Abstract
A composition for separating out volatile pollutants from gases and exhaust gases comprising calcium hydroxide and water-soluble salts of sulfur-containing compounds, e.g., mercaptans, sulfides, polysulfides, polythionates and thiosulfates or elementary sulfur which are used in combination with surface-active substances. Possible ways to produce the composition include adding the sulfur-containing compounds to quicklime during slaking, to the slaking water or, subsequent to slaking, to calcium hydroxide. The compositions are used for removing the volatile heavy metals, particularly mercury, arsenic, cadmium, thallium, antimony and lead, at temperatures ranging from 0 ° C to 400 ° C. For this purpose, the composition is blown as powder into the exhaust gas stream, and the resultant products are separated out at fabric filters. Upon addition of surface-active substances, volatile organic pollutants are removed simultaneously with the afore-mentioned inorganic pollutants.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to a composition and a process for removing noxious substances, particularly volatile heavy metals and/or organic pollutants from gases and exhaust gases, a process for making said composition and the use of said composition.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In thermal processes, e.g., metallurgical processes, coal firing and waste incineration, exhaust gases are produced which are loaded with volatile heavy metals, such as cadmium, mercury, thallium, arsenic, antimony and lead. These substances are elementary heavy metals or their salts, preferably chlorides and oxides.
Usually, the gases are cooled, and the heavy metals are washed out in a wet process. In cases where the heavy metals are present in elementary form, this procedure is often not effective. Mercury, for instance, is widely emitted in elemental form. It can not be removed from the gas in a wet process. Add to this the problem that volatile heavy metals are still emitted as aerosols and/or fine powder that is difficult to separate after the wet process.
Another method comprises passin;; streams of exhaust gas over activated charcoal filters. This leads to a reduction in the content of volatile heavy metals, e.g., mercury. However, this process is also very expensive, as it requires large amounts of highly active carbon and involves the risk of smoldering fires in the bed of coal. Moreover, due to constant abrasion, fine dust containing heavy metals is emitted, which is difficult to separate.
Various attempts have been made in the past to transform the volatile heavy metals into sulfides not easily volatilized through the use of sulfur or sulfides and to remove them from the gas stream.
In this process, sulfur is applied onto the activated charcoal and the gas stream is passed over it. The mercury is removed quite effectively but the problems regarding self-ignition and the emission of fines remain.
Another state-of-the-art process utilizes suspensions of sulfur or sulfur compounds or aqueous solutions of thionic compounds, e.g. thiocarbamide. The solutions or suspensions are blown into the gas stream, and the resultant compounds of mercury and sulfur are separated out at electrostatic filters.
The 70% separation of mercury is too low to guarantee the limit of 0.200 mg/m3, however. The insufficient Hg removal is probably due, inter alia, to the addition of water to the gas stream and the considerable content of strong acids in the gas stream when exhaust gases from refuse incinerating plants are treated.
Another alternative proposed in the past is to blow sulfur or water-20 159 7~
insoluble sulfur compounds, e.g. ZnS, together with CA(OH)Z powder into the exhaust gas stream from refuse incinerating plants and to separate mercury therefrom. Although 1 g/m3 ZnS at a temperature of from 200 to 250°C
was used, the separation of Hg was only 60 %, i.e. too low to ensure an Hg limit of 0.2 mg/m3.
Consequently, there is the need to specifically separate, perhaps without cooling steps, volatile heavy metals, particularly mercury, in their various compounds and also as elements, but also organic pollutants such as dioxines and furanes, from gas streams especially from refuse incinerating plants. Another object is to develop a simple and inexpensive process for jointly separating out volatile pollutants and acidic constituents from gas streams. For this purpose, the reduction in the content of noxious substances in the exhaust gas stream has to be so great that the existing limits, e.g. for Hg, Cd, Tl and As, can be safely observed.
The present invention solves these problems with the aid of a composition for separating out in particular heavy metals from gases and exhaust gases.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The process according to the present invention includes a first stage in which calcium hydroxides are produced which contain water-soluble salts of sulfur-containing substances which, in the second stage, are made to react with the volatile, i.e., vaporous, pollutants such as heavy metals contained in the exhaust gas in a dry or quasi-dry process, and then are separated out from the exhaust gas stream.
