Fundamentals of Mercury Oxidation in Flue Gas

摘要: The objective of this project is to understand the importance and contribution gas-phase solid-phase coal constituents in mercury oxidation reactions. involves both experimental modeling efforts. team comprised University Utah, Reaction Engineering International, Connecticut. determine parameters homogeneous heterogeneous reactions; validate models; and, improve existing models. Parameters be studied include HCl, NO{sub x}, SO{sub 2} concentrations, ash constituents, temperature. This report summarizes Year 2 results for tasks. Experiments reactor are underway interesting suggested that a more comprehensive look at catalyzed surface reactions was needed. Therefore, much work has focused on In addition, various chemical kinetic models have been explored an attempt explain some discrepancies between effort others.
