Activated, highly porous hydrated lime with best-in-class performance
Sorbacal® SPS is an activated enhanced hydrated lime with the highest acid gas removal performance. It was developed especially for removing acid gas pollutants using dry or combined processes.
Sorbacal® SPS has a specific surface area of typically 40 m²/g (BET) and a porous volume of typically 0.20 cm³/g (BJH). The particle size of Sorbacal® SPS is designed for optimal reactivity, flowability and handling.
This dry, white, ready-to-use powder meets high SO2 removal demands. Sorbacal® SPS has the same physical and chemical characteristics as Sorbacal® SP, but is activated at the time of production to improve performance. Also, like Sorbacal® SP, it does not require prior milling and is applicable for a very wide temperature range between 50-900 °C. Sorbacal® SPS has an improved electrical resistivity making it compatible with electrostatic precipitators.
