The distribution of seventeen gaseous and particle-bound 2,3,7,8-substituted chlorinated PCDD/Fs in the flue gas of different windboxes of the sintering machine was analyzed.The influence of temperature change on the PCDD/Fs emission from the sintering process and the formation mechanism of PCDD/Fs were discussed.The result has shown that among the seventeen gaseous and particle-bound PCDD/Fs in the flue gas of different windboxes,furans occupied the major place.The proportion of the gaseous PCDD/Fs in most windboxes is from 40% to 60%.The change tendencies of the concentration of both the gaseous and particle-bound PCDD/Fs were similar,with a higher level at the end of the sintering bed.The PCDD/Fs concentration's change tendency in the windbox was very consistent with the change of temperature of the flue gas in the windboxes.More than 60% PCDD/Fs of the total PCDD/Fs emission amount was emitted at the end of the sintering bed.Only this part of the waste gas accounted for 12% of the total waste gas volume.
This study was designed to clarify the influence of operating conditions on the formation and emissions of polychlorinated-p-dibenzodioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) from a sintering process with hot flue gas recycling. A pilot scale sinter pot with simulated flue gas recycling was developed, and four key operational parameters, including temperature, oxygen content of the simulated waste flue gas, the coke rate of the sintering mixture, and the quicklime quality, were selected for exploring PCDD/Fs formation. The results showed that the temperature of the recycled flue gas had a major affect on PCDD/Fs formation, and a high temperature could significantly increase their formation during sintering. A clear linear correlation between the temperature of recycling flue gas and PCDD/Fs emission (r = 0.93) was found. PCDD/Fs could be reduced to a certain extent by decreasing the level of oxygen in the recycled flue gas, while sintering quality was unchanged. The coke rate had no significant influence on the formation of PCDD/Fs, but the quality of quicklime used in the sintering mixture could affect not only the amount of PCDD/Fs emissions but also the sintering productivity. Compared with a benchmark sinter pot test, PCDD/Fs emissions markedly decreased with improvements to quicklime quality. However, the reduction in PCDD/Fs emissions realized by using high-quality quicklime was limited by the temperature of the inlet gas. The highest reduction achieved was 51% compared with conventional quicklime when the temperature of the inlet gas was 150°C.
在实验室模拟了纸浆的工业次氯酸盐单段漂白过程,对该过程中二英(polychlorinated dibenzo-pdioxins and polychlorinated dibenzofurans,PCDD/Fs)的生成情况进行了研究,结果表明,次氯酸盐漂白过程中有少量PCDD/Fs生成,且产物以TCDF为主.在此基础上,研究了不同次氯酸钠用量和不同初始pH对PCDD/Fs的影响.结果显示,在较高次氯酸盐用量条件下PCDD/Fs浓度降低,说明高次氯酸钠用量对PCDD/Fs的生成有一定的抑制,或者对PCDD/Fs有降解作用;pH值对PCDD/Fs生成的影响主要表现在PCDD上,在中性和弱酸性条件下,高氯代PCDD的量有所增加,而TCDD减少.对草浆甲苯提取物和提取后纸浆次氯酸盐漂白产物对比发现,次氯酸盐漂白过程中PCDD/Fs的生成主要来源于可提取部分.因此,在工业次氯酸盐漂白过程中可以通过增加水洗次数的方法来减少漂白过程总有机氯化物的生成.
