Influence of chemical and thermodynamic parameters on the flue gas desulphurization efficiency in a circulating fluidized bed

An experimental study has been performed systematically on flue gas desulphurization by using circulating fluidized bed. The relationship, between desulphurization efficiency and the parameters of thermodynamics and chemistry, was investigated basically. It is shown that the bed temperature and the vapor partial pressure in the bed are the important parameters that influence the desulphurization efficiency. The closer the bed temperature to the dew point and the higher the vapor partial pressure, the higher is the desulphurization efficiency. With increasing of Ca/S, the desulphurization efficiency ascends. Comparing with different operating methods, the optimum method has been found.
