The experiments of arsenic removal from flue gas were investigated at a lab-scale bubbling reactor with H 2 O 2 solution to develop a novel oxidation process. The effects of various experimental parameters, such as H 2 O 2 concentration, initial solution pH, reaction temperature, and flue gas components (O 2 , CO 2 , SO 2 , and NO) were systematically investigated, and the average removal efficiency was found to be 92.6%, under the obtained optimal conditions, in which H 2 O 2 concentration was 0.2 mol/L, solution pH was 5.0, and reaction temperature was 50 °C. Meanwhile, the mechanism of the reaction was proposed based on characterizations of the removed products by high performance liquid chromatography coupled to hydride generation atomic fluorescence spectrometry, atomic fluorescence spectrometry as well as a review of the literature.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
