow to the eye of a thickener, wherein an increased density slurry of the mixture is withdrawn from the thickener well and directed to a rotary filter to produce a calcium sulfite filter cake. The resultant filtrate and the solids free overflow from the thickener provide the sodium sulfite solution inputs to a holding tank, from which the liquor is pumped through a back washed polishing filter and back to the mixer. Flyash, initially present in the incoming flue gas, is separated from the gas in the scrubber and passes through the system to the filter, where it acts as a filter-aid. -1a--
