The Cansolv Multipollutant process operates exclusively in liquid and gas phase so abrasion does not occur. For corrosion resistance, 316L stainless steel is the most suitable alloy for the SO2 and NOx-Mercury tower sections (pH>5). FRP may also be used for these sections given the relatively low temperatures and lack of abrasion. For the prescrubber section, a concrete shell and corrosion liner design is recommended as the pH drop to 1 depending on the concentration of strong acids in the gas (Cl, F, SO3).
