Apr 20, 2007 · boilers.6-21 Through these efforts, the Hg^sup 0^ oxidation chemistry with chlorine (Cl)-containing species was progressively elucidated. Hg leaves the high-temperature combustion zone as elemental Hg, part of which transforms into oxidized form during the postcombustion zone as flue gas cools.5,12 One-step global reaction

Reduction (SCR) equipment for NOx removal followed by flue gas desulfurization (FGD). Mercury is very effectively captured from the flue gas of boilers that fire bituminous coals and are equipped with both SCR and FGD. The catalyst of the SCR system helps to oxidize the elemental mercury in the flue gas. The oxidized mercury is

Oxidation of Mercury across Selective Catalytic Reduction increase Hg removal from the boiler. Flue-gas desulfuriz-ation scrubbers remove gaseous oxidized Hg with high efficiency but not elemental Hg. Increasing the oxidized Hg chlorine content of the blend was 100–240 g/g on a dry basis. Mercury measurements were carried out when the

A biomass feeding unit feeds biomass to a boiler. A hydrogen-chlorine monitoring unit measures hydrogen-chloride content in flue gas fed to a desulfurization equipment. A mercury monitoring unit measures mercury content in treated flue gas emitted from the desulfurization equipment. A feed-amount instruction unit instructs proper feed amount of the biomass to the biomass …

Mar 31, 2009 · A significant fraction of the Hg0 can be subsequently oxidized in the low-temperature, post-combustion environment of a coal-fired boiler. Oxidized Hg (Hg2+) is more effectively removed by air pollution control systems. For example, the water-soluble Hg2+ is much more easily captured than insoluble Hg0 in flue gas desulfurization (FGD) units.

In this work a new lab-scale method dedicated to the evaluation of both concentration and oxidation level of mercury in flue gases from pulverised fuel fired boiler was proposed. To detect the abovementioned parameters, 2 main steps need to be evaluated. Firstly, a calorimeter bomb is utilised - by a proper implementation of mass balance of mercury within substrates and …

Bromine-containing compounds (10), added to the coal (16), or to the boiler combustion furnace (14), are used to enhance the oxidation of mercury, thereby enhancing the overall removal of mercury in downstream pollution control devices. The method is applicable to utility power plants equipped with wet FGD systems, as well as those plants equipped with spray dryer absorber …

is not very effective at adsorbing mercury in coal-fired boilers. The effectiveness of activated carbon in low-halogen flue gas is increased by either adding halogen to the flue gas or by pretreating the activated carbon with a halogen. When additional mercury oxidation is needed in the flue gas, bromine has typically been the halogen used.

mercury oxidation was achieved, i.e. all mer-cury in the boiler exit flue gas was converted in its watersoluble ionic form Hg2+ (100 % Hg ion, 0 % Hg met), mainly as HgBr 2 and some HgCl 2; therefore in the existing multistage scrubbing system excellent mercury removal (abatement efficiency > 99.8 %) was re-alised, Figure 4.

Apr 06, 2005 · Field tests on mercury speciation and emission while burning Kentucky and Illinois coals with different chlorine contents were performed in a 100-MWe pulverized-coal boiler with low-NOx burners. Seven coals were used during the tests and were grouped into two sets for comparison, with the baseline coal being shared between the two sets. The first set of four …

Dec 19, 2019 · The mechanism of mercury adsorption is as follows: in the boiler (temperature of above 1400°C), mercury is in the form of metallic mercury vapors, while the chlorine (HCl) contained in the flue gas activates carbon particles in the ash, and as the flue gas cools down, Hg 0 adsorbs in the chlorinated carbon pores and undergoes oxidation.
