In particular, for example, potassium bicarbonate can be used as a raw material for producing potassium carbonate, potassium acetate and potassium arsenite in chemical production, and can also be used as a fire extinguishing agent for petroleum and chemicals. It can also be used in medicine for supplementing potassium, treating hypokalemia, and as nutritional supplement and excipient. Can be used as baking powder, foaming salt, and chemical leavening agent in food industry. Potassium bicarbonate is commonly used as an analytical reagent in analytical chemistry. The acid regulator is used in a laboratory. The potassium bicarbonate is mainly used in the field of consumption of food, is used as a food additive to replace sodium bicarbonate in the fields of baking and acidity regulators, and is used as an agricultural fertilizer, animal husbandry, paper pulp treatment, fire extinguishers and the like. The properties of the fertilizer are similar to those of potassium carbonate, but the proportion of carbon nutrition is higher, and the proportion of potassium nutrition is slightly lower.
Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas with the largest global yield at present and is an important factor for climate warming, and according to the report of the international energy agency, the emission amount of the carbon dioxide in the world in 2010 reaches 331.6 million tons, wherein the emission amount of the carbon dioxide in China is about 83.3 million tons. Flue gas generated by burning coal, fuel gas and the like contains a large amount of carbon dioxide, has the characteristics of stability, concentration, large treatment capacity and the like, and is an important direction for realizing the emission reduction target. To mitigate pollution, the flue gas is conventionally absorbed and treated before emission. Currently, regarding the treatment and utilization of flue gas, which mainly uses an alkaline water absorption method for absorbing carbon dioxide and then desorbing and recovering carbon dioxide, as disclosed in (CN 101318651) an apparatus and a method for absorbing and recovering carbon dioxide from flue gas using ammonia water as an absorbent, the apparatus including an absorption tower and a circulation cooler connected to the absorption tower such that a high temperature absorbent is recovered from the absorption tower, cooled to a preset temperature, and then supplied again to the absorption tower to dissipate absorption heat generated when carbon dioxide is absorbed from flue gas. The method can only recover and store the carbon dioxide in the flue gas, and then release and utilize the carbon dioxide, so that the steps are complicated, and the recovery cost is high.
Therefore, how to economically and efficiently absorb and utilize the carbon dioxide in the flue gas and convert the carbon dioxide into waste becomes a problem to be solved urgently.
