Abstract
In this paper, the conversion process and the existing forms of mercury in the course of coal firing are first analyzed, and different methods to measure mercury are introduced; To assess the mercury emission levels of boilers in large power plants, through testing the mercury content in combustion products of the boiler in 700 MW unit under different loads in one power plant of Jiangxi Province, we analyzed the formation distribution of mercury emissions and the effect of low temperature economizer on the mercury concentration before and after the ESP, and acquired the mercury emission characteristics of 700 MW boiler. In study, we found that mercury in the coal burnt in 700 MW boiler was mainly discharged in the form of gas, with a small amount existing in burnt solids. The change of gaseous mercury before and after the ESP is not obvious, but the concentration of bivalent mercury is higher than that of zero-valent mercury; and more than 90% of the particulate mercury is removed. The low temperature economizer in operation can obviously reduce the concentration of mercury in flue gas at the ESP outlet by 30.8%.
