Influence Rules of Texture on the Stability of High Temperature Coal Gas Desulfurization Sorbent

Abstract:

Pulverizing problem, low mechanical strength and poor wear resistance of desulfurization sorbent limit the further development and industrialization of hot coal gas desulfurization technology. The present paper highlighted on the recent progress of hot gas desulfurization researches and gave a fully detailed introduction on physical parameters that reflect the texture of desulfurizer: specific surface area, pore volume, pore size and its distribution, porosity, fractal dimension and so on. Different from the traditional physical parameters, fractal dimension, as a comprehensive physical parameter describing a fractal structure, reflects the regularity degree of a porous structure. With the increase of sorbent fractal dimension, the complexity of pore spatial geometrical features increases, and the porosity and average diameter for pore decrease. The specific surface area also increased consequentially with the increase of micro-pore. Besides, this paper also investigated the proper texture of desulfurization sorbent that is favorable for desulfurization process on the basis of desulfurization mechanism for fuel gas.
