Abstract

• Modified tonstein (CuBr 2 -TCS) effectively removed Hg0 from simulated flue gas. • O 2 significantly facilitated Hg0 removal by the spent adsorbent after the cycle. • The adding order of NO and SO 2 had a large effect on the performance of CuBr 2 -TCS. • Both Cu2+ and Br played key roles in the process of Hg0 removal. Tonstein in coal seam (TCS) is a kind of mining solid waste, which was developed to a novel adsorbent (CuBr 2 -TCS) by using copper bromide modification. In this paper, CuBr 2 -TCS was subjected to elemental mercury (Hg0) removal experiment in simulated coal-fired flue gas (SFG). Several characterization methods were used to determine the mineralogical characteristics of TCS and reaction mechanisms. In-depth, the Hg0 removal performances of CuBr 2 -TCS under different flue gas components were explored. The results revealed that CuBr 2 -TCS exhibited 92.1% and 78.3% Hg0 removal efficiency in dry and wet SFG, respectively. HCl and O 2 facilitated Hg0 removal performance of CuBr 2 -TCS by supplementing oxygen atoms and halogens, respectively, accompanying some intermediate transition products such as Cu 2 OBr 2. SO 2 played a serious suppressive role. SO 2 acting alone or NO and SO 2 acting simultaneously caused irreversible changes in the surface functional groups that formed active sites with NO. However, the thermal stability of the adsorbed mercury on the adsorbent which was spent in N 2 + SO 2 + O 2 atmosphere became better. In addition, the spent adsorbent that first went through the Hg0 removal process in N 2 + NO atmosphere, exhibited higher Hg0 removal efficiency in N 2 + SO 2 + NO atmosphere than that first reacted in N 2 + SO 2 atmosphere. CuBr 2 -TCS is a cost-effective adsorbent for the Hg0 abatement from the coal-fired flue gas (CFG). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