The water-soluble salts of sulfur-containing substances have the essential advantage that they can be dissolved in water during the slaking process or applied in finely dispersed form on the calcium hydroxide subsequent to the slaking process.
The application on surface-active substances is also greatly facilitated. The fine distribution considerably promotes reactions v~ith the heavy metals and the volatile organic pollutants.
Add to this that films of water, which proportionally dissolve the salts, form on both the calcium hydroxide and the surface-active substances. Heavy metals which are volatile as salts dissolve in the film of water and quickly react with the salts of the sulfur-containing compounds.
Precipitation of the volatile heavy metals is greatly facilitated by these mechanisms.
It is also possible, however, to use sulfur which is insoluble in water, which then combines with surface-active sub stances for better distribution or is applied in finely dispersed form on the calcium hydroxide during the slaking of quicklime.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
According to the invention, mercaptans, sulfides, polysulfides, polythionates and thiosulfates, particularly in the form of alkali and alkaline-earth compounds, are employed as water-soluble salts of sulfur-containing substances.

Precipitation of the volatile heavy metals is greatly facilitated by these mechanisms.
It is also possible, however, to use sulfur which is insoluble in water, which then combines with surface-active sub stances for better distribution or is applied in finely dispersed form on the calcium hydroxide during the slaking of quicklime.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
According to the invention, mercaptans, sulfides, polysulfides, polythionates and thiosulfates, particularly in the form of alkali and alkaline-earth compounds, are employed as water-soluble salts of sulfur-containing substances.
a, Hydrogen sulfide is also counted among the aulfides. Thiosulfate and polysulfide constitute a special group in this respect, as they give off sulfur under the influence of acids and/or heat, i.e., under reaction conditions.
Said sulfur is produced in finely dispersed form and is well suited for binding volatile heavy metals of the most varying kinds. As the exhaust gas streams from refuse incinerating plants and from other- combustion systems always contain acids, the separation of sulfur from thiosulfate is guaranteed.
A further class of compounds is represented by the water-soluble mercaptans, i.e., organic compounds comprising hydrogen sulfide groups.
A particularly preferred group of water-soluble, sulfur-containing compounds is represented by hydrogen sulfide and the water-soluble sulfides.
They react with the volatile heavy metals and form insoluble sulfides not easily volatilized.
Suitable water-soluble sulfides include sodium hydrogen sulfide, sodium sulfide, and alkali and alkaline-earth sulfides.
The sulfides have the drawback that at high temperatures, e.g., 200°C, they are oxidized to a large extent and are therefore no longer available to the separation of the volatile heavy metals.
The polysulfides of the general formula MZSn, wherein n is 2, 3, 4, 5 or more and M symbolizes metals, are also well suited as a group giving off sulfur.
Under the influence of acids, these polysulfides give off sulfur which, together with the hydrogen sulfide also released, very actively acts on the volatile heavy metals.
The salts of polythionic acids ca.n also be used as sulfur-releasing ~_ . ,~,.
<~
compounds. Under the influence of acids, they salts of polythionic acids decompose into sulfur, sulfurous acid and sulfuric acid. The sulfur which is thus set free is also excellently suited for binding volatile heavy metals contained in gas and exhaust gas streams.
A preferred process for separating; out volatile heavy metals from gases and exhaust gases according to the invention comprises employing the afore-mentioned water-soluble sulfur compounds together with calcium hydroxide, either applied on calcium hydroxide or mixed with calcium hydroxide.
Dry powders or powders containing water on the basis of calcium hydroxide which are to be used for the removal of heavy metals from gases and exhaust gases are produced, according to the invention, by adding water-soluble salts of sulfur-containing substances or surface-active substances and water-soluble salts of sulfur-containing substances or sulfur on its ov~-n or sulfur applied on surface-active substances to the quicklime prior to the slaking; thereof and/or to the slaking water during the slaking process and/or to the calcium. hydroxide subsequent to the slaking process.
