Presentation Transcript

  1. SO2 Reading: Chap 15 • Strategies for SO2 removal • Formation Prevention • Low sulfur fuel, Fuel desulfurization, • Flue Gas Treatment • Wet scrubbing, Dry scrubbing, Spray drying, Dual Alkali, Wellman-Lord Process Aerosol & Particulate Research Laboratory

  2. Strategies for SO2 Removal Aerosol & Particulate Research Lab

  3. Fuel Desulfurization Oil & natural gas Coal Mineral sulfate --> wash away Organic sulfur ??? --> SO2 removal IGCC – Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle Claus process (for sale; a commodity, not a pollutant) SO2 Removal http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_gasification_combined_cycle High concentration (e.g. smelting) Absorbing SO2 to make H2SO4 Low concentration (< 2000 ppm) Flue gas desulfurization Aerosol & Particulate Research Lab

  4. Limestone (Wet) Scrubbing (packed tower) (effluent hold tank) Advantages and disadvantages compared to water? Mass transfer in liquid film f: enhancement factor to account for chemical reactions that permit SO2 diffusion through the liquid film as bisulfite or sulfite species Overall mass transfer coefficient Does mass transfer increase as f increases? Main reactions converting SO2 to bisulfite in the liquid film precipitate Aerosol & Particulate Research Lab

  5. Is it better to have a high pH? Aerosol & Particulate Research Lab

  6. Lime (Wet) Scrubbing How does it compare to limestone scrubbing? Dual Alkali (recycled) Advantages and disadvantages? Aerosol & Particulate Research Lab

  7. CaO Ca2+ Ca2+ SO2 CaO CaSO4 CaSO4 Lime-Spray Drying Same as lime scrubbing except the water evaporates before the droplets reach the bottom of the tower Dry scrubbing Direct injection of pulverized lime or limestone, also trona (natural Na2CO3) or nahcolite (natural NaHCO3) Advantage of dry methods over wet methods? Aerosol & Particulate Research Lab

  8. Quick Reflection Aerosol & Particulate Research Lab
