Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of environmental protection, and particularly relates to hydrochloric acid modified fly ash assisted by wet desulfurization wastewater and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] The causes of mercury pollution mainly include natural release and human pollution, and the human source is a very important factor. The human source of mercury is mainly related to the following aspects: mercury mines and metal smelting, industrial production and use in the electrical industry, and natural fossil fuel combustion. During the coal combustion process, most of the mercury will separate into the atmosphere with the flue gas, and elemental mercury is the main form of mercury in the environment, which has high volatility and low water solubility. Due to easy evaporation at room temperature and long-distance transportation in the atmosphere, it is easy to cause global pollution. In view of the mercury pollution problem generated in the coal combustion process of coal-fired power plants, currently several control methods are mainly proposed, including adsorbent injection method, fixed bed filtration method, and wet flue gas desulfurization combined with mercury removal. However, due to the high cost of the adsorbent, it is urgent to develop a new type of high-efficiency and low-cost adsorbent, the oxidation efficiency of mercury is not high, and there is a possibility of secondary pollution, so it is particularly important to develop a new type of efficient and green desulfurization technology.
