Abstract:
Study on NO(2) absorption aimed at seeking a better NO(2) absorption chemical at pH 4.5 approximately 7.0 for application to existing wet flue gas desulfurization (FGD). The results from the double-stirred reactor indicated that ascorbic acid has very high absorption rate at this pH range. The rate constant of ascorbic acid reaction with NO(2) (0 approximately 1,000 x 10(-6) mol/mol) is about 3.54 x 10(6) mol/(Ls) at pH 5.4 approximately 6.5 at 55 degrees C.