The combination of sulfur-containing compounds with calcium hydroxide is preferably brought about by adding the sulfur-containing compounds to the water required for slaking.
One embodiment of the present invention, for example, comprises slaking thiosulfates in the slaking water and then using the solution for slaking quicklime. The thiosulfate is evenly dispersed in very fine form over the calcium ~_ .
hydroxide and is therefore available in a p;~rticularly reactive form for further conversion.
The slaking process may also comprise the steps of initial, partial slaking with pure water and subsequent, complete slab;ing with water containing the water-soluble salts of sulfur-containing substances.
It is also possible, however, to apply the above-mentioned sulfur-containing compounds either in solid form. as fine powders or in dissolved, concentrated form on calcium hydroxide.
If they are subsequently applied as solutions on calcium hydroxide, a calcium hydroxide powder which may contain up to 3 wt.%, occasionally up to 5 wt.% water is obtained. Preferably, the water content, if water is present, is wt.%, more preferably, 0.5-3.0 wt.%.
Another possible method for combining the sulfur-containing compounds and calcium hydroxide is to add these substances to the quicklime and subsequently slake the latter. In any of these cases, the sulfur-containing compounds are present in finely dispersed form in calcium l':~ydroxide. This production process has the essential advantage that quicklime and the sulfur-containing compounds are intimately pre-mixed, e.g., in lime works, and then slaked at the user's to form milk of lime, amongst others. This makes it superfluous for the user to provide additional facilities.
The content of water-soluble salts of the sulfur-containing substances lies in the range of from 0.01 to 5 wt.%, preferably 0.1 to 1 wt.%, especially 0.2 to 0.6 .
wt.%, based on reactive calcium hydroxide.
In accordance with the quantity of volatile heavy metals contained in the exhaust gases, highly doped calcium. hydroxides or doped Ca(OH)2 compositions, the amount of which varies in response to the adjustment in the course of operation, can be employed.
The combination of the sulfur-containing compounds mentioned with calcium hydroxide is particularly suitable when hydrogen sulfide or substances forming hydrogen sulfide, e.g., polysulfides or polythionic acids, or hydrogen sulfide and water-soluble sulfides are used. Because calcium hydroxide is employed in large surplus relative to the sulfur-containing compounds, released hydrogen sulfide compounds can be immediately neutralized as acids by calcium hydroxide. On further influence of oxygen at elevated temperature, the sulfides are then transformed into odorless compounds, particularly sulfites and sulfates.
According to the invention, compositions can also include 0.5 to 10 wt.% of surface-active substances, based on the calcium hydroxide.
The suitable surface-active substances in question are activated charcoal, open-hearth lignite coke, silica gel, crystalline silica and/or activated aluminum oxide.
The sulfur-containing substances can be applied on the surface-active substances via aqueous solutions or mechanically mixed with the surface-active substances.
Preferably, they are best applied on the surface-active substances in an r...
independent processing stage, but they can also be applied successfully during the slaking process.
This can be accomplished by mi:!cing the water-soluble salts of sulfur-containing substances and the surface-active substances with quicklime and then slaking the latter. It is also possible, however, to mix quicklime with the surface-active substances and subsequently slake the mixture with water containing the salts of the substances indicated.
The water-soluble sulfides, polysulfides, mercaptans, thiosulfates and polythionic acids can be readily applied on open-hearth lignite coke, for example, and produced in dry form by vaporization of the water. If necessary, these sulfur-releasing compounds can already be pre-treated with acids so that sulfur is present in finely dispersed form on the surface-active substances.
Surface-active substances are well suited for separating out volatile heavy metals. In most cases, they are capable of binding heavy metals on their own, but this effect can be strongly increased by the presence of sulfur-containing compounds.
The surface-active substances also effect the separation of most of the volatile organic pollutants. These include, in p;~rticular, ecotoxic pollutants such as chlorinated dioxines and furanes, chlorinated hydrocarbons like hexachlorobenzene, hexachlorocyclohexane, trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene, polyaromatic hydrocarbons like benco(a)pyrene, and other volatile pollutants, as indicated in Classes I to III of organic pollutants, Classes I to III of the carcinogenic substances and Classes I to IV of inorganic harmful substances of "Technische Anleitung Luft (TA Luft)" of the Federal Republic of Germany of the year 1986.
