Abstract: Mercury pollution from coal-fire flue gas is considered another severe environmental pollution after the dust, sulphur and nitrogen pollutions, and it has been getting more attention in recent years. This article discusses the policies and codes on mercury control, the mercury existence forms and affecting factors, the mercury emission detection methods, and the current mercury removal technologies. It also puts forward the prospect of the research on mercury pollution control for coal combustion in the future.

Key words: coal-fired flue gas, mercury removal, synergistic technique, on-line monitoring
