A novel
integrative process for simultaneous removal of SO2 and
NO from coal-fired flue gas was designed, in which, SO2 and NO were initially oxidized by a vaporized complex oxidant
composed of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and sodium
persulfate (Na2S2O8) (HN solution)
and then absorbed by the Ca(OH)2 that followed. The effects
of various reaction factors on the simultaneous removal were investigated,
such as the concentration of Na2S2O8, the transition metal additives, the HN pH, the adding rate of HN,
the residence time of flue gas, the reaction temperature, and the
concentrations of coexistence gases O2, SO2,
NO, and CO2. Under the optimal conditions, the simultaneous
removal efficiencies of 98.9% for SO2 and 79.6% for NO
were obtained. The reaction mechanism was speculated based on the
characterization of removal products by scanning electron microscopy
and X-ray diffraction and related literature references. Meanwhile,
the macrokinetics of desulfurization and denitrification were also
calculated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
