Notes:
An experimental study has been performed of the reactions occurring when the reactive particles of calcium oxide are exposed to sulfur dioxide bearing flue gas. Using a differential, fixed-bed reactor, kinetic measurements have been made in the temperature range of 170 and 580°C. A relatively simple correlation based on the amassed data has been proposed. This correlation allows the estimation of the reaction rate as a function of temperature, conversion of the solids and concentration of sulfur dioxide in the gas phase. The proposed rate law equation makes it possible to predict in a straightforward manner the rate of sorption which would be required to design the performance of a desulfurization unit.
