Abstract
In order to develop a single-step process for removing SO 2, NO, CO 2 in flue gas simultaneously by co-adsorption method. Pure component adsorption equilibrium and kinetics of SO 2, NO, and CO 2 on zeolite NaY, NaX, CaA were obtained respectively. Equilibrium data were analyzed by equilibrium model and Henry's law constant. The results suggest that Adsorption affinity follows the trend SO 2 > CO 2 > NO for the same adsorbent. Zeolite with stronger polar surface is a more promising adsorbent candidate. Kinetics behavior was investigated using the breakthrough curve method. The overall mass transfer coefficient and diffusivity factor were determined by a linear driving force model. The results are indicative of micropore diffusion controlling mechanism. NaY zeolite has the minimum resistance of mass transfer duo to the wide pore distribution and large pore amount. CaA zeolite exhibits the highest spatial hindered effect. Finally, co-adsorption effect of SO 2, NO, and CO 2 were investigated by multi-components breakthrough method. SO 2 and NO may form new adsorbed species, however, CO 2 presents a fast breakthrough. Chemical adsorption causes SO 2 transforms to SO 4 2−, however, element N and C are not detected in adsorbed zeolites.