Another way of combining surface-active substances which are in the solid form and the water-soluble salts of sulfur-containing substances which are in finely dispersed form is to subject them to a pulverization or a mixing process.
It is also advantageous to employ the combination of calcium hydroxide, surface-active substances and finely powdered sulfur. The sulfur content is 0.5 to 5 wt.% on the basis of reactive calcium hydroxide. Production is accomplished either in the process of slaking quicklime or subsequent to slaking by adding a mixture of powdered sulfur and surface-active substance to the calcium hydroxide.
The use of a mixture consisting of Ca(OH)2, surface-active substance and sulfur has considerable advantages over state-of-the-art processes. The essential advantage is that the burning of sulfur does not have any adverse consequences at temperatures of from 150 to 400°C at which the exhaust gases are purified. Nascent SOZ is immediately absorbed by Ca(OH)Z; sulfur burning on a fabric filter does not cause perforation of the filter since CA(OH)2 powder forms a protective layer.
An embodiment of the invention consists in treating the gas or exhaust gas streams with sulfur compounds in the temperature range of from 0 to 400°C, preferably 20 to 300°C, especially 80 to 250°C.
At temperatures higher than 400°C, there is the risk of quick combustion of the sulfur containing compounds. Preferably, the temperature is in the range of from 20° to about 300°C. Most exhaust gases have a temperature of from 200 to 250°C when they exit from boilers subsequent to the purification plants.
It is therefore of particular interest that the volatile pollutants are separated out from the hot exhaust gases at 200 to 250°C. Sulfur, the thiosulfates, polysulfides and the salts of polythionic acids are suited for this purpose. Particularly well suited to this effect are sulfur and the thiosulfates, as they are stable with respect to temperature and are capable of quickly reacting with the volatile heavy metals at high temperatures.
The ratio of the sulfur compounds to the heavy metals to be separated out is characterized in that the heavy metals which are present in very small amounts can be reacted with a considerable surplus of sulfur containing compounds without involving high costs.
According to the invention, it is advisable to use sodium thiosulfate on mercury in an amount that is 1 to 1000 times, preferably 25 to 500 times, the amount of mercury. By the term "amount" it is understood that in the case of a multiplying factor of 1, a unit of weight of mercury is reacted with the same unit of weight of sodium thiosulfate.
Preferably, the amount of sodium thiosulfate is 25 to 500 times the amount of mercury. When such a stoichiometric ratio is employed, the volatile heavy metals can be reliably removed without the process becoming uneconomical.
Furthermore, when sulfur is used, the amount ranges of from 5 to 2000, preferably 25 to 500. "Amount" is employed in ,the same manner as discussed above.
The advantage of sulfur-releasing compounds such as thiosulfate resides precisely in the fact that the sulfur is present in finely dispersed form upon A
decomposition under the influence of acids.
The essential advantage of the process according to the invention is that the water-soluble salts of sulfur-containing substances used for binding the volatile heavy metals contained in the exhaust gases can be introduced in the gas stream with considerable amounts of Ca(OH)2 powder as carrier. This means efficient distribution of the sulfur-containing substances in the gas stream. Besides, on using a fabric filter, a reaction layer is provided which the exhaust gas to be purified has to pass.
Accordingly, Ca(OH)2 does not only have the function to act as an acid binding agent but also to provide reaction surfaces and opportunities for the sulfur-containing substances to react.
Ca(OH)Z further has the capability of capturing and neutralizing oxidation products originating from sulfur or the sulfur-containing substances, e.g., SOZ or S03. The sulfur-containing substances can therefore be used in great surplus relative to the volatile heavy metals, as emission of SOZ and S03 does not have to be expected. Consequently, separation of the volatile heavy metals can be accomplished up to 100% without problems.
Even at the high reaction temperatures of 200°C, the rate of separation of the volatile heavy metals is over 70%.
