Definitions
- Thermal stability can be problematic with PACs and other sorbents; e.g., when a PAC is used in the treatment of warm or hot gaseous effluents or when packaged or collected in bulk amounts, self-ignition can result from unmitigated oxidation of the PAC and can lead to its smoldering or burning.
- Bulk PAC can be encountered, e.g., when the PAC is packaged, such as in super-sacks or when formed as a filter cake in a FF unit or collected in silos or hoppers associated with an ESP, etc.
- Self-ignition can be exacerbated by the PAC being warm or hot as could be the case when treating coal- fired boiler effluents.
- compositions of this invention comprise a bromine source, a chlorine source and a sorbent capable of adsorbing bromine and chlorine.
- This invention also provides such compositions and processes wherein the composition has an improved thermal stability as compared to that of the sorbent by itself.
- reducing mercury emissions and/or “to reduce mercury emissions” means removing and/or to remove any amount of mercury from the emissions by any mechanism, e.g., adsorption or absorption, such that the amount of mercury emitted into the atmosphere upon burning of the fuel is reduced as compared to the amount that would be emitted absent use of the compositions and/or processes of this invention.
- Sorbent compositions of this invention can be added to a combustion gas stream resulting from combustion of a combustible fuel.

- the sorbent can comprise a carbonaceous substrate, activated carbon, a wood-derived activated carbon, or a coconut shell-derived activated carbon
- the composition can have a PIO that is at least about 10 deg C higher than the PIO of the sorbent alone
- Processes of this invention can comprise adding a composition comprising bromine chloride and a sorbent capable of adsorbing bromine and chfo ⁇ ne to a combustible fuel prior to and/or during combustion of the combustible fuel, combusting the combustible fuel, producing a combustion gas stream, thereby reducing mercury emissions from the combustion gas stream
- Sorbents that are suitable for use in this invention include, for example, activated carbon, activated charcoal, activated coke, carbon black, powdered coal, char, unburned or partially-burned carbon from a combustion process, kaolinites or other clays zeolites, alumina, and other carbonaceous substrates
- Wood-derived PACs are particularly suitable for use in this invention, including those derived from woody materials such sawdust, woodchips, or other particulate wood products
- coconut shell-derived PACs are also suitable for use in this invention
- Other suitable sorbents will be known, or may come to be known to those skilled in the art and having the benefit of the teachings of this specification
- Suitable bromine sources for use in this invention include Br 2 and bromine precursors such as HBr NaBr and KBr are not suitable bromine sources for use in this invention
- bromine sources of this invention exclude NaBr and KBr, and can be referred to as non-sodium or potassium derived bromine sources
- Suitable chlorine sources include Cl 2 and chlorine precursors such as HCI
- suitable sources for Br 2 and/or Cl 2 include compounds comprising both bromine and chlorine precursors, e g , bromine chloride or chlorobromide
- suitable bromine and/or chlorine sources are known to those skilled in the art, or may come to be known to those skilled in the art and having the benefit of the teachings of this specification Compositions as used in this invention can comprise bromine chloride, a bromine source, and a chlorine source
- Cooling is stopped and stopcock 14 is opened to introduce bromine chloride 19 onto the activated carbon 8 in column 10 Cooling water is flowed through the cooling jacket 11 to remove the heat of adsorption produced during this process Adsorption is typically completed within several hours, depending upon the size of the batch produced Excess bromine chloride is removed by opening stopcock 12 and passing a stream of air or nitrogen through the column 10 at room temperature and/or optionally heating up to 150 deg C via heating jacket 1 1
- the now bromine chloride-treated activated carbon 8 is transferred to a suitable container (not shown in the Figure) and blended for use
- Other suitable procedures for incorporating bromine and chlorine onto sorbents such as activated carbon will be known, or may come to be known to those skilled in the art and having the benefit of the teachings of this specification
- Thermal stability of a substance can be assessed e g via the temperature of initial energy release a k a , the point of initial oxidation (PIO) of the substance
- PIO point of initial oxidation
- the PIO of compositions and/or sorbents of this invention is defined as the temperature at which the heat flow, as determined by DSC is 1 0 W/g with the baseline corrected to zero at 100 deg C
- a composition of this invention has improved thermal stability as compared to the sorbent that is used in such composition in that the composition has a PIO that is at least about 10 deg C higher than the PIO of the sorbent alone
- a composition of this invention can have a PIO that is at least about 10 deg C to about 94 deg C, or about 10 deg C to about 90 deg C, or about 10 deg C to about 50 deg C, or about 20 deg C to about 80 deg C, higher than the PIO of the sorbent alone
- Processes and sorbent compositions of this invention are suitable for reducing mercury emissions in combustion gas streams resulting from combustion of any combustible fuel comprising mercury
- combustible fuels include coal, natural gas, solid or fluid waste and other substances
- the wood-derived PAC (powdered activated carbon) (prepared by the thermal activation process) utilized in these examples was analyzed by DSC-TGA The point of initial energy release (PIO) was 267 deg C
- Example 3 Comparative Example. Treatment of PAC with Chlorine [0023] PAC of Example 1 (9 5 g) was treated with a known amount of gaseous elemental chlorine (0 53 g) Elemental analysis indicated a PAC chlorine content of 6 wt% Analysis by DSC indicated that the PIO was 356 deg C
- Example 5 Comparative Example. Treatment of PAC with Sodium Bromide [0025] The PAC of Example 1 was treated with a known quantity of sodium bromide. Elemental analysis indicated a PAC bromide content of 5 wt% Analysis by DSC indicated that the PIO was 275 deg C Example 6. Comparative Example. Treatment of PAC with Potassium Bromide [0026] The PAC of Example 1 was treated with a known quantity of potassium bromide Elemental analysis indicated a PAC bromide content of 5 wt% Analysis by DSC indicated that the PIO was 270 deg C
- compositions of this invention which comprise a bromine source, a chlorine source, and a sorbent capable of adsorbing bromine and chlorine have a PIO that is not only higher than the PIO of the sorbent itself, but is nearly as high as the PIO of a composition comprising the sorbent and a bromine source ( ⁇ e , no measurable amounts of chlorine are present)
- the mercury emission reduction capability of compositions and processes of this invention is very good, although not quite as good as compositions consisting essentially of sorbent and bromine (i.e , no measurable chlorine or other halogens) This is surprising because chlorine by itself can actually reduce the mercury emission reduction capability of a sorbent
- This invention is particularly commercially advantageous given that chlorine is markedly less costly than bromine
- This invention is particularly advantageous in that it accommodates the use of chlorine, which is less expensive than bromine, and the use of wood-derived activated carbon in mercury capture
