In the present paper, the multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are utilized to improve the adsorption capacity of the Mn_0.4Cu_0.6Fe₂O₄ adsorbents as well as inhibit the influence of flue gas composition. The influences of temperature, adsorbent type and the flue gas composition on Hg⁰ removal efficiency are evaluated by experiments. The physical adsorption property of MWCNTs provides a platform for Hg⁰ oxidation by Mn_0.4Cu_0.6Fe₂O₄. The synergistic effect between MWCNTs and Mn_0.4Cu_0.6Fe₂O₄ enhances the mercury removal efficiency as well we the sulfur resistance. The results find that the adsorbent of Mn_0.4Cu_0.6Fe₂O₄ containing 14 % MWCNTs has a high mercury removal efficiency of 95.6 % at 120 °C even under 1000 ppm SO₂ concentration. The kinetic behaviors of adsorbent adsorption are analyzed by theoretical models. The mechanisms of porous carbon-containing modifier to improve the mercury removal performance of Mn_0.4Cu_0.6Fe₂O₄ are explored carefully.

The enhancement of CO₂ hydrogenation efficiency to produce valuable hydrocarbons (specifically olefins) on Fe catalysts through Cu modification has been extensively researched. However, there is ongoing vigorous debate regarding the impact of these modifications on catalytic properties and the underlying mechanism. When compared to unprompted iron-based catalysts for CO₂ hydrogenation, the choice of desired products, such as C₂-C₄ and C₅₊, is relatively low. So, promoters are frequently employed to customize and enhance product distribution. This study investigates how adding Cu to Fe-based supported catalysts affects their performance in converting CO₂ to hydrocarbons, with a specific emphasis on the interaction between Fe and Cu. To achieve this goal, catalysts were created using co-precipitation methods, varying the distribution of Fe and Cu within them. A set of composite catalysts underwent testing in a fixed bed setup using a reactant gas mixture at 350 °C and 30 bar pressure. Analysis techniques such as XRD, SEM, TEM, NH₃-TPD, H₂-TPR, and N₂ adsorption-desorption isotherms revealed the presence of iron-copper interaction within the composite catalysts.

For this purpose, DME was mixed with liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and used to fuel three bi-fuel LPG/gasoline spark-ignition engines light-duty vehicles. The suitable fuel blend was selected based on several octane tests using CFR engines. Exhaust emissions were tested over the WLTC and over the hot-start CADC cycles, as well as on the road. All Euro 6 standards were well fully met over the WLTC with both fuels. Switching from gasoline to LPG/DME fueling, the CO and NOx emission factors increased for two vehicles, whereas THC and NMHC decreased. Regarding particulates, for two vehicles the emission factors decreased, too. Generally, when the vehicles were driven on the CADC, lower gaseous emissions were observed compared to WLTC: excluding one vehicle, when switching from gasoline to LPG/DME fueling, the overall emission profiles reflected those of the same vehicles run on the WLTC. The unregulated particulate emissions measured over both testing cycles reflect what was detected for the regulated ones. Except for PN10, which was not measured, all regulated emissions were found to meet the (most severe) Euro 7 standards proposed at first by the European Commission. RDE tests showed that all vehicle emissions obtained from on-road tests were also found to meet the RDE standards, regardless of the fueling. Concerning CO₂ emissions, LPG/DME fueling guaranteed a systematic decrease for all vehicles and cycles, both on road and in the laboratory.

Six representative aromatic model compounds (2-methoxy-4-methylphenol, p-cresol, 2,4-dimethylphenol, o-cresol, guaiacol, and catechol) were selected. The pyrolysis process of model compounds was primarily the cleavage of C-O and C-C bonds, which resulted in the formation of methoxy and methyl radicals. The results revealed that Ca(OH)₂ undergoes acid-base reactions with -OH, thereby increasing the stability of the model compounds. Notably, the impact of Ca(OH)₂ on the composition and distribution of pyrolysis products was significantly more pronounced in aromatic compounds containing both -OCH₃ and -OH compared to those containing solely -OH. The formation pathways of pyrolysis products involving guaiacol and Ca(OH)₂ were elucidated through density functional theory (DFT) calculations, demonstrating that Ca(OH)₂ could facilitate more free radicals release and the conversion of model compounds.

TD-GC-TLI-TOFMS can realize rapid detection of PCDD/Fs emissions from incineration sources. However, the long-term measurement of unclean flue gas will pollute the instruments in TD-GC-TLI-TOFMS, and interfere with the peak output of the target 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene (1,2,4-TrCBz). In this study, Deans switch (DS) was utilized for the first time in an online monitoring system for PCDD/Fs to separate 1,2,4-TrCBz signal from impurity signals, which improved the anti-interference capability of the system. Laboratory standard gas experiments showed that after adding a DS device between GC and TLI pulse valve, when the pressure set in DS was 4 psi and switched before or near the peak output of 1,2,4-TrCBz, the change of 1,2,4-TrCBz signal intensity was minimal. The impurities near the target peak were removed, and TLI-TOFMS was highly stable during continuous measurement. Moreover, the maximum intensity peak time of 1,2,4-TrCBz was stable after using DS in different switching time intervals. When connecting DS to TD-GC-TLI-TOFMS for field validation on the tail flue gas of a municipal solid waste incinerator (MSWI), results showed that a better 1,2,4-TrCBz signal could be obtained with a 69.52 % reduction of impurity peaks at the moments closer to the target peak. Furthermore, DS improved the sensitivity of the system to low concentration variations of 1,2,4-TrCBz in the flue gas.

In this study, we introduce and evaluate two innovative fuel blending methods for ammonia-coal co-firing in a commercial 500 MW utility boiler: burner blending and in-boiler blending. Using computational fluid dynamics simulations, we investigated the effects of 20 % ammonia co-firing on heat transfer efficiency, fuel burnout rate, and pollutant emissions. The results show that while ammonia co-firing effectively reduces CO₂ emissions, it also leads to decreases in the furnace and furnace exit-gas temperatures due to the lower flame temperature and increased moisture production. Specifically, the total heat absorption by the water walls and heat exchangers decreased by 4.58 % in the burner blending method and 2.27 % in the in-boiler blending method compared to that with pure coal combustion. Although ammonia co-firing suppresses the generation of thermal NO, overall NO emissions increase significantly due to the substantial release of fuel NO. However, the in-boiler blending method demonstrated superior NO reduction, reducing NO emissions by 13.48 ppm compared to the burner blending method. In addition, the in-boiler blending method showed better combustion stability, achieving faster ignition and reducing the amount of unburned carbon in fly ash by 0.97 %, compared to that with the burner blending method. This is likely due to the higher concentration of combustible gases near the burner in the in-boiler blending system. These findings indicate that the in-boiler blending method is more effective than the burner blending method for ammonia-coal co-firing in a 500 MW utility boiler. This provides valuable insights into the implementation of ammonia co-firing in commercial boilers as part of efforts to achieve carbon neutrality.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17287,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Energy Institute","volume":"117 ","pages":"Article 101854"},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142422259","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
