O₃ oxidation combined with semi-dry method for simultaneous desulfurization and denitrification of...

With the vigorous development of China's iron and steel industry and the introduction of ultra-low emission policies, the emission of pollutants such as SO₂ and NO_x has received unprecedented attention. Considering the increase of the proportion of semi-dry desulfurization technology in the desulfurization process, several semi-dry desulphurization technologies such as flue gas circulating fluidized bed (CFB), dense flow absorber (DFA) and spray drying absorption (SDA) are briefly summarized. Moreover, a method for simultaneous treatment of SO₂ and NO_x in sintering/pelletizing flue gas by O₃ oxidation combined with semi-dry method is introduced. Meantime, the effects of key parameters such as O₃/NO molar ratio, CaSO₃, SO₂, reaction temperature, Ca/(S+2N) molar ratio, droplet size and approach to adiabatic saturation temperature (AAST) on denitrification and desulfurization are analyzed. Furthermore, the reaction mechanism of denitrification and desulfurization is further elucidated. Finally, the advantages and development prospects of the new technology are proposed.
