The efficiency of removing SO2 from the flue gas by limestone in wet scrubbers can be as high as
Answer: D
Limestone in a wet scrubber can remove as much as 90% of the SO2 from flue gas.
The gas is washed with a limestone slurry, which reacts with SO2 to form calcium sulphite and then calcium sulphate (gypsum). Well-designed wet limestone scrubbers reach removal efficiencies of about 90% or more. The lower figures of 30, 50 and 70% are efficiencies of simpler dry or partial processes, not the best figure that is asked for.
