Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of industrial flue gas treatment, specifically to a catalyst and flue gas treatment process for eliminating carbon monoxide in flue gas. Background Technology
[0002] Flue gas is the process of recycling and purifying it to meet emission standards. The large amounts of flue gas emitted during non-ferrous metal smelting often contain gaseous pollutants such as sulfur dioxide, fluorides, chlorine, and mercury, which pollute the atmosphere and disrupt the ecological balance. These gaseous pollutants must be immobilized and converted into beneficial products. While single-pollutant control processes such as selective catalytic oxidation (SCR), wet flue gas desulfurization (WFGD), and activated carbon injection (ACI) have high removal efficiency for sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and mercury, their drawbacks include large land area requirements, complex processes, and high operating costs. Larger coal-fired power plants currently mainly use limestone-gypsum desulfurization and selective catalytic oxidation technologies, which can achieve certain denitrification and mercury removal effects. However, for small coal-fired power plants, the above two methods have significant drawbacks such as high water consumption and high operating costs. For example, patent CN201210368742.0 discloses "a flue gas circulating fluidized bed combined desulfurization and mercury removal device and method", which removes sulfur dioxide and mercury by adding quicklime and activated carbon to the circulating fluidized bed reactor. Although this method achieves the combined removal of multiple pollutants, the inability to remove nitrogen oxides is a significant shortcoming. In addition, activated carbon is expensive, resulting in high operating costs. At the same time, the removal of carbon monoxide in flue gas is also a major challenge. Therefore, we propose a catalyst and flue gas treatment process for removing carbon monoxide from flue gas. Summary of the Invention

[0026] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0027] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a flue gas treatment process with the following beneficial effects:

[0029] SNCR denitrification does not cause pressure damage in the entire denitrification process, so there is no need to increase the induced draft fan head. For retrofitted units, there is no need to modify the induced draft fan. This reduces both investment and construction period for retrofitting.
[0030] The entire denitrification and reduction process in SNCR denitrification takes place inside the boiler, eliminating the need for a separate denitrification reactor. The reducing agent is injected into the flue gas through nozzles installed on the boiler wall.

Some of the gaseous sulfur dioxide molecules in the flue gas react directly with quicklime for desulfurization, while others react with the alkaline film formed on the surface of the filter bag of the bag filter by quicklime for desulfurization. This process solidifies the gaseous sulfur dioxide molecules in the flue gas.

At 110-160°C, the dust-removed flue gas is introduced into the fixed-bed reactor so that the dust-removed flue gas comes into contact with the ammonia removal agent. After the reaction, acid removal treatment is performed. The ammonia removal agent is a solid powder ammonia removal agent, a solid granular ammonia removal agent, or a solid honeycomb ammonia removal agent to prevent ammonia escape and ensure complete ammonia removal.

The solidified products, quicklime, and dust produced by flue gas desulfurization are filtered out by the bag filter and discharged from the ash outlet of the bag filter.
[0099] In S6, the flue gas is introduced into the primary and secondary alkaline spray towers by an induced draft fan for acid removal treatment. Specifically, this includes connecting the primary and secondary alkaline spray towers to the alkaline solution tank with a spray pump, and using the spray pump to spray the alkaline solution into the alkaline spray towers to react with the flue gas for acid removal.
[0100] In S6, ammonia removal treatment is performed before the dust removal flue gas is introduced into the primary and secondary alkaline spray towers. Specifically, this includes: providing a fixed-bed reactor, placing the ammonia removal agent inside the fixed-bed reactor, and introducing the dust removal flue gas into the fixed-bed reactor at 110-160°C to allow the dust removal flue gas to contact the ammonia removal agent. After the reaction, acid removal treatment is performed. The ammonia removal agent is a solid powdered ammonia removal agent, a solid granular ammonia removal agent, or a solid honeycomb ammonia removal agent to prevent ammonia escape and ensure the removal of ammonia components.
[0101] This flue gas treatment process can stably achieve emission standards, maintaining the advanced nature of enterprise environmental protection in the foreseeable future. Through the environmental and safety improvement and quality transformation of this invention, environmental management becomes more standardized and energy-efficient, significantly improving environmental and social benefits and greatly reducing energy consumption. This invention achieves the goals of safety transformation, environmental protection, energy conservation and emission reduction, which is of great significance to improving the local ecological environment.
[0102] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
