Desulfurization reaction in a bubble type reactor was carried out by adding three organic acids such as acetic acid, lactic acid, and antic acid to investigate the enhancement of the desulfurization performance of low-grade limestone. Desulfurization of limestone slurry without organic acids initiated to degrade at pH 5.2 or less, whereas organic acid-added limestone slurry exhibited a stable efficiency in the initial desulfurization with slurry pH ranging 4.2~4.5. At slurry pH below 4, the desulfurization performance of limestone slurry with addition of organic acids may be related to the amount of anions produced by dissociation of the organic acids. When limestone slurry had a large amount of anions, a rapid decrease in buffer capacity of slurry pH did not occur. These results were due to the acidity and dissociation of organic acids. The desulfurization performance of low-grade limestone slurry increased in the order of acetic acid (2.6%) < lactic acid (6.4%) < formic acid (16.7%).

소각시설에서 다이옥신 배출문제가 사회문제화 되면서 대부분의 소각시설이 소석회 슬러리 분무의 반건식세정기와 백필터가 연결된 공정에 분말활성탄을 분무하는 시스템으로 운영하고 있다 원래, 다이옥신이 사회문제화 되기 이전부터 소석회 슬러리 분무의 반건식 세정기가 소각시설에서 사용되었는데 이는 주로 산성가스 제거 및 백필터 보호차원의 온도조절기능이었다. 백필터의 경우도 전기집진기와 더불어 먼지를 제거하는 기능을 담당하는 방지시설이었다. (중략)

This research is an experimental investigation to find the desirable pH of slurry in the desulfurization absorber for a 1000 ㎿ coal fired power plant, operating in compliance with the Air Environmental Conservation Act and the plant's internal regulations. In case the average sulfur dioxide concentration in inflow flue gas, ${\bar{C\;in}}$ [ppm] changed to 500 ppm, 550 ppm, 600 ppm and 635 ppm after fixing inflow flue gas flow rate, generator output, pressure drop in the absorber, and oxidation air flow rate, the desirable pH of the slurry in the absorber, was 5.0, 5.2, 5.3 and 5.4. Thus, it is recommended that the desirable pH of slurry is calculated using the correlation equation, $RpH=0.0018{\times}{\bar{C\;in}}+4,2031$ when the average sulfur dioxide concentration in the inflow flue gas is in the range of 500 ppm to 635 ppm.

In this study, Seochon Thermal Power Plant No.1 for anthracite coal was tested to find the proper operation range of limestone slurry pH in the absorber tower which can be operated continuously in compliance with the Air Quality Preservation Act and Seocheon Thermal Power Division's internal regulation, sulfur dioxide average emission regulation. When operating the sulfur dioxide concentration [ppm] in the combustion gas flowing into the desulfurization absorption tower at 370, 400, 460 and 550 ppm while the main operating elements such as the flow rate of the combustion gas were fixed, the proper slurry pH Were 4.4, 4.5, 4.8 and 5.1, respectively. Therefore, it is recommended to operate with the correlation equation, R_pH=0.004×C_in+2.93 derived using sulfur dioxide and the appropriate slurry pH.

석탄이나 석유와 같은 화석연료의 연소 시 대기 중에 발생되는 황산화물의 배출저감 방법으로서 사용연료의 황 함유량을 감소시키는 연소 전 처리방법과 연소과정 중 제거방법, 연소 후 제거하는 방법으로 구분할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 전기 생산능력 40만 kW 급 중유화력 발전소의 연료 연소 후 배기가스 중 황 성분을 제거하는 방법으로 석회석 슬러리와 배기가스를 효과적으로 접촉시켜 SOx 와 먼지 등의 환경오염물질을 제거하고 부산물로 재활용 가능한 고순도의 석고를 생산하게 되는 JBR (Jet Bubbling Reactor) 형식의 습식 석회석-석고법 배연탈황 시스템을 소개하고자 한다.(중략)

