Description
Industrial by-product gypsum, also known as flue gas desulfurization (FGD) gypsum, refers to gypsum generated from the reaction of calcium oxide with desulfurization and denitrification reagents during flue gas desulfurization and denitrification processes. Currently, industrial by-product gypsum mainly originates from flue gas desulfurization and denitrification processes, as well as waste materials from industries such as iron and steel, copper metallurgy, phosphorus chemicals, and fertilizers. The production activities for this product represent a weighted average of gypsum by-product generation from "Natural gas electricity, steel plant", "Sinter", and "Coal-fired power, Steel plant". The life cycle inventory is compiled from data derived from multiple sources.
Activity Description
The production activities for this product are a weighted average of the co-product gypsum generated by the steel plant's "gas electricity, steel plant", "sinter ore", and "coal-fired electricity steel plant".
Process Description
Industrial by-product gypsum, also known as flue gas desulfurization (FGD) gypsum, refers to gypsum produced when calcium oxide reacts with desulfurization and denitrification agents during flue gas desulfurization and denitrification processes. Currently, industrial by-product gypsum mainly originates from flue gas desulfurization and denitrification, as well as waste generated by industries such as steel and copper metallurgy, phosphate chemical processing, and fertilizer production.
