METHOD OF REMOVING GASEOUS SULFUR COMPOUNDS,IN PARTICULAR SULFUR DIOXIDE,FROM FURNACE COMBUSTION GASES

摘要

Method for sepg. gaseous sulphur cpds such as SO2 from furnace exhaust gases, comprises: (a) introducing a powdered alkali metal oxide and/or an alkaline with metal oxide and or a precursor thereof into the furnace as well as the S-contg material, and a gas contg. oxygen, or a solid which releases oxygen on heating is mixed with the gas contg. S leaving the furnace. (b) water or steam is sprayed separately into the furnace and or the exhaust gas to convert the oxide to hydroxide and thus reacts with the SO2; and (c) a solid is sepd. contg. alkali (ne)earth metal sulphate and/or sulphite.