By analogy, the features according to the invention can be transferred to spray sorption. This means that the composition produced according to the invention can be suspended in water and blow-n into the gas or exhaust gas stream to be purified. It is also possible to use quicklime to which the water-soluble salts of sulfur-containing substances have been added. Upon the production of milk of lime in the plant a suspension is obtained which can also be employed as defined by the invention.
The reaction products formed from the sulfur compounds and the volatile heavy metals as well as the noxious substances bonded to the surface-active substances can be separated by employing conventional filters, preferably fabric filters or at electrostatic filters, in cyclones or in the wet process.
The method is suited for treating gases and exhaust gases from production processes, e.g. metallurgical processes, chlorine-alkali electrolysis, blast-furnace processes, and gases from power plants, refuse incinerating plants, special waste incinerating plants, plants of glass and. ceramics industries, firing plants, aluminum remelting plants and combustion plants.
It can be used for exhaust gas purification processes including dry sorption, dry sorption with water conditioning; and spray sorption.

Said sulfur is produced in finely dispersed form and is well suited for binding volatile heavy metals of the most varying kinds. As the exhaust gas streams from refuse incinerating plants and from other- combustion systems always contain acids, the separation of sulfur from thiosulfate is guaranteed.
A further class of compounds is represented by the water-soluble mercaptans, i.e., organic compounds comprising hydrogen sulfide groups.
A particularly preferred group of water-soluble, sulfur-containing compounds is represented by hydrogen sulfide and the water-soluble sulfides.
They react with the volatile heavy metals and form insoluble sulfides not easily volatilized.
Suitable water-soluble sulfides include sodium hydrogen sulfide, sodium sulfide, and alkali and alkaline-earth sulfides.
The sulfides have the drawback that at high temperatures, e.g., 200°C, they are oxidized to a large extent and are therefore no longer available to the separation of the volatile heavy metals.
The polysulfides of the general formula MZSn, wherein n is 2, 3, 4, 5 or more and M symbolizes metals, are also well suited as a group giving off sulfur.
Under the influence of acids, these polysulfides give off sulfur which, together with the hydrogen sulfide also released, very actively acts on the volatile heavy metals.
The salts of polythionic acids ca.n also be used as sulfur-releasing ~_ . ,~,.
<~
compounds. Under the influence of acids, they salts of polythionic acids decompose into sulfur, sulfurous acid and sulfuric acid. The sulfur which is thus set free is also excellently suited for binding volatile heavy metals contained in gas and exhaust gas streams.
A preferred process for separating; out volatile heavy metals from gases and exhaust gases according to the invention comprises employing the afore-mentioned water-soluble sulfur compounds together with calcium hydroxide, either applied on calcium hydroxide or mixed with calcium hydroxide.
Dry powders or powders containing water on the basis of calcium hydroxide which are to be used for the removal of heavy metals from gases and exhaust gases are produced, according to the invention, by adding water-soluble salts of sulfur-containing substances or surface-active substances and water-soluble salts of sulfur-containing substances or sulfur on its ov~-n or sulfur applied on surface-active substances to the quicklime prior to the slaking; thereof and/or to the slaking water during the slaking process and/or to the calcium. hydroxide subsequent to the slaking process.
The combination of sulfur-containing compounds with calcium hydroxide is preferably brought about by adding the sulfur-containing compounds to the water required for slaking.
One embodiment of the present invention, for example, comprises slaking thiosulfates in the slaking water and then using the solution for slaking quicklime. The thiosulfate is evenly dispersed in very fine form over the calcium ~_ .
hydroxide and is therefore available in a p;~rticularly reactive form for further conversion.
The slaking process may also comprise the steps of initial, partial slaking with pure water and subsequent, complete slab;ing with water containing the water-soluble salts of sulfur-containing substances.
It is also possible, however, to apply the above-mentioned sulfur-containing compounds either in solid form. as fine powders or in dissolved, concentrated form on calcium hydroxide.
If they are subsequently applied as solutions on calcium hydroxide, a calcium hydroxide powder which may contain up to 3 wt.%, occasionally up to 5 wt.% water is obtained. Preferably, the water content, if water is present, is wt.%, more preferably, 0.5-3.0 wt.%.
