La desulfuración de gases de chimenea es la tecnología más utilizada para controlar la contaminación poscombustión en la quema de carbón. Existen dos tipos de procesos: "húmedo" y "seco"; en ambos procesos, a las emisiones se las "depura" de dióxido de carbono con carbonato de calcio o cal. Los equipos de desulfuración permiten extraer más del 90 % del dióxido de azufre de los gases de combustión y pueden instalarse en las actuales centrales eléctricas. 2, record 1, Spanish, - desulfuraci%C3%B3n%20de%20gases%20de%20chimenea
