Surface modification of activated carbon for adsorption of SO2 and NOX: A review of existing and emerging technologies

A severe problem associated with combustion of fossil fuels and biomass in the quest for heat and power generation is the release of acidic gases. This posed great health and environmental concerns, and their presence in sufficient amount in flue gas affects the performance of CO2 capture system thr...
