Abstract
The influences of the regeneration temperature and SO2volume fraction on regeneration kinetics behavior of Fe2O3 sorbent as a high-temperature desulfurization sorbent were researched by TGA (Thermos gravimetric analyzer) in this work. The main regeneration product of iron oxide desulfurization sorbent was Fe2O3 and sulfur in SO2 atmosphere which has an important practical significance for pollution control of H2Sandrecycleofsulfur. The results indicate that Fe2O3 desulfurization sorbent was completely regenerated at temperature of 725-775 °C and the higher regeneration temperature and volume fraction of SO2 is benefit to improve regeneration reaction rate. The regeneration reaction of Fe2O3 sorbent in SO2atmosphere can be first order reaction obtained by the equivalent grain model, and the controlling process of regeneration reaction is change from the chemical reaction control to the diffusion control in the whole regeneration process. The chemical reaction apparent activation energy and the corresponding frequency factor of chemical reaction are 145.31 kJ/mol and 0.0063 m/s, respectively. And that of diffusion are 50.73 kJ/mol and 4.38×10-3 m2/s, respectively.