Another possible method for combining the sulfur-containing compounds and calcium hydroxide is to add these substances to the quicklime and subsequently slake the latter. In any of these cases, the sulfur-containing compounds are present in finely dispersed form in calcium l':~ydroxide. This production process has the essential advantage that quicklime and the sulfur-containing compounds are intimately pre-mixed, e.g., in lime works, and then slaked at the user's to form milk of lime, amongst others. This makes it superfluous for the user to provide additional facilities.
The content of water-soluble salts of the sulfur-containing substances lies in the range of from 0.01 to 5 wt.%, preferably 0.1 to 1 wt.%, especially 0.2 to 0.6 .
wt.%, based on reactive calcium hydroxide.
In accordance with the quantity of volatile heavy metals contained in the exhaust gases, highly doped calcium. hydroxides or doped Ca(OH)2 compositions, the amount of which varies in response to the adjustment in the course of operation, can be employed.
The combination of the sulfur-containing compounds mentioned with calcium hydroxide is particularly suitable when hydrogen sulfide or substances forming hydrogen sulfide, e.g., polysulfides or polythionic acids, or hydrogen sulfide and water-soluble sulfides are used. Because calcium hydroxide is employed in large surplus relative to the sulfur-containing compounds, released hydrogen sulfide compounds can be immediately neutralized as acids by calcium hydroxide. On further influence of oxygen at elevated temperature, the sulfides are then transformed into odorless compounds, particularly sulfites and sulfates.
According to the invention, compositions can also include 0.5 to 10 wt.% of surface-active substances, based on the calcium hydroxide.
The suitable surface-active substances in question are activated charcoal, open-hearth lignite coke, silica gel, crystalline silica and/or activated aluminum oxide.
The sulfur-containing substances can be applied on the surface-active substances via aqueous solutions or mechanically mixed with the surface-active substances.
Preferably, they are best applied on the surface-active substances in an r...
independent processing stage, but they can also be applied successfully during the slaking process.
This can be accomplished by mi:!cing the water-soluble salts of sulfur-containing substances and the surface-active substances with quicklime and then slaking the latter. It is also possible, however, to mix quicklime with the surface-active substances and subsequently slake the mixture with water containing the salts of the substances indicated.
The water-soluble sulfides, polysulfides, mercaptans, thiosulfates and polythionic acids can be readily applied on open-hearth lignite coke, for example, and produced in dry form by vaporization of the water. If necessary, these sulfur-releasing compounds can already be pre-treated with acids so that sulfur is present in finely dispersed form on the surface-active substances.
Surface-active substances are well suited for separating out volatile heavy metals. In most cases, they are capable of binding heavy metals on their own, but this effect can be strongly increased by the presence of sulfur-containing compounds.
The surface-active substances also effect the separation of most of the volatile organic pollutants. These include, in p;~rticular, ecotoxic pollutants such as chlorinated dioxines and furanes, chlorinated hydrocarbons like hexachlorobenzene, hexachlorocyclohexane, trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene, polyaromatic hydrocarbons like benco(a)pyrene, and other volatile pollutants, as indicated in Classes I to III of organic pollutants, Classes I to III of the carcinogenic substances and Classes I to IV of inorganic harmful substances of "Technische Anleitung Luft (TA Luft)" of the Federal Republic of Germany of the year 1986.
Another way of combining surface-active substances which are in the solid form and the water-soluble salts of sulfur-containing substances which are in finely dispersed form is to subject them to a pulverization or a mixing process.
It is also advantageous to employ the combination of calcium hydroxide, surface-active substances and finely powdered sulfur. The sulfur content is 0.5 to 5 wt.% on the basis of reactive calcium hydroxide. Production is accomplished either in the process of slaking quicklime or subsequent to slaking by adding a mixture of powdered sulfur and surface-active substance to the calcium hydroxide.
