Abstract:
Experiments on the simultaneous removal of mercury (Hg0), sulphur dioxide (SO2) and nitric oxide (NO) from flue gas using sodium chlorite solution (NaClO2) were carried out in a bench-scale bubbling reactor. The effect of initial pH on Hg0 removal efficiency was investigated. The results show that the efficiency of Hg0 removal was higher in acid condition. The effect of the concentrations of SO2 and NO from simulated flue gas on Hg0 removal efficiency with NaClO2 solution was examined. The Hg0 removal efficiency can be significantly improved by adding NO to flue gas, when sufficient NaClO2 solution was available. In the experiment, an amount of NaClO2 was found to be consumed by SO2. The addition of SO2 to simulated flue gas did not significantly affect the efficiency of Hg0 removal. Moreover, under the acid condition, the simultaneous removal of Hg0, SO2 and NO indicated that NaClO2 solution was an excellent absorbent. Finally, the reaction mechanism between Hg0, SO2, NO and NaClO2 is discussed.

SN2 Reaction: Kinetics
In a chemical reaction, a relationship exists between the concentration of reactants and the rate at which the reaction proceeds. The study to measure this relationship is known as the kinetics of a chemical reaction. Kinetic studies are used to deduce the rate law of a chemical reaction, which provides information about the species involved during the transition state of the rate-determining step. Thus, kinetic studies help to derive the mechanism of a reaction.
