Low-temperature flue gas adsorption desulfurization method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of dry flue gas desulfurization, and relates to a low-temperature flue gas adsorption desulfurization method.
Background
The flue gas generated by burning coal contains a large amount of SO2It is one of the main causes of air pollution. At present, the mainstream desulfurization technology of coal-fired flue gas is limestone-gypsum wet desulfurization technology, and SO is subjected to wet desulfurization2And reacting with limestone slurry to generate insoluble calcium sulfate (gypsum) for removal. The wet desulphurization uses a large amount of limestone as a desulfurizer, the serious mountain destruction is caused by the large amount of exploitation of the limestone, and the treatment problem of a power plant is also brought by the generation of a large amount of desulphurization wastewater.
In addition, the dry active coke (charcoal) desulfurization technology is one of the mature desulfurization technologies at present, and is widely applied in japan, germany and our country. The operation temperature of the active coke (carbon) dry desulfurization technology is generally 100-150 ℃ for adsorption, and the SO is absorbed at the temperature2With H in the flue gas2O and O2Reaction to form H2SO4Thus SO2By chemisorption with H2SO4The form of (2) realizes adsorption. Adsorbed H2SO4Heating for regeneration to generate high-concentration SO2To prepare products such as sulfuric acid or sulfur; or by washing with water and regenerating2SO4And (6) washing to obtain the finished product.
The adsorption and heating regeneration mechanism of the dry desulfurization of the activated coke (carbon) is as follows:
and (3) adsorption reaction: SO (SO)2+H2O+1/2O2=H2SO4
Heating and regenerating reaction: 2H2SO4+C→CO2+2SO2+2H2O (350-450 ℃ main reaction)
H2SO4+C→CO+SO2+H2O (main reaction at 450 ℃ C. or higher)
The dry active coke (charcoal) desulfurization technique has the following disadvantages:
1. sulfur capacity (SO)2Amount of adsorption) Low, generally lower than 30mg/g, large loading of active coke (carbon) and large adsorption equipment;
2. the heating regeneration temperature is high, generally higher than 350 ℃, the heat consumption is large, and the spontaneous combustion of the active coke (carbon) is easy to generate, so the contact with oxygen is prevented in the regeneration process, and the safety is poor;
3. in the heating regeneration process, active coke (carbon) participates in the reaction, and the consumption of the adsorbent is large.
