Abstract: Electrical vitality created in any nation is one of the advancement estimates happens in that nation. The vitality delivered is principally founded on the accessible assets, for example, streaming water, coal, oil, gas, atomic fills, wind, sunlight based and so forth. The accessibility of wealth coal in India had incited the influence plant organizers to introduce coal based warm influence stations. During the pre-autonomy and post-freedom period in mid fifties, the need was to produce control and consequently much consideration was not paid to the contamination perspective and this proceeded up to late seventies. Most of intensity plants in India extending from not many MW to 500 MW or more are of pummeled fuel terminated boilers using low calorific, low coal sulfur, high debris content sub-bituminous coal. Because of consuming of the coal, discharges, for example, Particulate Matter (PM), Oxides of Sulfur (SOx) and Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx) aside from CO2, CO are diverted to the climate through the vent gas. The mindfulness made by contamination impact on the general public and the tremendous measure of disintegration exposed to the gear constrained the specialists to make contamination standards increasingly stringent. In this paper, the methodology to reduce SOx from flue gas in an old lower capacity power station is discussed and the optimum and cost effective methodology adopted is Dry Sorbent Injection (DSI) by injecting sodium bicarbonate or sodium carbonate or trona in the flue gas path after furnace and before/after Air-preheater to remove SO2/SO3 from the flue gas. The removed sulphate will be collected along with ash in ESP or Fabric Filter in a Bag house.
