Measurements show extremely high emissions of  mercury from to large crematoriums in Norway having no mercury scrubbers

 

April 24th 2002

Measurements on two crematoriums in Norway showed an extremely high emission of mercury of 0.26 milligrams and 0.56 milligrams pr SCM, respectively. Those crematoriums have no scrubber for mercury removal.

Another surprising thing was that the dust coming out of the chimney contain 0.3 and 0.5 percent mercury.

Due to this, Miltec Ltd. is now measuring mercury emissions from any chimney, all according to the EU standards.
