The results show that most sulfur exists in the form of elementary sulfur in pyrite cinder, and over 95% sulfur is removed in producing pyrite cinder oxidized pellets. The compressive strength of fired pellets drops from 3 186 N to 2 405 N when the ratio of pyrite cinder increases from 40% to 70% under the conditions of preheating at 900℃ for 9 min and firing at 1 230 ℃ for 15 min. The porosity and microstructures of fired pellets prove that the higher ratio of pyrite cinder is given, and the more holes and cracks are achieved, leading to the better reducibility index (RI) and reduction swelling index (RSI), and the lower compressive strength of fired pellets and the worse reduction degradation index (RDI).展开更多

It is found that most of the S2- in sodium aluminate solution can be removed by adding sodium nitrate or hydrogen peroxide in digestion process, and in this way the effect of S2- on alumina product quality is eliminated. However, the removal efficiency of 2?32OS in sodium aluminate solution is very low by this method. Both S2- and 2?32OS in sodium aluminate solution can be removed completely by wet oxidation method in digestion process. The cost of desulfurization by wet oxidation is lower than by adding sodium nitrate or hydrogen peroxide. The results of this research reveal that wet oxidation is an economical and feasible method for the removal of sulfur in alumina production process to improve alumina quality, and provide valuable guidelines for alumina production by high-sulfur bauxite.展开更多

It is found that reaction activities of CuO supported on γ-Al2O3 could be highly improved. Desulfurization kinetics of CuO/γ-Al2O3 was studied in the temperature range of 250 °C-400 °C and SO2 concentration of 0.1%-0.9%. The experimental data were tested and compared with kinetics models of volume reaction model(VRM), grain size model(GSM), random pore model(RPM) and pore-blocking model(PBM). Correlation analysis shows that VRM and RPM models do not fit experimental data well. GSM contradicts with the changes in the physical and chemical properties of Cu O/γ-Al2O3 as the desulfurization proceeds. It is found that PBM is consistent with the change of pore structure of CuO/γ-Al2O3 sorbent during desulfurization process and predicts the conversion-time curves of the sorbent well. Meanwhile, kinetics parameters are obtained and discussed.展开更多

In order to reduce the amount of sulfur-containing compounds in fuels,responsible for high SO_x emission levels,a green chemistry approach is compulsory. In this paper,vanadium salen and salophen complexes were used in the oxidation of a model aromatic sulfide,such as dibenzothiophene( DBT),in the presence of H_2O_2 as green oxidant. The oxidative process was successfully coupled with the extraction of the oxidized compounds by ionic liquids. The system resulted highly selective for sulfide oxidation,showing poor reactivity toward the oxidation of alkenes and allowing a significant reduction of S content in a model benzine. To note,the use of microwave in place of standard heating allowed to obtain 98% of DBT oxidation and almost complete sulfur extraction in the model fuel in 1000 s. For these reasons,this system was considered an easy,rapid and clean process to achieve fuel desulfurization.展开更多

Therefore, improved approaches to remove sulfur are still essential. In the present work, a simple catalytic oxidative desulfurization (CODS) system for Iraqi gasoil fraction has been successfully developed using CuO-ZnO nanocomposites as catalysts, and H 2O 2 as oxidant under microwave irradiation. The main reaction parameters influencing sulfur conversion including microwave power, irradiation time, catalyst dosage and H 2O 2 to gasoil volume ratio have been investigated. The CuO-ZnO nanocomposites was synthesized with different weight ratios and characterized by XRD, FE-SEM, AFM and BET surface area methods. The results reveal that, high sulfur conversion (93%) has been achieved under suitable conditions of microwave CODS as follows: microwave power of 540 W, irradiation time of 15 min, catalyst dosage of 8 g/L (0.4 g), and H 2O 2 ∶gasoil volume ratio of 0.3. The catalyst reusability shows that the synthesized catalyst can be reused five times without an important loss in its activity.展开更多

The experimental results demonstrate that sulfolobas being kind of linking-heat, acidophilic and self-supported bacterium with double characters can effectively remove inorganic and organic sulfur in coal. The superlatively desulfurization rate is up to 48.57% total sulfur and 41.71% inorganic sulfur within 10 d and its desulfurization rate can be greatly affected by the four factors above mentioned. Therefore, the optimum conditions of desulfurization are obtained by comprehensive experiment and they are as following: pH value 3, temperature 70℃, coal slurry concentration 10% and coal granularity 150 μm, respectively. Moreover, the repetition experimental results confirm that the desulfurization by sulfolobas is steady.展开更多

The effects of lead smelter slag(LSS) to iron sinking slag(ISS) mass ratio and temperature were investigated in desulfurization experiments. The X-ray diffraction(XRD) and X-ray fluorescence(XRF) analyses show that the optimum conditions are LSS:ISS of 3:7 and temperature of 1350°C. The composition of desulfurization products is mainly Zn Fe2O4, and the desulfurization rate of 99.66% is obtained under optimum conditions. The thermogravimetric(TG) and differential scanning calorimeter(DSC) analyses demonstrate that reductant is necessary for decomposition and reduction of zinc ferrite in desulfurization product. The effects of reductant, temperature and feeding modes on iron enrichment were investigated in reduction experiments. The scanning electron microscope(SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometer(EDS) determination show that the iron content of reduction product is up to 99.36% under optimum conditions of coke as reductant, reduction temperature of 1450°C and the feeding mode of premixing.展开更多

The effects of lead smelter slag(LSS) to iron sinking slag(ISS) mass ratio and temperature were investigated in desulfurization experiments. The X-ray diffraction(XRD) and X-ray fluorescence(XRF) analyses show that the optimum conditions are LSS:ISS of 3:7 and temperature of 1350°C. The composition of desulfurization products is mainly Zn Fe2O4, and the desulfurization rate of 99.66% is obtained under optimum conditions. The thermogravimetric(TG) and differential scanning calorimeter(DSC) analyses demonstrate that reductant is necessary for decomposition and reduction of zinc ferrite in desulfurization product. The effects of reductant, temperature and feeding modes on iron enrichment were investigated in reduction experiments. The scanning electron microscope(SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometer(EDS) determination show that the iron content of reduction product is up to 99.36% under optimum conditions of coke as reductant, reduction temperature of 1450°C and the feeding mode of premixing.
文摘In this research,1-butyl-pyridinium tetrafluoroborate([C4Py][BF4]-)was prepared by ion exchange method and was characterized by1H-NM R,13C-NM R,and FT-IR techniques.The synthesized ionic liquid w as used for removal of dibenzothiophene as a typical organosulfur pollutant from organic medium.The effect of different parameters on the extraction efficiency w as studied and optimized.At the optimized conditions,97.68%of dibenzothiophene w as extracted from 1 000 mg/L n-hexane solution.The extraction efficiency obtained in this w ork w as higher than the previous reported values.The desulfurization reaction w as kinetically follow ed the second order mechanism.The ionic liquid w as reusable and after four regeneration cycles 97%of its original extraction efficiency w as retained.

文摘The influence of coal desulfurization by fungus was experimentally studied.The results suggest that fungus can effectively remove inorganic and organic sulfur in coal,and main influences of desulfurization by fungus of pH value,temperature,coal slurry concentration and coal granularity were studied by orthodox experiment and the optimal experimental conditions are′as follows:pH value 6,temperature 45℃,coal slurry concentration 10%and coal granularity 100μm.Under above conditions,fungus car remove up to 44.96%total sulfur and 54.87%inorganic sulfur within two days,and their desulfurization rates will increase along with time.Compared with sulfolobas,desulphurization by fungus is steady and more effective,and has advantage of high speed.
