Description
Summary:The environmental problem caused by industrial emissions of NOx has been studied in the past dacades. In this study, red mud coupling with phosphorus sludge were used to enhance the solution to absorb NOx from the flue gas. Firstly, red mud reacted with the binder silicic acid in the phosphorus sludge, destroying the emulsion structure of the phosphorus sludge. Then, the P4 in the phosphorus sludge is completely released, and the P4 reacted with O2 in the flue gas to produce O3 and O. NO and NO2 contained in the flue gas reacted with the active O and O3 to produce high-valent NOx, such as NO3, N2O5. At last, the mixed slurry of red mud and phosphorus sludge absorbed the high-valent NOx, resulting in the formation of Ca5(PO4)3F along with HNO3. Using phosphorus sludge to produce O3 in the reaction process can reduce the production cost of O3 and achieve waste utilization. Meanwhile, the interaction between red mud and phosphorus sludge can promote phosphorus sludge to produce O3 and remove F- from phosphorus sludge, as well as avoid the problem of secondary pollution. This study should be helpful for red mud and phosphorus sludge utilization and flue gas denitration.
