The working principle of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) used for flue gas desulfurization

Sodium bicarbonate (baking soda, NaHCO3) can be used as an adsorbent for flue gas desulfurization. It removes acidic pollutants in the flue gas through chemical adsorption. At the same time, it can also remove some inorganic and organic trace substances through physical adsorption. Spray the fine sodium bicarbonate powder directly into the high-temperature flue gas, and the sodium bicarbonate decomposes at high temperature to produce sodium carbonate Na2CO3, H2O and CO2.

NaHCO3 + HCl → NaCl + H2O + CO2
2NaHCO3 + SO2 + ½ O2 → Na2SO4 + H2O + 2CO2
NaHCO3 + HF → NaF + H2O + CO2

Generally, the flue gas temperature is between 140 and 250 °C. Due to the high activity of sodium bicarbonate adsorbents, a slight excess of sodium bicarbonate (stoichiometric factor between 1.1 and 1.3) is usually sufficient.

Due to transportation and storage, sodium bicarbonate raw materials are usually coarse particles (D50 value is about 200 microns). To achieve higher reactivity, the adsorbent must have a larger specific surface area. Therefore, the sodium bicarbonate must be ground to a certain fineness before being injected into the flue gas pipe. For example, to remove SO2, the fineness of sodium bicarbonate must reach D90 <20μm; and to remove HCl, only D90 <35μm is required. If the system is operated correctly, it can remove more than 95% of SO2; the removal rate of HCl can even reach 99%.

We can provide processes and equipment that meet the following performance indicators

The raw material of sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) is uniformly sent to the grinder through the quantitative feeder in the lower part of the silo for ultra-fine grinding, and the product with particle size (D90: 20μm or the product size can be flexibly adjusted according to the need of deacidification) is transported by the high-pressure fan. Go to the flue gas pipe and spray it into the flue gas, and quickly produce a chemical reaction with the acid-containing flue gas. At high temperature, sodium bicarbonate decomposes into sodium carbonate Na2CO3, H2O and CO2. The newly formed sodium carbonate Na2CO3 has high reaction activity at the moment of formation, and can efficiently react with the acidic substances in the flue gas.
