Description

~z~33359 71-150381+

Process for removing oxides of nitrogen and sulfur from wa~te ga~es The present invention relates to a proces~ which makes it po~sibla to ramQve oxides of nitrogen snd sulfur from wsste gases si~ulta-neously without the u~e of lime, sodium hydroxide, ammonia or other chemicals.

The separated n~trogen oxides are used as catalyst for oxidising sulfur dioxidæ with oxygen-containing gas, preferably atmopsheric oxygen. Ultimately, ~arketabl~ nitric acid and sulfur~c acid are obtained from the pollutants.

Tha advantages of the process of this invention will be explained by ~taking;as an example the purif~cation of flua gase~ from a power station ~uelled by ~alt-containing brown coal having a calorlfic valoe greater thsn 4500 kcallkg.

lt will be assumed that the power station produces the following wa-t~ gas, where~x in N0x i8 1 and 2~

amount o~ flue gas `1 mio. Nm3 per hour ~ ;
eoncentration of N0 (ca1cu1at~d~as N02)1.43 g/Nm3 (c. 700 ppm) ~
concantration of S02 ~~12.6 g/Nm3 ~c. 4300 ppm).~ :

Throughout~`thls specification, ppm concentrations will alway~ be~
understood as meaning parto by voIume per m1-l10n units of vo1ume.

: : ~ :

: :: ' :1~9335~

The process of tbis invention makes it possible to reduce the pollutant gases to valus~ lower than S02 0.1 g/Nm3 (c. 34 ppm) N0 0.2 g/Nm~ (c. lO0 ppm).

Provided cooling water wi~h an average annual temperature of l5C ~ 8 available, the operating requirements for the waste gas purification are:

electrical energy : le~s than 3 % of the energy produced in the power station, heat consumption for concentrating the acid in the course of the process: corresponds to a consumption of lsss than 2 % of the coal burned in the power plant.

When the nitric acid (concentration higher than 30 %~ Rnd sulfuric acid (concentration high~r than 75 %~ produced by ths proce6s of this invention can be utilised, for example, in a fertiliser factory, the value of the acids cover~ the operating costs referred to above. The capital expenditure for a procsss according to ths pr~sent invention is le6s than a quarter of that required for the powsr station. :
It is known to remove flue gases by adding ammonla to the still hot flue ga~es, before complete heat utilisation, and passing them over a catalyst, thereby reducing the nitrogen oxides to nitrogen. A
drawback of this process i8 the cost of the ammonia and the limited life of the catalyst. When using salt-containing coal, salt6 vaporise in the combu~tion chamber and form aerosols that contamin-~ ate the catalyst. A further drawback of the dry and also of the wet ; ~ use of ammonia is tha formation of ammonium sulfate aerosols and other salt aerosols which cannot bs separated completely despite the elaborate procedures employed. Ths aerosols released into the : :
, : ~

3~Z93359 atmosphere along with the treated flue gas promote vapour formationin the atmosph0re and prevent natural solar radiation by forming s~og.

In contradistinction to the known prior art, in the process of this invention the operating cost~ fall wlth increasing coDcentrations of N0 in the flue gases. Th~s any combu~tion measures for reducing the formation of N0x are rendered unnecessary.

The nltrogen oxides are essentially present in flua gase~ in the form of N0, which i8 Yery 3paringly absorable. It i5 known to convert N0 into N02 by addition of ozone and to absorb it, for example in ammoniacal liquids. In addition to the high costs of producing ozone, a drawback i8 the previously mentioned unavoidable formation of aerosols.

In recent year~, a~ a result of efforts to control atmospheric pollution, the nitrogen oxide-sulfuric acid process ha~ been proposed for separating SOz and N0x from waste gases containing about 1 % by volume of S02. The work carried out in this field forms the basis of the present in~ention and, in this connection, reference i~ made to the followlng publications:

~lue Kases emitted by power stations contain mostly only 0.02 to 0.5 % by volume of S02; ~nd up to now, an S02 enrichment has been considered necessary before processing in a nitrogen oxide-sulfuric acid system becomes po6sible. FurthermorP, expert opinion is that a nitrogen oxide-sulfuric acid process would cau~e atmospheric pollution through N0 losses.

