Abstract
In this paper, SOX (SO2 and SO3) removal and emission characteristics of wet limestone-gypsum flue gas desulfurization (WFGD) are investigated based on the data collected from 95 ultra-low emission coal-fired power units. The study shows that the overall removal efficiency of single-absorber is above 97.5%, in which the SO3 removal efficiency is between 31% and 70%. When the inner structures are installed into the spray absorber, the correlation between the inlet SO2 concentration and SOX removal efficiency becomes more obvious, however, with a tray absorber, the maximum SO2 removal efficiency of double-absorber reaches 99.74%, in which the SO3 removal efficiency is between 27% and 81%. With a normal spray absorber, the higher inlet concentration, the higher removal efficiency it reaches, while with a tray absorber, the result is opposite. With a single-absorber, there is little correlation between flue gas temperature drop and SO2 removal efficiency. Large temperature drop harms the improvement of overall SO2 removal efficiency but is beneficial to SO3 removal. By the calculation of SOX emission performance model, average emission performances of SO2 and SO3 are acquired, which are about 90–107 mg/(kW·h) and 81–97 mg/(kW·h), respectively.
