Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of flue gas treatment technology, specifically to a flue gas denitrification agent and its denitrification process. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, commonly used flue gas denitrification technologies mainly include selective catalytic reduction (SCR), non-selective catalytic reduction (NSCR), and the combined SNCR + SCR process. SCR technology requires the use of a catalyst within a specific temperature range to reduce NOx by reacting it with the reducing agent. However, this method suffers from problems such as high catalyst cost and susceptibility to poisoning and deactivation. SNCR technology does not use a catalyst and directly injects the reducing agent into the high-temperature zone to react with NOx. However, its reaction temperature window is narrow, and the denitrification efficiency is greatly affected by temperature fluctuations. Furthermore, ammonia slip is a prominent issue. The combined SNCR + SCR process combines the advantages of the former two methods, but the system is complex and has high investment and operating costs.

[0003] In addition, some existing denitrification agents have many shortcomings in use. For example, some denitrification agents are mainly composed of ammonia and urea. When the dosage is low, the denitrification efficiency is low and NOx emission cannot be achieved. When the dosage is high, there is ammonia escape, causing secondary pollution. Some denitrification agents have complicated preparation processes and are prone to clogging pipelines and nozzles, affecting the stable operation of the denitrification system. Therefore, developing a high-efficiency, economical, environmentally friendly and widely adaptable flue gas denitrification agent and its denitrification process is of great practical significance. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a flue gas denitrification agent and its denitrification process, solving the problems mentioned in the background section.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solution: a flue gas denitrification agent, comprising the following components by weight percentage: 30%-50% organic amine, 45%-60% polyol, 1%-5% bio-oil, 0.2%-0.5% emulsifier, 0.1%-0.2% nanoparticle catalyst, and 0.05%-0.1% bactericide.

[0006] Preferably, the organic amine includes one or more of ethylenediamine, hexamethylenediamine, triethanolamine, acetamide, and acrylamide.

[0007] Preferably, the polyol includes one or more of glycerol, ethylene glycol, butylene glycol, triethylene glycol, xylitol, and sorbitol.

[0008] Preferably, the emulsifier comprises one or more of sodium stearate, sodium dodecyl sulfonate, dodecyl dimethylamine, nonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether, octylphenol polyoxyethylene ether, and oleic acid polyoxyethylene ester.

[0009] Preferably, the nanoparticle catalyst includes one or more of nano-activated carbon, nano-titanium dioxide, nano-vanadium pentoxide, and nano-magnesium hydroxide.

[0010] Preferably, the bactericide includes one or more of isothiazolinone, dodecyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride, dodecyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium bromide, sodium trichloroisocyanurate, and glutaraldehyde.

[0011] Preferably, the preparation method of the flue gas denitrification agent includes the following steps: S1. Organic amine, polyol, and nanoparticle catalyst are added to the reactor in sequence and mixed evenly under stirring to obtain microemulsion A. The stirring speed can be adjusted according to the size of the reactor and the properties of the materials, generally 100-500 rpm, and the stirring time is 30-60 minutes to ensure that the components are fully mixed. S2. In another container, add the bio-oil and emulsifier to an appropriate amount of solvent and stir until homogeneous to obtain solution B; S3. Slowly add solution B to microemulsion A while continuing to stir at a speed of 200-600 rpm for 60-120 minutes to ensure that the components are fully mixed and form a uniform microemulsion. S4. Add bactericide to the obtained microemulsion, stir and mix evenly at a stirring speed of 100-300 rpm for 15-30 minutes to obtain a high-efficiency flue gas denitrification agent.

[0012] Preferably, in step S2, deionized water is used as the solvent, and the appropriate solvent and amount are selected according to the actual situation.

[0013] This invention also discloses a denitrification process for a flue gas denitrification agent, specifically including the following steps: A1. Preparation of denitrification agent solution: Prepare the flue gas denitrification agent prepared above into a solution containing 20-40 wt% denitrification agent, and control the temperature of the solution at 25-40℃; A2. Atomized Injection: The denitrification agent solution is atomized by an atomizing device to form fine droplets. The atomized denitrification agent solution is then quantitatively injected countercurrently into the high-temperature zone of the boiler at 750-1100℃, and then dispersed into the boiler flue gas. The countercurrent injection method can make the denitrification agent fully contact the nitrogen oxides in the flue gas, thereby improving the reaction efficiency. A3. Reactive denitrification: The denitrification agent solution undergoes a reduction reaction with nitrogen oxides in boiler flue gas under high temperature conditions, converting nitrogen oxides into nitrogen and water, thereby reducing the content of nitrogen oxides in the flue gas. During the reaction, nanoparticle catalysts provide active sites to promote the reaction, and bio-oil increases the local pyrolysis temperature, which is conducive to the rapid completion of the reaction. A4. Flue gas emissions: After denitrification treatment, the flue gas, after subsequent dust removal, demisting and other treatment processes, meets environmental emission standards and can be safely discharged into the atmosphere. Beneficial effects

Compared with existing technologies, this flue gas denitrification agent and its denitrification process have the following advantages: By using a composite of multiple components such as organic amines, polyols, bio-oils, emulsifiers, nanoparticle catalysts, and bactericides, the components work synergistically, fully leveraging their respective advantages. Organic amines act as reducing agents to provide a nitrogen source, polyols play a dispersing and stabilizing role, bio-oils increase the local pyrolysis temperature and promote the denitrification reaction, emulsifiers enable the components to form a uniform microemulsion structure, nanoparticle catalysts provide more active sites and increase the reaction rate, and bactericides ensure the storage stability of the denitrification agent. With nano-catalyst particles as the core, a multi-layered microemulsion structure is formed, ensuring uniform droplet and component distribution during injection. This allows the denitrification agent to fully contact the nitrogen oxides in the flue gas, improving the efficiency and uniformity of the denitrification reaction. The denitrification process uses a quantitative counter-current injection method after atomization, spraying the denitrification agent solution into the high-temperature zone of the boiler and then dispersing it into the boiler flue gas. This allows the denitrification agent to react with the nitrogen oxides in the flue gas under optimal reaction conditions, further improving the denitrification efficiency.
