Abstract
Chlorine content in agricultural straw is high, and HCl formation during straw combustion is a challenging problem. The relationship between HCl and the formation of NOx and N2O is important and unclear. Effect of HCl in atmosphere on nitrogen transfer during wheat straw and cotton stalk pyrolysis was performed using a thermogravimetric analyzer coupled with a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer. Pyrolysis of polyvinyl chloride supplies HCl. The pathway of nitrogen transfer in the presence of HCl was studied. The results show that in the presence of HCl, the temperature corresponding to NH3 starting release during wheat straw pyrolysis increases, and those of HCN and HNCO reduce. HCl inhibits the conversion of straw–N into NH3, however, favors the transformation of straw nitrogen into HCN and HNCO.