A principal reason for the inapplicability of known nitrogen oxide-sulfuric acid processes for processing waste gases from power stations is the lengthy ~ojourn time for the oxidation of the N0 set free in the denitration tower. A prerequisite for nitrogen oxide absorption is a suitable ratio oE ~O:N02.

It has now been found that nitrogen oxide-sulfuric acid systems with a reaction requirement of less than 25 m3 per Nm3tsec of flue gas can be operated if more than half the concentration of nitrogen oxide present in the waste gas introduced into the process is absorbed, and the liquid which contains nitrogen oxide iB gubge-quently sub~ected to desorption, whereupon a) the nitrogen oxide set free is mixed with an oxygen-containing gas to give a gas which is relatively enriched with nitrogen oxide and oxygen, and in which nitrogen monoxide oxidises to nitrogen dioxide, and the nitrogen dioxide so obtalned and/or nitric acid produced therefrom, as well as a residual content of nitrogen monoxide, is introduced into the main stream of waste gas to be treated, the molar amounts of quadrivalent and pentavalent nitrogen-oxygen compounds introduced into the system being greater than the molar amount of nitrogen monoxide also introduced, and b) the liquid from which nitrogen oxides have been at least parti-ally removed, or the bulk thereof, is fed ~ack, after passing through the desorption plant, to one or more of the gas treatment towers of the main stream of gas. The acid which has been partially or completely freed from nitrogen compounds can be fed into the first towers of the sy~tem or else in its entirety or in part into ~ 933~

one of the N0x absorption towers (or also into a number of N0x absorption towers) at the end of the system. Both kinds of liquid feedback can be combined.

Because the acid for the purpo~e of N0x desorption has been heated andlor diluted by water or by a weaker acid, it is exp~dient to concentrate or cool the acid before the denitrated or partly denitrated acid enters an N0 absorption tower.

When treating the stream of waste gas, nitric acid is introduced, before the S02 absorptioD, into the denitration cycle or into the S2 absorption cycle in an amount such that an optimum ratio of NO:N02 for the N0x absorption is established. This step is not novel and is described e.g. in US patent specification 4 242 32l.

It has further been found that surprisingly good absorption results are obtained and that relatively high concentrations of nitrose can be employed in the absorption acid by carrying out the absorption at temperatures below 30C. It 18 advantageous to use heat pumps (cooling systems) to produce a cooling brine which, by indirect heat exchange, lowers the temperature of the acid in the cycle to below 20, 15 or even 10C. This measure has proved much less expensive than an excess1ve enlargement of the absorption ~one.

.
An important feature that distinguishe~ the process of this inven-tion from known processes resides in performing the denitration using Iow concentrations of scid. Sulfuric acid in a concentration of less than 73 % or even 70 % makes it possible to effect a sufficient acid denitration even at the low concentration of S02 in the flue gases emitted by power stations. The denitration tower employed in the main stream of gas is conveniently operated in direct~current between gas and acid.
, ~ :
The acid~discharged from the~pre-denitration ln the main current of gas can be sub~ected to indirect heating and to a fine denltration in~a tower through which flows a partial stream of sulfur dioxide.

It is also possible to carry out the entire acid denitration out3ide the main stream of gas and to pass a current of air and/or a partial stream of gas which contains S02 through the denitration apparatus.
If necessary, the current of air or t~e stream of gaA which contains S02 can be heated in order to accelerate the expulsion of the nitrogen oxides.

It is known that the vapour pressure of the nitrogen oxides dis-solved in the sulfuric acid a8 nitrosyl-salfuric acid is greatly increased by addition of nitric acid. Thus, if necessary, the acid denitration can be considerably accelerated by addition of nitric acid. The requi3ite nitric acid is formed in the process of this invention from nitrogen oxides and returns from the denitration apparatus to the process in the form of nitrogen oxides.

