Under many national-level clean-air regulations, power plants and other facilities are required to use flue gas treatments to reduce the amount of emitted pollutants. Such approaches, which use devices such as electrostatic precipitators and scrubbers, can successfully remove 90 percent or more of certain pollutants. 3, record 1, English, - flue%20gas%20treatment

La technique la plus courante dans le traitement des gaz de combustion consiste à utiliser de la chaux sèche en tant que réactif de stabilisation/solidification. La chaux est utilisée avec les résidus de cendres et forme une substance semblable à du ciment. Une autre alternative consiste toutefois à recycler et réutiliser les résidus, et notamment les cendres volantes, les cendres de charbon et de résidus de perchlorate d’ammonium. 1, record 1, French, - traitement%20des%20gaz%20de%20combustion

Suncor, en collaboration avec le consortium Consolidated Tailings, a mis au point un nouveau traitement des résidus, appelé «résidus composites», qui consiste à mélanger aux boues résiduaires, pour accélérer leur solidification, du gypse récupéré de l'unité de désulfuration des gaz de combustion de l'usine. Cette nouvelle technologie a déjà gagné la faveur d’autres sociétés d’exploitation minière. Grâce à la technologie des résidus composites, on peut envisager la réhabilitation des étangs de décantation en moins de 10 ans. 1, record 2, French, - technologie%20des%20r%C3%A9sidus%20composites
