The Regeneration Properties of Manganese Oxide Sorbent under SO2 Atmosphere

Article Preview

Abstract:

The effects of temperature and concentration of sulfur dioxide on regeneration behavior of manganese oxide sorbent were studied in a fixed-bed reactor. The sorbents were characterized by X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Subsequently, the regeneration mechanism was inferred and the yield of export elemental sulfur was calculated. The study shows that, the major regeneration products are Mn3O4, MnSO4 and a small amount of elemental sulfur under SO2 atmosphere.The sulfate can be converted to Mn3O4 and Mn2O3 at 800 °C under N2 atmosphere. The elemental sulfur productivity increases with the increase of temperature and concentration of sulfur dioxide.The regeneration conversion attains maximum value (68%) at 800 °C under the atmosphere of 1.68% SO2, and the productivity of elemental sulfur reaches to maximum value (29%) under the conditions.
