This study was dedicated to enhancing coal-fired power plant (CFPP) sustainability by enhancing the Hg 0 oxidation efficiency in the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) process by injecting powder NH 4 Cl. It is relatively harmless, energy-saving, and easy to handle, can be easily sublimated to NH 3 and HCl at the SCR-operating temperature, and can simultaneously reduce NO and oxidize Hg 0 . In the honeycomb-type H1.5-VWT, the Hg 0 oxidation efficiencies were 58.7 and 74.6% when HCl was supplied at 10 and 30 ppm, respectively, by powdered NH 4 Cl feeding. Shell mass balance-based models were developed to associate the performances of the powdered and honeycomb catalysts, and the surface area-normalized kinetic rates were evaluated. Ultimately, the NO reduction and Hg 0 oxidation efficiencies could be predicted based on the vanadia content, honeycomb size, and gas composition. Solid-phase NH 4 Cl injection can be conveniently applied in the SCR process and is expected to improve the sustainability of CFPPs.
