摘要:
A method for endothermically dissociating contaminated acid wherein high velocity oxidant causes a recirculation flow within a combustion zone and combusts with fuel to release heat and wherein the heat is efficiently applied by the internal recirculation to the acid for endothermic dissociation of the acid.
摘要:
A gas mixture including sulphur dioxide is recovered from sulphate waste material by burning a fuel to form a flame zone l4, introducing sulphate waste material into the zone and introducing pure oxygen or other oxygen-rich gas into the flame zone l4 to support combustion of the fuel and to generate a flame of sufficient temperature to crack solid sulphate waste material and thereby liberate sulphur dioxide therefrom. Solids exiting the flame zone are separated from the gaseous combustion products. The sulphate waste material may be taken from a plant for making titanium dioxide pigment by the sulphate route.
摘要:
A quench system for cooling and/or cleaning metallurgical gases which are guided cocurrently with an acid-containing liquid, in particular sulfuric acid, includes a gas inlet (51) through which the gases are supplied from the top, an annular channel (55) extending about the inner circumference of an upper Venturi portion (52), over whose inner overflow wall (57) the acid-containing liquid flows over into the upper Venturi portion (52), and lateral nozzles (58) provided below the annular channel (55), through which additional acid-containing liquid is introduced. To obtain a clear separation between wall portions of the Venturi portion exposed to dry/hot or wet/cold conditions, the inside diameter (D1 ) of the upper Venturi portion (52) is greater than the inside diameter (D2) of the gas inlet (51), in accordance with the present invention.
摘要:
A conventional method for the regeneration of sulphuric acid from sulphur-containing residual materials comprises the following method steps: thermal cleavage of the residual material in a cleavage reactor by combustion of one or several energy sources with an oxidising agent in the form of oxygen to form process gas with a given sulphur dioxide content, generation of contact gas by mixing of the process gas with oxygen-containing gas, introduction of the contact gas into a contact kettle in a sulphuric acid contact plant and catalytic reaction of the sulphur dioxide contained in the contact gas to give sulphuric acid and/or oleum. According to the invention, an economical method, starting from the above, can be provided, permitting an increase in the turnover of sulphur dioxide of a contact plant, in particular permitting the design capacity of the contact system for an existing contact system for the production of sulphuric acid and/or oleum to be exceeded without any disadvantages, whereby at least a first partial stream of the contact gas is introduced in to a pre-contact vessel before introduction into the contact vessel, in which sulphur dioxide is oxidised to give an SO3-containing reaction gas and the SO3-containing reaction gas is introduced into an intermediate absorber, in which SO3 is absorbed and finally introduced into the contact vessel in the form of an SO2-depleted gas.
摘要:
Liquid waste material, particularly material containing sulphuric acid, may be combusted using an oxygen-rich material by a process in which: (i) a primary oxidant and fuel issuing from a burner are combusted in a furnace, the proportion of primary oxidant to fuel being such that there is insufficient oxygen to combust the fuel completely, (ii) introducing into the furnace the liquid waste material in atomised form around the burner, (iii) introducing into the furnace spaced from the burner a secondary oxidant which contains sufficient oxygen to combust completely the fuel not combusted by the primary oxidant the direction in which each of the primary oxidant, fuel and liquid waste material is introduced being such that the substances flow in substantially the same direction, the rate at which the primary oxidant, fuel, liquid waste material and secondary oxidant are introduced being such that a plug flow of substances through the furnace is created.
摘要:
A process for the preparation of sulfuric acid by burning the oxidizable components of a feed solution obtained as a by-product of the preparation of 2-hydroxy-4-(methylthio)butyric acid ('HMBA') by hydrolysis of 2-hydroxy-4-(methylthio)butyronitrile ('HMBN'). A combustion gas containing sulfur dioxide is produced. The combustion gas is cooled to condense water and sulfuric acid, then mixed with a source of oxygen to produce a feed gas containing at least about 0.9 moles oxygen per mole sulfur dioxide. The feed gas is passed over a catalyst for the conversion of sulfur dioxide to sulfur trioxide at a temperature effective for the conversion. Sulfur trioxide may be absorbed in concentrated sulfuric acid to generate additional sulfuric acid which may be recycled and used for hydrolysis of HMBN in the preparation of HMBA. The process may be operated as a closed system in which ammonium bisulfate by-product of HMBA manufacture is used as the source of sulfur for the generation of sulfuric acid used in the hydrolysis of HMBN to HMBA.
摘要:
Waste sulphuric acid is dried in a drier 10 and the resulting dried acid is decomposed in a reactor 12 by contact with a volume of liquid sulphur through which oxygen is passed. The decomposition products of the sulphuric acid initially comprise water vapour and sulphur trioxide. The sulphur trioxide is reduced to sulphur dioxide by sulphur vapour. The resulting mixture comprising sulphur, sulphur dioxide and water vapour has sulphur condensed therefrom. The sulphur dioxide content of the gas mixture is reacted with hydrogen sulphide in a Claus plant 14 to form a sulphur product. Alternatively the mixture containing sulphur vapour can be reacted with a hydrocarbon such as methane to form hydrogen sulphide and carbon disulphide which in turn are reacted with the sulphur dioxide to form the sulphur product.