화석연료의 사용증가로 인해 배출되는 산성가스인 $SO_2$, NOx 는 보건위생상 독성물질로서, 산성비의 주요 성분으로 규제의 대상이며, 이를 감소시키기 위한 노력이 활발히 진행되어 왔다. 배연가스중의 $SO_2$ 처리 공정의 대표적 예는 석회석 슬러리를 이용한 습식 탈황으로 여러 나라에서 사용되고 있으나, 폐수발생과 넓은 설치면적, 고형 폐기물의 발생 등으로 인하여 보다 개선된 공정의 개발이 요구되고 있다. 이에 유망한 기술로 제시되고 있는 것이 재생탈황공정이다. (중략)

Centrifugal pumps are typically used in many slurry industries to transport solid materials. Solid particles in the slurry frequently shock the walls inside the pump, significantly abrading the flow path. Wear damage causes replacement of the pump components, which wastes manpower and time. Therefore, previous studies have been conducted on factors to improve efficiency and life time. This study identifies trends in pumps supplying lime to desulfurized devices from thermal power plants. The shear stress transport(SST) model is used to determine the erosion trend of the centrifugal pump that transfers lime slurry. The purpose of this study is to identify efficiency and erosion trends by selecting three of the various impeller design elements. The three impeller blade design variables mentioned above represent the inlet draft angle and blade angle of leading edge(L.E) and trailing edge(T.E). The maximum value of the erosion density rate tends to be similar to the Input power.

About 300,000 tones of oyster shell are annually produced in Korea and, thus, a massive recycling plan is required. Many desulfurizing studies using oyster shells with chemical composition of $CaCO_3$ have been performed so far; however, most of them have focused on dry desulfurization. This study investigates the possibility of using oyster shells for wet desulfurization after calcination. For this, a simulated wet desulfurization facility of spray type was devised and compared the SOx-stripping characteristics of calcined oyster shell with those of limestone. The calcined oyster shell slurry indicate a better desulfurizability than the slurries of raw shell or limestone because the oyster shell transformed to a more reactive phase ($Ca(OH)_2$) by the calcination and hydration. Because of this reason, when the calcined oyster shell slurries were used, the reaction residue showed the higher gypsum ($CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$) contents than any other cases. In the continuous desulfurization experiments, calcined oyster shell slurry showed a wider pH variation than limestone or raw oyster shell slurries, another clear indication of high reactivity of calcined oyster shells for $SO_2$ absorption. Our study also shows that the efficiency of wet desulfurization can be improved by the use of calcined oyster shells.

This study was carried out to investigate the feasibility of Multi Process of Aerobic Digestion (MPAD) for recycling of swine manure slurry as fertilizer. MPAD consisted of three kinds of difference process which are thermophilic aerobic oxidation (TAO) system, lime solidification system, and reverse osmosis (R/O) membrane system. TAO system was studied well previously for decade. The chemical composition of the lime-treated solid fertilizer was as like that organic matter 17.4%, moisture 34.1%, N 0.9%, P 1.7%, K 0.3%, Ca 12.7%, and which was expected to be useful as acid soil amendment material. The concentrated liquid material produced by R/O membrane system was also expected as a good fertilizer for crops production and soil fertility improvement.

The use of sulfur(S) in concrete has been variously studied as a way to improve salt resistance in concrete. However, sulfur is a solid material and is difficult to powder, which has disadvantages in its usability as an admixture or mixture for cement and concrete. For these problem, polymers such as dicyclopentadiene have been used to modify sulfur, but this also exists in a sticky state after modifying and does not improve the fundamental problem. So, reforming sulfur with slaked lime and the effect on cement hydration was examined by reforming sulfur with slaked lime, and the following conclusions were obtained. Depending on the reaction conditions, slaked lime modified bio-sulfur exists in a slurry state containing unreacted sulfur, unreacted slaked lime, calcium-sulfur(Ca-S) compounds and water. When slaked lime modified bio-sulfur is used as a cement mixture, salt resistance of concrete with slaked lime modified bio-sulfur is to be superior to that of plain concrete. This is believed to be because structure of cement hydrates with slaked lime modified bio-sulfur is to be more dense to that of plain cement hydrates by the continued presence of ettringite and can be used as a cement mixture in concrete.
