Global sodium bromide market: Stringent mercury emission control

Sodium bromide is one of the major raw materials used in the production of bromide compounds. Bromide compounds and bromine control mercury emissions from coal-fired power plants. Bromine mitigates mercury emissions.

“When there is a contact between bromine and mercury in the presence of flue gases, mercuric bromide is formed. Mercuric bromide can be easily captured in flue-gas scrubbers, as compared to mercuric chloride that is produced at many production facilities. The US EPA formulates standards to limit the emissions of mercury, acid, gases, and other toxic pollutants from power plants. As a result, bromine and its compounds will be used extensively to control mercury emissions during the forecast period,” says a senior analyst at Technavio for research on specialty chemicals.