The use of a mixture consisting of Ca(OH)2, surface-active substance and sulfur has considerable advantages over state-of-the-art processes. The essential advantage is that the burning of sulfur does not have any adverse consequences at temperatures of from 150 to 400°C at which the exhaust gases are purified. Nascent SOZ is immediately absorbed by Ca(OH)Z; sulfur burning on a fabric filter does not cause perforation of the filter since CA(OH)2 powder forms a protective layer.
An embodiment of the invention consists in treating the gas or exhaust gas streams with sulfur compounds in the temperature range of from 0 to 400°C, preferably 20 to 300°C, especially 80 to 250°C.
At temperatures higher than 400°C, there is the risk of quick combustion of the sulfur containing compounds. Preferably, the temperature is in the range of from 20° to about 300°C. Most exhaust gases have a temperature of from 200 to 250°C when they exit from boilers subsequent to the purification plants.
It is therefore of particular interest that the volatile pollutants are separated out from the hot exhaust gases at 200 to 250°C. Sulfur, the thiosulfates, polysulfides and the salts of polythionic acids are suited for this purpose. Particularly well suited to this effect are sulfur and the thiosulfates, as they are stable with respect to temperature and are capable of quickly reacting with the volatile heavy metals at high temperatures.
The ratio of the sulfur compounds to the heavy metals to be separated out is characterized in that the heavy metals which are present in very small amounts can be reacted with a considerable surplus of sulfur containing compounds without involving high costs.
According to the invention, it is advisable to use sodium thiosulfate on mercury in an amount that is 1 to 1000 times, preferably 25 to 500 times, the amount of mercury. By the term "amount" it is understood that in the case of a multiplying factor of 1, a unit of weight of mercury is reacted with the same unit of weight of sodium thiosulfate.
Preferably, the amount of sodium thiosulfate is 25 to 500 times the amount of mercury. When such a stoichiometric ratio is employed, the volatile heavy metals can be reliably removed without the process becoming uneconomical.
Furthermore, when sulfur is used, the amount ranges of from 5 to 2000, preferably 25 to 500. "Amount" is employed in ,the same manner as discussed above.
The advantage of sulfur-releasing compounds such as thiosulfate resides precisely in the fact that the sulfur is present in finely dispersed form upon A
decomposition under the influence of acids.
The essential advantage of the process according to the invention is that the water-soluble salts of sulfur-containing substances used for binding the volatile heavy metals contained in the exhaust gases can be introduced in the gas stream with considerable amounts of Ca(OH)2 powder as carrier. This means efficient distribution of the sulfur-containing substances in the gas stream. Besides, on using a fabric filter, a reaction layer is provided which the exhaust gas to be purified has to pass.
Accordingly, Ca(OH)2 does not only have the function to act as an acid binding agent but also to provide reaction surfaces and opportunities for the sulfur-containing substances to react.
Ca(OH)Z further has the capability of capturing and neutralizing oxidation products originating from sulfur or the sulfur-containing substances, e.g., SOZ or S03. The sulfur-containing substances can therefore be used in great surplus relative to the volatile heavy metals, as emission of SOZ and S03 does not have to be expected. Consequently, separation of the volatile heavy metals can be accomplished up to 100% without problems.
Even at the high reaction temperatures of 200°C, the rate of separation of the volatile heavy metals is over 70%.
By analogy, the features according to the invention can be transferred to spray sorption. This means that the composition produced according to the invention can be suspended in water and blow-n into the gas or exhaust gas stream to be purified. It is also possible to use quicklime to which the water-soluble salts of sulfur-containing substances have been added. Upon the production of milk of lime in the plant a suspension is obtained which can also be employed as defined by the invention.
The reaction products formed from the sulfur compounds and the volatile heavy metals as well as the noxious substances bonded to the surface-active substances can be separated by employing conventional filters, preferably fabric filters or at electrostatic filters, in cyclones or in the wet process.
The method is suited for treating gases and exhaust gases from production processes, e.g. metallurgical processes, chlorine-alkali electrolysis, blast-furnace processes, and gases from power plants, refuse incinerating plants, special waste incinerating plants, plants of glass and. ceramics industries, firing plants, aluminum remelting plants and combustion plants.
It can be used for exhaust gas purification processes including dry sorption, dry sorption with water conditioning; and spray sorption.
