Abstract: The seawater desulfurization technology has the advantage of economic benefit, and is suitable for flue gas desulfurization in coastal thermal power plant. The domestic and overseas engineering application and application problem of seawater desulfurization technology were introduced. Research progress in membrane gas absorption for flue gas desulfurization, seawater recovery system, structured packing and packed tower were described. The performance comparison of economy and safety between seawater desulfurization, seawater desulfurization with membrane contactor and limestone-gypsum flue gas desulfurization were analyzed. The development strategy of seawater desulfurization technology in China was proposed. Finally the development prospects of flue gas treatment for China coastal coal-fired power plant were proposed.

Key words: seawater desulfurization technology, coal-fired power plant, membrane gas absorption technology
