【 摘 要 】

Under the new legislation, in force since 2021, mercury emission limits for large combustion plants (LCP) are determined. This paper describes formation of mercury during coal combustion process and present methods of removing mercury from flue gases. This paper also reviews the fuel base of the Czech Republic and current measurement results of mercury emissions from some important LCPs in the Czech Republic. Measurement shows that most LCPs in the Czech Republic do not meet these emission limits and it leads to find out technical and economic solution.
