Desulfurisasi gas buang

Pembersih gas di pembangkit listrik tenaga batu batu bara G. G. Allen di Amerika Serikat.

Desulfurisasi gas buang adalah prosedur pembersihan gas untuk memisahkan sulfur dioksida (SO₂) dari emisi gas buang, khususnya dari pabrik, pembangkit listrik, tempat pembakaran sampah dan mesin besar. Sulfur dioksida sendiri dihasilkan dari pembakaran bahan bakar fosil yang mengandung sulfur.
