The aim is to modify the activated carbon from sewage sludge with γ-Al2O3 by sol-gel, investigate its performances on the SO2 adsorption and the desulfurization mechanisms in the presence of gaseous oxygen. The modification of the activated carbon from sewage sludge was carried out by adding γ-Al2O3 to improve the SO2 adsorption in a simulated flue gas. The results indicated that γ-Al2O3 porous membranes addition was very effective in promoting the BET area and pore volumes of the activated carbon from sewage sludge. γ-Al2O3 porous membranes in the presence of gaseous oxygen had much effect on the adsorption performance and benefited the SO2 adsorption capacity. The physically adsorbed adsorption took place first. And the following reactions should be occurring on the active sites (*) because of the specific pore construction, BET area and surface functional groups on γ-Al2O3/activated carbon from sewage sludge: (1)SO2 + *→SO2* , (2) O2 + *→O2* , (3)SO2* + O2* → SO3* , (4) 3SO3* + Al2O3 → Al2(SO4)3.

The simultaneous removal of SO2 and NO was investigated with the activated carbon from sewage sludge (referred as ACS) modified by chitosan (referred as CS).The effects of CS loading and operating conditions on the simultaneous removal of SO2 and NO were analyzed. The results indicate that compared with the ACS, impregnating CS results in significant increase in SO2 or NO removal. Relative humidity enhances SO2 adsorption capacities, but not for NO. The SO2 adsorption capacities of the CS / ACS show no obvious decrease at small amount of NO in the feed. However, higher amounts of NO reduce the SO2 adsorption capacities. The opposite phenomenon appears for NO when a small amount of SO2. So a competitive sorption consists between NO and SO2. Simultaneous adsorptions for NO and SO2 is due to more active sites from CS.

This paper mainly studied the removal of Hg by biomass activated carbon in the simulated flue gas. Biomass activated carbon of different materials were made through the control of activator concentration, activation temperature in the self-developed biomass preparation system. In the fixed bed system, the flue gas Hg removal efficiency of activated carbon samples were evaluated. The experimental results showed that the adsorption performance of biomass activated carbon was not proportional with the change of the activator concentration and activation temperature, the overall trend was firstly increased and then decreased.

Recycling of sewage sludge will soon no longer be possible in The Netherlands, or will be possible only to a very limited degree. For that reason, part of the sewage sludge will have to be incinerated. This will happen particularly in those areas where tipping space is very limited. A sludge incineration plant is planned to be built in the town of Dordrecht, with a capacity of 45,000 tonnes dry solids per year. The plant will be subject to the very strict flue gas emission requirements of the Dutch Guideline on Incineration. The Guideline demands a sophisticated flue gas purification procedure.
