Catalytic activity of porous manganese oxides for benzene oxidation improved via citric acid solution combustion synthesis

Various manganese oxides(MnO_x) prepared via citric acid solution combustion synthesis were applied for catalytic oxidation of benzene. The results showed the ratios of citric acid/manganese nitrate in synthesizing process positively affected the physicochemical properties of MnO_x, e.g., BET(Brunauer-Emmett-Teller) surface area, porous structure, reducibility and so on, which were in close relationship with their catalytic performance. Of all the catalysts, the sample prepar...     

From feathers to syngas - technologies and devices

The poultry waste produced by industrial slaughterhouses typically contains not only feathers, but also a mixture of animal entrails, nails, blood, beaks and whole carcasses. Economical utilisation of this mixture, varying strongly in composition and moisture content, is, in general, difficult. We demonstrate that this awkward material can be successfully used for gasification in a simple, fixed-bed gasifier. The method of gasification, which we developed, enables control of the gasification process and ensures its stability in the operational regime of a working poultry processing plant. The installation, which has been working in Poland for 2 years, utilises 2 tons of feathers per hour and produces syngas of stable composition and fairly high quality. The syngas is burnt in the combustion chamber adjacent to the gasifier. Heat is recuperated in a boiler producing 3.5 tons per hour of technological steam continuously used for the operation of the slaughterhouse. The whole process complies with the stringent emission standards. In the paper we present the end-use device for feather utilisation and describe the underlying gasification and syngas combustion processes. Key elements of the whole installation are briefly discussed. The environmental impacts of the installation are summarized.     

Influence of bromine on metal volatilization in waste combustion

Co-combustion tests of municipal solid waste and bromine-containing waste plastics have been performed in the TAMARA test incinerator in order to investigate the fate of bromine in waste combustion. HBr is the main bromine combustion product. Approximately 50% of the bromine inventory stays in the grate ashes, which is much more than is found for chlorine. The percentage of bromine transferred into the fly ash also exceeds that of chlorine. There is a strong indication that bromine has a promoting effect upon the volatility of most of the heavy metals that are typically mobilized by chlorine.

100 MW锅炉NaOH颗粒生成的数值模拟

煤粉燃烧过程中矿物质的气化、成核、凝结等过程是炉膛中亚微米颗粒形成的主要途径。本文运用CFD软件针对某100 MW锅炉内NaOH颗粒形成进行了数值研究,计算得到了炉内的温度分布、氧浓度分布和亚微米颗粒数量浓度和质量浓度分布。结果显示,亚微米颗粒的生成数量与温度具有强烈的相关性,温度较高的区域亚微米颗粒数量浓度较大,温度较低的区域则较小;而在炉膛的高温区内,NaOH颗粒的质量浓度并不是最高,而是最低,同时随着炉膛高度的增加,NaOH颗粒的质量浓度逐渐增加。计算结果为今后数值研究燃煤过程中亚微米颗粒的形成与演化奠定基础,为研究温度等燃烧条件对亚微米颗粒形成的影响、抑制其排放等方面提供了一种有效研究手段。

基于失碳速率的煤氧化动力学模型研究

碳元素脱离煤体转移到气态产物中是煤低温氧化过程的一个重要特征.通过对煤自燃气体产物生成特征的研究,提出失碳速率的概念,建立了相应的氧化动力学模型,并从理论及实验两方面予以验证.该模型可较准确地描述煤在程序升温条件下从常温氧化至110℃的过程中失碳速率的变化特征.研究表明,自燃倾向性不同的煤其失碳速率有较大的差异,同一种煤在不同温度段内失碳速率也不同,其活化能和总指前因子均有较大改变;不同温度阶段煤氧化的内在作用机制存在较大差别,仅以某一温度段的特性来衡量煤氧化能力的强弱并不全面.     

模拟车用工况下5 kW燃料电池尾气净化系统

模拟了车用工况下燃料电池发动机脉冲式排氢的特点,设计开发了一套质子交换膜燃料电池的尾气净化系统,并以5 kW燃料电池的尾气排放为例,研究其净化效果。研究了电池阳极排放氢气缓冲前后尾气中氢气浓度的变化,以及不同空速条件下氢气的去除效果。结果表明：电堆阳极排放氢气经过缓冲处理后,尾气中氢气浓度趋于平稳,大部分工况下处在2%以下,达到了安全处理的要求;尾气中氢气的去除效果与空速密切相关。对自制的整体式催化剂而言,当空速低于20 000 h^-1时,氢气的去除率能达到约95%,而当空速达到39 270 h^-1时,氢气的去除率仅为10.9%。鉴于这一问题,提出通过采用尾排空气的分流手段调整催化燃烧反应器对空速的要求,以提高尾气中氢气的去除率。

沸腾炉大气污染物的生成与排放特征分析

以20台沸腾炉(功率小于等于60 MW)的燃料特性分析数据和大气污染物的排放实测数据为基础,利用统计分析方法,研究了燃烧过程中排放的颗粒物(PM)、SO_2和NO_x初始排放浓度的影响因素,分析了沸腾炉PM、SO_2和NO_x排放现状,探讨了我国中小型沸腾炉PM、SO_2和NO_x排放管理控制的潜力和可行性.实验结果表明:在锅炉运行负荷大于等于80%的条件下,中小型沸腾炉PM的初始排放浓度基本上不受锅炉出力、过量空气系数和燃煤灰分含量的影响;燃煤的硫含量越高,SO_2初始排放浓度越高;过量空气系数越大,燃煤挥发分越低,NO_x初始排放浓度越高.
