AbstractCuO/Al2O3 sorbents based on three aluminas of different pore structure and surface area around 125 m2/g were prepared. Two of the aluminas exhibited bimodal pore size distribution, while the third had narrow unimodal distribution. The effect of copper loading on the physical characteristics of the aluminas (pore size distribution and surface area) was examined using mercury porosimetry and gas adsorption. The reactivity of the sorbents towards SO2 was investigated by carrying out thermogravimetric experiments using simulated flue gas.
