VIPER Mill

VIPER Mill

The UCC VIPER™ Mill is a proven, reliable technology that significantly reduces operating cost and improves emissions control of dry sorbent injection (DSI) systems. VIPER Mill technology reduces sorbent particle size to enhance removal of SO₂, SO^­­₃, and HCL.

The VIPER Mill is capable of processing up to 7 tons per hour of sorbent on a 24/7 basis. In a typical SO₂ removal application, the VIPER Mill can reduce sorbent usage by 30-50%. In SO₃ removal applications, the ultra-small sorbent particle size helps to achieve aggressive ppm targets while reducing usage up to 50%. A single VIPER Mill can reduce sorbent costs by over $3 million annually compared to other DSI systems.

Industry leading UCC DSI technology, including the new VIPER Mill, provides utilities with the most efficient and economical method to meet current and future emission limits and regulations.
