Abstract
A method is provided for treating ashes from the combustion of petroleum fuels by mixing the combustion ashes with water to produce a slurry; injecting either calcium oxide or calcium hydroxide into the slurry and reacting the calcium oxide or calcium hydroxide with the ammonium sulfate within the ashes to produce a slurry containing gypsum and ammonia; flowing the slurry containing gypsum and ammonia down from the top portion of packed column and air or steam up from the bottom portion of the packed column so that the air or steam strips the ammonia from the gypsum slurry; and separating the gypsum from the resulting ammonia-free slurry using a solid/liquid separator.
