To reduce mercury emission in the flue gas at coal-fired power plant, it is very important and meaningful to research the mercury content and the existing status of other elements in coal. In this paper, mercury and sulfur content including their relevant relations of existing speciations from five coal samples were studied. Experimental method was based on U.S. EPA Method 7471 and experimental apparatus was automatic mercury analysis system Hydra AA. The results showed that in these 5 coal samples, the range of mercury content was from 0.284μg/g to 0.663μg/g and the average content was 0.401μg/g. The range of sulfur content was from 0.688% to 5.546% and the average content was 2.30% . The existing status of mercury and sulfur in coal was very complex. Under normal circumstances, when there was high sulfur content in coal, there was also high mercury content. However, the low sulfur coal may be of high mercury content.
This paper mainly studied the effects of different iron-doped volume on photo-catalytic oxidation of TiO2 for mercury removal. Through the photocatalytic oxidation system, we evaluated the elemental mercury removal performance of TiO2 with iron-doped mass ratio of 0.5%, 1%, 2% and 3%. While the iron-doped mass ratio were 0.5%, 1%, 2% and 3%, the elemental mercury removal efficiency were 70.83%,52.89%,72.32% and 62.39% respectively, the removal efficiency increased firstly, then declined, and 2% iron-doped was the most appropriate
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.
