Abstract
The absorbent composing of Bayer red mud and water was prepared and applied to removing SO2 from flue gas. Effects of the ratio of liquid to solid (L/S), the absorption temperature, the inlet SO2 concentration, the O2 concentration, SO42- and other different components of Bayer red mud on desulfurization were conducted. The mechanism of flue gas desulfurization was also established. The results indicated that L/S was the prominent factor, followed by the inlet SO2 concentration and the temperature was the least among them. The optimum condition was as follows: L/S, the temperature and the SO2 concentration were 20:1, 25 °C and 1000 mg/m3, respectively, under the gas flow of 1.5 L/min. The desulfurization efficiency was not significantly influenced when O2 concentration was above 7%. The accumulation of SO42- inhibited the desulfurization efficiency. The alkali absorption and metal ions liquid catalytic oxidation were involved in the process, which accounted for 98.61%.
