AbstractThe 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.

The aim of the study was to establish the influence of a co-precipitation agent (i.e., NaOH–immediate precipitation; hexamethylenetetramine/urea–gradual precipitation and growth of nanostructures) on the properties and catalytic activity of as-synthesized Au-CeO2 nanocomposites. All catalysts were fully characterized with the use of XRD, nitrogen physisorption, ICP-OES, SEM, HR-TEM, UV-vis, XPS, and tested in low-temperature oxidation of benzyl alcohol as a model oxidation reaction. The results obtained in this study indicated that the type of co-precipitation agent has a significant impact on the growth of gold species. Immediate co-precipitation of Au-CeO2 nanostructures with the use of NaOH allowed obtainment of considerably smaller and more homogeneous in size gold nanoparticles than those formed by gradual co-precipitation and growth of Au-CeO2 nanostructures in the presence of hexamethylenetetramine or urea. In the catalytic tests, it was established that the key factor promoting high activity in low-temperature oxidation of benzyl alcohol was size of gold nanoparticles. The highest conversion of the alcohol was observed for the catalyst containing the smallest Au particle size (i.e., Au-CeO2 nanocomposite prepared with the use of NaOH as a co-precipitation agent).
