SUNNZATION:
The need to reduce the emission of different acidic pollutants to the atmosphere has led to
extensive research on their removal from waste and flue gases. While large-scale cleaning
********* Vally employ relatively inexpensive calcium or magnesium-based sorbents,
ential of Nascos decahydrate should also be explored. Such very effective materials can be
employed for capture of gaseous, weak acidic pollutants and difficult odors. A practical way of
contacting gases (air in this case) with particulate solids is provided by a fluidized bed. The
knowledge of the minimum fluidization makes it possible to model the performance of a
Sized bed (bubbling) reactor since it permits the prediction of the amount of gas which
passes through the bed in the form of bubbles.
85% of the hydrated crystals collected during crystallization will be used as a fluidizing sorbent
bed to remove acidic pollutant and difficult odors from gas at 30°C whose density is 1.23
and viscosity of 1.82x10 Pa s.
