The procees uses the so-called powder-partlcle fluidized bed (PPFB) as the major reactor in which a coarse DeNOx catalyst, several hundrsd micrometers in size, is fluidized by flue gas as the fluidization medium particles while a contlnuogsly supplied fine DeSOx sorbent, several to tens of micrometers in dianteter, is entrained with the flue gas. Ammonin for NOx reduction is fed to the bottom of the bed, thus, SOx and NOx are simultaneously removed in the single reactor.By adopting a model gas, SO2-NO-HaO-N2-air, to simulate actual flue gas in a laboratory-scale PPFB, simultaneous SO2 and NO removals were explored with respect to various gas components of flue gas. It was found that the vaxlations of SO2 removal with concentrations (fractions) of oxygen, water vapor, SO2 and NO in flue gas are little affected by the simultaneous NOx reduction. However,the dependencles of NO removal upon such gas components are clveely related to the inter-actions between DeSOx sorbent and DeNOx catalyst.展开更多

The results show that the differential pressure in the fluidized bed, which has small fluctuation with time, increases with the increase of gas flowing velocity. The utilization ratio of gas decreases when the reaction lasts longer time indicating that the reaction is faster at the beginning of reduction and becomes slower in the latter process. The higher the reaction temperature is, the higher the utilization ratio of gas is, but the difference of utilization ratio among the different temperatures becomes smaller with time. The utilization ratio of gas and the metallization ratio can reach 9% and 84% respectively at 750℃ for 20 min, which shows the reduction reaction by H2 is very fast. The increase of metallization ratio with gas velocity performs quite good linearity, which shows that a higher velocity of reducing gas can be used to improve the productivity of the reactor when H2 is used as reducing gas. With the increase of charge height, the metallization ratio decreases, but the utilization ratio of gas increases. The reaction temperature can be reduced to 700-750℃ from 800-850℃ when H2 is used as reducing gas.展开更多

Influence of processing parameters, such as particle size, gas flow velocity, height of charge, temperature, compositions of gas mixture, and percentage of inert components, on reduction ki- netics was experimentally determined under the condition of fluidization. The equations for calculating instantaneous and average oxidation rates were deduced. It was found that an increasing H2 O percentage in the gas mixture could obviously decrease the reduction rate because the equilibrium partial pressure of H2 decreased with increasing content of Hz O in the gas mixture and then the driving force of reduction reaction was reduced. When the H2 content was high, .the apparent reaction rate was so rapid when the average size of iron ore fines was less than 1 mm that the re- action temperature can be as low as 750 ℃ ; when the average size of iron ore fines was more than 1 mm, a high re- action temperature of 800 ℃ was required. In addition, it was also found that the content of H2O should be less than 10% for efficient reduction.展开更多

The raw ultraflne NiO particles are first pre-reduced using hydrogen at lower temperatures （340-400 ℃）, followed by further reduction at higher temperatures （500-600℃）. The self-agglomeration of Ni particles formed during low-temperature reduction decreases the sintering activity of the newly formed ultrafine Ni particles, leading to good fluidization quality, even for the subsequent high-temperature reduction process. The agglomerated Ni particles have a high Ni content （above 99wt%）, a low density （0.78g/cm^3） and a uniform particle size （approximately 100 μm）. A concept design for a novel two-stage fluidized bed reactor process used to produce high-purity Ni powder was also proposed. This approach may be extended to the synthesis of other ultrafine/nanosized metals or metal oxides through a fluidization method.展开更多
