Deep desulfurization of sintering flue gas in iron and steel works based on low-temperature oxidation

Abstract

The deep desulfurization method of sintering flue gas based on the low-temperature oxidation method is studied. Based on the analysis of the main principle of deep desulfurization of sintering flue gas, a deep desulfurization system of sintering flue gas is constructed, which is composed of an absorption washing unit and a washing solution treatment unit. Sodium hydroxide solution is used as the desulfurizing absorbent to mix with the sintering flue gas entering the reaction tower. Sulfur dioxide in the sintering flue gas reacts with sodium hydroxide to generate sodium sulfite, and sodium sulfite is oxidized to produce sodium sulfate; ozone is produced by ozone generator, nitrogen oxide compounds are oxidized by ozone to generate oxyacid, which is easy to be removed by sodium hydroxide washing solution, and the detergent is the same as that used to remove sulfur dioxide and dust. The experimental results show that the highest desulfurization rate and denitrification rate of the proposed method are 90% and over 22%, and the reaction efficiency and economy are significantly better than that of the comparative method, which shows that the method is reasonable and effective.
