Abstract

Combustion-generated hydrogen chloride (HCl) is considered to be a very hazardous acid gaseous pollutant. This paper presents a laboratory study on the dry adsorption of HCl. The experiments were conducted in a dual-layer granular bed filter, at gas temperatures of 500°C–700°C and (Ca)/ (Cl)molar ratios of 1.0–5.0 using the silver nitrate titration method by dry adsorbent powders Ca(OH) . Mainly, the adsorption efficiency of HCl and utilization efficiency of Calcium were studied, by varying relevant factors including (Ca)/ (Cl), temperature, feeding method, water vapor and CO . With a relatively higher HCl concentration of 1000 ppm, the experimental results revealed that 600°C may be the optimum temperature for HCl adsorption when optimum (Ca)/ (Cl) was 2.5 in our tests. The results also demonstrated that the feeding at a constant pressure was more effective, and the HCl adsorption efficiency could rapidly reach over 90% with (Ca)/ (Cl) = 2.5 at 600°C. Furthermore, the HCl adsorption efficiency was found to be slightly promoted by water vapor, while could be impeded by CO , and the utilization efficiency of calcium could be up to 74.4% without CO , while was only 36.8% with CO when (Ca)/ (Cl) was 2.5 at 600°C.
