Abstract
Amount of H2S and SO2 were generated during the SCWG of sewage sludge. It is essential to reduce the sulfur concentration in syngas for depth utilization of syngas from SCWG of sewage sludge. The syngas desulfurization ability of five additives (KOH, K2CO3, NaOH, Na2CO3, AC) were tested and the result indicated that K2CO3 had the best syngas desulfurization effect while KOH could significantly promote the yield of syngas at 450°C and 4% loading. Increasing KOH and K2CO3 loading to 12% could reduce around 90% of sulfur in syngas comparing to no additives. The XPS analysis results indicated that alkali additives promoted the cyclization and oxidation of unstable sulfur compounds in raw sludge, which can convert it into stable sulfur compounds such as thiophene, sulfone and sulfate. The sulfur in liquid was mainly in the forms of sulfate, and the effect of alkali and AC additive on sulfur in liquid was relatively weak.
