[Desulfurization characteristic of organic calcium at high temperature].

ABSTRACT

Aim to control the emission of SO2 during coal combustion, desulfurization characteristic of organic calcium was studied by intelligent sulfur determination analyzer. Sulfur releasing curve changed from two "peak value" to one for addition of organic calcium, with velocity of SO2 release decreasing. Efficiency of sulfur reduction was double when organic calcium was used under 1 000 degrees C compared to limestone, and reduction efficiency of calcium magnesium acetate was 73.84%. Sulfur content, furnace temperature, calcium/sulfur ratio and paticle's diameter were important factors as for desulfurizing rate. Sulfur removal efficiency was improved with coal's sulfur content increasing or particle's diameter decreasing. Decreasing degree of reduction efficiency lowered with sulfur content increasing as temperature improved. Efficiency remained high level as 59.08% by calcium magnesium acetate at 1 200 degrees C. Perfect efficiency could be reached as calcium/sulfur ratio being one and augmentation degree was inapparent with more calcium addition. Therefore organic calciums are excellent absorbent for desulfurization and calcium magnesium acetate has best sulfur removal efficiency.
