FLUE GAS DESULPHURIZATION PLANT (FGD)

1. General As SOX gas, mainly consist of SO2, is health hazardous and causes deforestation due to acid rain, environmental restriction in SOX has been stringent and most of coal fired power stations in Japan these days have come equipped with FGD. The most commonly prevailing process to eliminate SOX in flue gas these days is to use limestone (CaCO3) to absorb SO2 and convert to gypsum (CaSO4 2H2O). Depending on restriction standard, more than 95% of SO2 in flue gas is removed and gypsum can be sold to construction material industries to produce plasterboard. Exhibit 25 shows relationship between required SO2 removal efficiency (%) and emission standard (mg/m3) for different sulphur content of coal. Exhibit 26 shows relationship between sulphur content of coal (%) and FGD efficiency (%) to meet 1.00 ppm SO2 emission standard for example. 2. Type of FGD a. Conventional Type FGD SO2 absorption tower and oxidation tower are separately installed and chemical reaction are as follows: Absorption: SO2 + CaCO3 + H2O Oxidation: CaSO3. H2O + O2 + 3/2 H2O Exhibit 30 shows a general concept of FGD. b. Advanced type of FGD Absorption and oxidation take place in a single tower, which can save capital investment. SO2 in flue gas reacts with limestone (CaCO3) in slurry spray and becomes Ca (HSO3)2 in the first place. Then in the tank following chemical reactions take place gypsum is discharged. Ca (HSO3)2 O2 Ca(HSO3)2 + O2 + 2H2O (air) CaSO4. 2H2O + H2SO4 (gypsum) H2SO4 + CaSO4.2H2O CaCO3 (limestone) CaCO3 + H2SO4 + H2O CaSO4. 2H2O + CO2 (gypsum) CaSO4. 2H2O (Gypsum) CaSO3. H2O + CO2 (Calcium sulphate)

CaSO4. 2H2O + CO2

3. Location of FGD FGD is normally installed in the back end of the whole system. Flue gas temperature after FGD would be in the order of 45oC~55oC. In order to enhance dispersion effect of remaining SO2, NOX and dust out of chimney stack flue gas would normally be heated up by GGH (heat exchanger). Graph, graph, gambar.....
