Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce the consumption of an oxidizing agent and improve the mercury removing efficiency by setting the pH of a mercury absorbing solution to a specified value or less in the case of removing a sulfur oxide in combustion exhaust gas in a desulfurizing equipment and then bringing the mercury absorbing solution containing the oxidizing agent into contact with the exhaust gas and removing the mercury in the exhaust gas. SOLUTION: Exhaust gas A exhausted out of a boiler 1 is introduced into an electric dust collector 5 through a denitration equipment 2 first, an air heater 3 and a heat recovery section 4 to reduce soot and dust. Then the exhaust gas containing the soot and dust not removed therefrom is introduced into a desulfirizing equipment 6 to remove SO2. Successively the exhaust gas exhausted from the desulfurizing equipment 6 is introduced into a mercury removing device 7, and a mercury absorbing solution containing an oxidizing agent and setting pH at 7 or less is sprayed to melt a part of the mercury into the absorbing solution and removed therefrom. The temperature of the exhaust gas exhausted from the mercury removing device 7 is raised by a reheating section 8 and then the exhaust gas is exhausted out of a stack 9. The mercury in the exhaust gas is removed efficiently by the arrangement.

An example of the prior art is disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 62-616.
FIG. 6 shows the flow of the apparatus disclosed in No. 20. The waste D is put into the combustion furnace 31 and incinerated, and the exhaust gas A generated at that time is cooled by the exhaust gas cooling device 32. Then, after the dust is removed by the electrostatic precipitator 33, the exhaust gas is introduced from the lower part of the harmful gas removing device 34, comes into contact with an alkaline aqueous solution such as sodium hydroxide, and contains chlorine, hydrochloric acid, sulfur dioxide and the like in the exhaust gas. Harmful substances react with alkalis and are removed. At this time, mercury in the exhaust gas also dissolves in the alkaline aqueous solution, but when the mercury (usually mercuric chloride: HgCl 2 ) in the liquid is reduced to metal mercury, the mercury is re-emitted from the liquid into the gas. . To prevent this, an oxidizing agent (for example, sodium hypochlorite, hydrogen peroxide) is added. At this time, the addition amount of the oxidizing agent is adjusted by measuring the redox potential and COD of the liquid. The exhaust gas A thus purified is discharged from the chimney 35.

FIG. 4 shows the relationship between the oxidation-reduction potential of the absorbing solution and the mercury removal rate. The higher the oxidation-reduction potential, the higher the mercury removal rate, and becomes substantially constant above 900 mV. Under these conditions, it is preferable to add an oxidizing agent so that the oxidation-reduction potential becomes about 900 to 1000 mV from the viewpoint of removal performance and economy. The oxidation-reduction potential measured here is a value measured using a standard hydrogen electrode as a reference electrode. However, it goes without saying that the optimum oxidation-reduction potential from the viewpoint of the mercury removal rate and economic efficiency is also affected by the mercury concentration in the gas and the spray amount of the absorbing solution. Further, here, the oxidation-reduction potential of the absorbing solution of the desulfurization device 6 is measured, and an oxidizing agent is added so that the oxidation-reduction potential of the absorbing solution of the mercury removing device 7 is always higher than the oxidation-reduction potential of the absorbing solution of the desulfurization device 6. Is also effective. This is because when the oxidation-reduction potential of the absorbing solution of the mercury removing device 7 is lower than the oxidation-reduction potential of the absorbing solution of the desulfurizing device 6, the rate at which mercury not absorbed in the desulfurizing device 6 is removed by the mercury removing device 7 is low. It is because it becomes.

FIG. 5 shows an embodiment in which a device for measuring the concentration of mercury in exhaust gas is used instead of the device 20 for measuring the oxidation-reduction potential in the embodiment shown in FIG. Absorbent B containing an oxidizing agent in the exhaust gas introduced into mercury removal tower 11 from duct 10 is pumped through nozzle 13 by pump 12 through nozzle 13.
4, the mercury in the exhaust gas is partially dissolved and removed in the absorbing solution, and then sent from the duct 15 to the desulfurization device 6. The sprayed absorbent B falls into the tank 16 and is sprayed again from the nozzle 14 by the pump 12. Duct 10
And the mercury concentration in the exhaust gas in 15 is measured by mercury concentration meters 24 and 25, respectively. The measurement result is calculated by the calculator 26, and based on the calculation result, the oxidant C stored in the tank 17 is supplied into the tank 16 through the pipe 19 by the pump 18. For example, the removal rate of mercury is calculated, and if the removal rate is low, the added amount of the oxidizing agent is increased.