Before the denitrated acid enters the N0x absorption zone, it is brought, in a concentrating tower, to the concentration required for a good absorption (73 to 76 % HzS04). The hot acid originating from the concentrating tower can conveniently be used for heating the cold exit gas from the N0x absorption zone.

The heated gases of very low relative humidity can be transported to a bricked flue without the rl.k of tbeir becoming moist.

The advantages of the process of the present invention compared with known nitrogen oxide-sulfuric acid processes become all the more signlficant the lower the concentrations of S02 and the higher the concentrations of N0x in the waste gas to be purified. Preferably the concentration o~ SOz should be below 0.8 % by volume and the concentration of N0 should be above 100 ppm.
x Pigures 1, 2 and 3 and a working Example will serve to illustrate ~ the invention in more detall.

The reference numbers 1 and 9 indicate respectively the waste gas inlet and the gas feed valve. The reference number 2 indicates connecting lines between gas treatment zones and 3 denotes the treated ga~ outlet. All gas treatment tower contain packing layers 5. As shown in figure 1, individual acid treatment stages are equipped with acid coollng means 6 for lowering the temperstures of the acid in order to reach the gas temperatures indicated in the above Table. The reference number 7 indicates the acid spray nozÆles in the gss treatment zones. The reference number 8 indicates the acid sumps in the bottom part of the towers. The packings in the layers 5 hare a surface area of more than 300 m2im3.

~L~933~i9 smaller than 4 m3 for the N0 absorptlon 1, smaller than 12 m3 for the N0 absorption 2, and ~maller than 1.5 m3 for heating the treated gas.

As in every nltrogen oxlde-sulfuric acid system, an acid exchange takes place between the acid denitration and the N0 absorption. The acid freed from nitrose and which flows into the N0 absorption zone i8 hereinafter raferred to as "return acid", whilst the acid containing N0 ia referred to as "primary acid". The amount of sulfuric acid continuously formed in the S0z absorption zone is mixed ~ith the primary acid.

High concentrations of nitrose in the acid are achievad as a consequence of the strong cooling in the N0 sbsorption zone.
Expressed in HN03 equivalents, the concentration of nitrose in the primary acid is higher than 200 g of HN03 per litre. This high concentration makes it possible to work with small amounts of primary and return acid. In the working Example, amounts of less than 500 g/Nm3 of waste gas to be purified suffice.

The low temperatures in the entire treatment zone of the main stream of gas simplify the problem of chooaing suitable materials. In the entire area of the large treatment zones between gas cooling and heatlng treated gas, there are no temperatures hlgher than 40C.

Figure 2 illustrates the treatment of the primary acid. The primary acid is heated, in the heatlng means 20, to a temperature of about 60C and fed to the N0x stripper 22. Spent air ls drawn off from the primary acid treatment zone through this N0x stripper via the llne 4l~ and the ventilator 21. This spent air is essentially slightly impure air w~hlch becomes enriched with N0x in the stri,oper 22. The bulk of the N0 ls converted into N02 in the oxidation zone 24a~. Th~ gases inally enter the HN03 absorber 25, which ia equipped with a circulating pump 26 and an acid cooling means 27. The line 28a serves to introduce HN03 into the denitration zone.

' ~L2933S9 _ 9 _ Excess HN03 produced is drawn off through the line 28. The exit gases containing N0 from the HN03 absorber pass into the oxidation zone 24b. The stream of gas containing more NOz than N0 anters the acid deDitration zone via the line 29.

Figure 3 illustrates the treatment of the return acid.

The return acid leaving the denitration zone snters the heatlng means 30 in which it i8 heated to 80C and then flows through the fine denitration tower 32. Lines 31a and 31b serve to charge this tower with gas which contains S02. It ~uffices to pass about 5 % of the total amount of waste gas through this tower.

The return acid then enters the S02 stripper 33 and subsequently paases into the cycle of the concentrating tower 34c The reference number 39 indicates the circulatlng pump of the concentrating towor, and 35 denotes the acid heatlng means. The H2S04 brought to a concentration of 75 % passes through the line 36 into the purified gas heating cycle.
