The Mitsui Wet Process for SO2 and NOx Removal

A novel wet-scrubbing process using Fe(VI) for simultaneous removal of SO2 and NO.

The objective of this work was to develop a novel wet-scrubbing process using Fe(VI) for the simultaneous removal of gaseous NO and SO(2). The oxidation of SO(2) and NO with Fe(VI) was studied in aqueous solution at alkaline pH (9.0-11.0). A stoichiometric molar ratio for NO and SO(2) oxidation with Fe(VI) was determined to be nearly 3.0. Sulfate and nitrate was identified as final products by ...

UV/ H2O2 Advanced Oxidation Process for Simultaneous Removal of NO and SO2: A Review

This study presents a review on advanced oxidation processes (AOP) for simultaneous removal of NO and SO2. AOP is based on using a strong oxidant such as ozone and H2O2 which is able to generate highly reactive intermediates. The pollutant will be oxidized and removed by these intermediates. In recent years, AOP has been considered as an effective and attractive technology in the field of flue ...

Emission spectrometry of microplasma for NOx removal process

Emission spectra of the microplasma discharge in N2, NO and O2 gas mixture was analyzed. The diagnosis of microplasma discharge was performed in order to understand the processes of NOx removal. An experimental Marx Generator was used as a pulsed power supply. Emission spectra for N2 gas show N2 second positive band system (N2 SPS) and N2 first negative band system (N2 FNS). 1000 ppm NO in N2 e...

Performance Model of the Fluidized Bed Copper Oxide Process for SO2/NOx Control

Economics of Pollution Trading for SO2 and NOx

For years economists have urged policymakers to use market-based approaches such as cap-and-trade programs or emission taxes to control pollution. The SO2 allowance market created by Title IV of the 1990 U.S. Clean Air Act Amendments represents the first real test of the wisdom of economists’ advice. Subsequent urban and regional applications of NOx emission allowance trading took shape in the ...
