Abstract

Many companies use two-phase absorbents (CaCO3 suspension) for waste gases purification from SO2. A qualitative theoretical analysis of the absorption kinetics in the cases of two-phase absorbent, using the convection-diffusion type of model, is presented. It is shown that the low CaCO3 concentration lead to very small chemical reaction rate and as a result the absorption rate is limited by the physical absorption of SO2 in water, i.e. the process efficiency is very small. An average concentration model for quantitative analysis of the absorption process and an iterative numerical algorithm for the model equations solution is proposed.
