Property Analysis of Natural Brucite and Its Application as Sulfur Dioxide Absorbent

천연 Brucite의 물성분석 및 이산화황 흡수제로의 응용

  • Published : 2009.12.31

Abstract

$Mg(OH)_2$ slurry was prepared by using natural mineral brucite mined in Liaoning province in China, and its de-$SO_x$ efficiency was compared with that of $Mg(OH)_2$ slurry prepared by thermal decomposition and hydration of magnesite. The physical and chemical characteristics of $Mg(OH)_2$ Powders prepared from brucite and magnesite were similar. However, the layered plate structure of $Mg(OH)_2$ crystal particles prepared from brucite had grown more stably. The desulfurization efficiency of $Mg(OH)_2$ slurry prepared from brucite was slightly higher than that of magnesite. Brucite may be used as a new absorbent for the desulfurization of flue gas in the future.

중국 Liaoning에서 산출된 천연 brucite를 원료로 $Mg(OH)_2$ slurry를 제조하고, 그 탈황 성능을 magnesite를 원료로 열분해 및 수화반응으로 제조된, $Mg(OH)_2$ slurry와 비교하였다. Brucite와 magnesite를 원료로 제조된 $Mg(OH)_2$ 분말의 물리/화학적 특성은 유사했지만, brucite를 원료로 제조된 $Mg(OH)_2$ 결정입자의 판상구조가 보다 안정적으로 발달되어 있었다. Brucite와 magnesite를 원료로 제조된 $Mg(OH)_2$ slurry의 탈황효율은 brucite가 조금 높았다. Brucite를 배연탈황용 흡수제로 충분히 적용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
