However, this method suffers from problems such as complex equipment, high investment costs, difficult operation and maintenance, and the generation of a large amount of byproducts that need to be treated. Therefore, developing a highly efficient, economical, environmentally friendly, and adaptable FGD system is of significant practical importance. Utility Model Content

[0019] Example 1

[0020] This utility model provides a flue gas desulfurization system, such as Figure 1As shown, it includes a sulfur dioxide absorption system, an alkali storage system, an oxidation system, and a process water system 9. The sulfur dioxide absorption system includes an absorption tower 1 and a slurry recirculation system 2. The slurry recirculation system 2 includes four circulating pumps 17. The absorption tower 1 is cylindrical, and from bottom to top, it is equipped with a circulating slurry pool 3, two rectifying layers 4 (the rectifying layers are of a pipe grid structure), four spray layers 5, a demister (used to remove mist droplets entrained in the flue gas), and an auxiliary flushing device 8 (used to flush...). The demisting device consists of a primary tubular demister 6 and a two-stage ridge demister 7. The auxiliary flushing device 8 is connected to the process water system 9 via a pipeline. The pipeline is equipped with pumps and valves. The process water is demineralized water. The alkali storage system includes an alkali tank 10 and a bubbling device 11 located at the bottom of the alkali tank. The bubbling device 11 is connected to the air inlet 12120 via a pipeline. The side wall of the alkali tank is connected to the bottom of the circulating slurry pool 3 via a pipeline. The pipeline is equipped with regulating valves. The oxidation system (for reducing the COD of discharged wastewater) includes an oxidation tank 12 and an air duct network 13 located at the bottom of the oxidation tank. The air duct network 13 is connected to the outlet of a blower 14 via a pipe. A humidification and cooling device 15 is installed at the inlet of the blower to ensure that the air is saturated before entering the blower, effectively preventing scaling at the outlet of the air duct network. The outlet of the oxidation tank 12 is connected to a slurry discharge pump 16 via a pipe. The top of the circulating slurry tank 3 is connected to the top of the oxidation tank 12 via a pipe. A regulating valve is installed on the pipe. The opening and closing of the regulating valve between the circulating slurry tank 3 and the oxidation tank 12 is controlled by monitoring the slurry density value and absorption effect of the circulating slurry tank 3. The bottom of the circulating slurry tank 3 is connected to the inlet of four circulating pumps 17 of the slurry recirculation system via pipes. The outlets of the four circulating pumps are connected to four spray layers 5 via pipes. The spray layer 5 consists of a distribution pipe and spiral nozzles installed on the distribution pipe. The spiral nozzles face the bottom of the absorption tower. The spray layer 5 ensures spray coverage by evenly distributing the sprayed slurry. The flue gas inlet 19 is located on the side wall of the absorption tower 1, between the rectifier layer 4 and the circulating slurry tank 3. The top outlet of the absorption tower 1 is connected to the chimney 18 via a pipe. The system is connected to the slurry tank 3 inside the absorption tower 1, which is used to purify the emission of flue gas. A pH measuring device is installed in the circulating slurry tank 3 to detect the pH value of the slurry in the circulating slurry tank 3. When the pH value is lower than 5.0, it will aggravate the corrosion of equipment, especially the pump impeller, and reduce its service life. When the pH value is lower than 8.0, the main product is NaHSO3. When the pH value is higher than 8.0, the main product is Na2SO3. The pH value of the slurry should be controlled between 6 and 9. The pH value in the slurry tank of the absorption tower is controlled by adjusting the injection amount of alkali solution.

[0021] The specific process of removing the main acidic gases SO2 and SO3 from flue gas in the flue gas desulfurization system of this utility model is as follows: The alkali tank 10 is filled with NaOH solution, the concentration of which is controlled at 10 wt% to 18 wt%. The alkali solution is pumped into the circulating slurry tank 3 by a pump. The flow rate of the alkali solution is adjusted by a regulating valve. The flue gas enters the absorption tower 1 through the flue gas inlet 19. The circulating pump 17 sends the alkali solution in the circulating slurry tank 3 to the nozzles of the spray layer 5 inside the absorption tower 1. The slurry is sprayed out through the nozzles, and the flue gas and NaOH slurry come into countercurrent contact. The main acidic gases SO2 and SO3 in the flue gas react with the nitrogen in the slurry. The sodium sulfite and sodium bisulfite react with NaOH to form sodium sulfite and sodium bisulfite. Trace amounts of acidic gases HCl and HF in the flue gas react with NaOH to form water-soluble NaCl and NaF, respectively. The resulting wastewater is discharged into oxidation tank 12. Air blown in by fan 14 is injected into the bottom of oxidation tank 12 through air duct 13, oxidizing the sodium sulfite and sodium bisulfite into sodium sulfate. Finally, the sodium sulfate is transported to the wastewater treatment workshop by slurry discharge pump 16. The desulfurized flue gas, carrying droplets, flows towards the top of absorption tower 1 and is collected by the demister in absorption tower 1, ensuring that the droplet content of the clean flue gas does not exceed 75 mg / m³. 3 (Wet basis, standard state, 3% O2), the clean flue gas enters the chimney 18 through the top flue and is discharged into the atmosphere; when the pressure drop of the demister layer approaches or reaches 150Pa, the demineralized water of the process water system 9 is used to flush the demister. The flushing water pressure of the demister is 200kPa, which removes the main acidic gases SO2 and SO3 in the flue gas.

[0022] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the inventive concept of the present utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
