Chemtura Corporation, debtor-in-possession (Pink Sheets: CEMJQ), will showcase its GeoBrom(TM) family of bromine and brominated derivative products at EUEC Booth 725 for application in bromine technologies used in control of toxic mercury emissions from coal-fired power plants and other coal-fired boilers.
EUEC 2010, the 13th Annual Energy & Environmental Conference and Expo, will be held Feb. 1-4 at the Phoenix Convention Center, Phoenix, Arizona. For information about EUEC 2010, visit www.euec.com.
Visitors to the Chemtura booth will discover in GeoBrom(TM) products yet another example of Chemtura's commitment to its "Greener is Better" program, which is focused on adding value to companies in the power industry, while contributing to energy sustainability, environmental stewardship, and a clean, reliable, and cost effective source of power for the consumer.
The GeoBrom(TM) line of brominated, inorganic, derivative products has been designed for incorporation into new technologies for the efficient removal of toxic mercury emissions from coal-fired boilers in order to achieve compliance with State and Federal mandates. The product line includes GeoBrom(TM) HG400, GeoBrom(TM) HG40S, GeoBrom(TM) HG520 and GeoBrom(TM) HG52S.
United States' clean air regulations are driving research and subsequent commercial development into cost effective, efficient and easily-implemented technologies to remove mercury from coal-fired energy sources and prevent mercury emissions into the environment. Bromine chemistries have demonstrated a strong performance advantage in many of the technologies employed for this purpose such as the addition of brominated derivative products to boilers or flues and the incorporation of bromine with sorbents that are injected into the flue.
