석탄가스화 기술은 석탄을 고온/고압 조건에서 가스화 반응시켜 CO와 $H_2$가 주성분인 합성가스(syngas)로 전환시키는 기술이다. 그러나 가스화 반응으로 인해 합성가스 내에는 불순물인 $H_2S$, COS, $NH_3$ 등의 오염 물질이 발생하게 되며, 가스터빈의 부식, 촉매의 피독, 전극의 성능 저하 현상 등을 일으켜 효율을 저하시키게 된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 FeMgO 촉매를 제거용매로 사용하여 $H_2S$를 효과적으로 제거하기 위하여 Lab-scale 탈황 설비를 제작하였으며, 석탄 가스화 운전에 연계하여 합성가스 내 포함된 산성가스 정제 특성에 관한 연구를 진행하였다.

Regarding the design of the gas sweetening absorber, the gas distribution analysis for the increase of the sour gas removal and reduction of the tower height is very important research topics. Recently, regarding the $CO_2$ capture technology which is a promising option for the reduction of the greenhouse gas (GHG), the need for the gas distribution improvement is increased as the gas treating capacity increases. In this paper, we have investigated the sour gas distribution in the absorber using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) based on 10 MW post-combustion $CO_2$ capture plant installed in Boryeong power station, Korea Midland Power company. For this purpose, we suggested the three possible technology options (splash plate, spiral gas line and U-tube) for the gas distribution enhancement and compared the effect of the each cases. The result showed that the U-tube installed in the absorber increase the gas distribution about 30% compared to the base case, while the delta P increasement was about 10%. From these results, it was found that the U-tube installation is an effective technology option for the gas distribution enhancement in the gas sweetening absorber.

To make synthetic liquid fuel from biomass such as wood pellet, energy crop and so on, a biomass to liquid (BTL) process by using a biomass gasifier with Fisher-Tropsch (FT) reaction was developed. However $H_2S$, COS and $CO_2$ in syngas from biomass gasifiers resulted in a decrease of the conversion efficiency and the deactivation of the catalyst. To remove acid gases in syngas, a lab-scale methanol absorption tower was developed and the removal characteristics of acid gases were investigated. The methanol absorption tower efficiently removed $H_2S$ and COS with a removal of $CO_2$, so it could be useful process for the BTL process.

Sour gas is natural gas or any other gas containing significant amounts of hydrogen sulfide ($H_2S$). Natural gas is usually considered sour gas if there are more than 5.7 milligrams of $H_2S$ per cubic meter of natural gas, which is equivalent to approximately 4 ppm by volume under standard temperature and pressure We have surveyed on the treatment and removal technology of sour gas, sour gas include a lot of hydrogen sulfide($H_2S$), Carbon dioxide($CO_2$), utane($C_4H_{10}$) and mercaptan($C_nH_{4n-1}SH$) etc. We need high technology for development for these kinds of raw gases and we should specially take care of treating and removal of theses raw gases. Therefor we are going to describe about these kinds of raw gases and about methods how to treat these kinds of gases.

암모니아는 대기 중에서 가장 대표적으로 존재하는 염기성 미량기체로서 SOx나 NOx와 같은 산성기체와 반응하여 대기중 산성도를 중화시키고 2차적 에어로졸을 생성한다. 암모니아가스는 이 반응에 의하여 에어로졸 내에서는 암모늄 이온(${NH_4}^{+}$)으로 존재하게 된다. 산성기체를 중화시킨다는 입장에서 염생성 반응은 산성기체의 제거 기작이 될 수 있으나 이 때 생성된 에어로졸은 주로 PM2.5 이하의 2차적 에어로졸로 존재하여 호흡기장애, 건물 부식, 시정 감소 등의 피해를 주는 오염물질이 된다. (중략)

Under the Irradiation of the radiofrequency wave, the dipole materials vibrate as microwavic phase change. This causes friction between adjacent molecules and enables an unique charateristics of interior heating of the materials. When dipole gases are adsorbed inside of a solid radiofrequency wave absorber, the gases can be decomposed easily by the microwave energy. The decomposition of sour gases was successfully tested in this manner to develop a sour gas removal process from the combustion flue gas. The standard gas bearing NO and $SO_2$ was passed through and microwave was applied on the calcined char bed as the wave absorber and the gas adsorbent. It was found that more then 95% of NO and 70 % of $SO_2$ was decomposed to the environmentally clean elements during the passage through the 20 gram char bed under the microwave impingement. The surface area and the porosity of char increased because the oxygen radicals produced from decomposed gas attacked carbon in the char capillaries and formed $CO_2$. For a lower concentration of sour gas, general cases in the commercial combustion processes, almost complete decomposion is believed possible and this method is surely expected to be useful for the prevention of air pollutions.

The influence of noxious corrosive gas, which is the product of fossil fuel, and the acidic descent material, which becomes the reason for such reaction, on wax which protects the cultural assets, and the habitat factor were researched. It could be viewed that corrosion occurred rapidly due to the acidic descent material, which have the long staying on the material, rather than harmful corrosive gas. Also, it could be figured out that such corrosion began from whitening phenomenon of coated wax. As the acidity increased, more whitening phenomenon occurred, and eventually, it could be found out that whitening effect began due to the acidic descent material, corrosive gas and various 0.1 M acid solution, which lead to the exposure of internal metal, and corrosion occurred. The wax with the greatest resistance to the acidity due to its least changing aspect seemed to be Renaissance wax, except sulfuric acid.

The acid gas removal (AGR) system was designed and installed to remove $H_2S$ in coal syngas in the pilot-scale coal gasification system for producing chemicals like Dimethyl Ether(DME). The syngas from the coal gasification at the rate of $100{\sim120$ $Nm^3$/hr included pollutants such as fly ash. $H_2S$, COS, $NH_3$, etc. The designed temperature and pressure of the AGR system are below 50oC and 8 kg/$cm^2$. Fe-chelate was used as an absorbent. $H_2S$ was stably removed below 0.5 ppm in the AGR system when the concentration of $H_2S$ was $150{\sim}450$ ppm. The pH of Fe-chelate solution was also stably maintained between $8{\sim}9$. FeMgO absorbent was also tested to remove $H_2S$ in the lab-scale AGR system and $H_2S$ was also removed below 0.5 ppm in the initial operation.

Using dried sludge as a secondary fuel of a coal-fired power plant is proposed as an alternative option for sludge disposal. Because elemental contents of sludge are different from those of coal, different levels of acidic gas emissions are expected from the co-combustion of sludge with coal. In this study, sludge samples were obtained from 7 sewage treatment plants in Korea. Each sludge sample was combusted together with coal in a lab-scale combustor, and the concentrations of nitrogen oxides ($NO_x$), sulfur dioxide ($SO_2$), hydrogen chloride (HCl), chlorine ($Cl_2$) in the flue gas were analyzed. Compared to the combustion of coal only, $NO_x$ concentration was slightly higher in the flue gas from the co-combustion of coal and sludge. $SO_2$ emission increased with the combustion of sludge due to the higher content of sulfur in sludge than in coal. For most of the tested samples, the concentrations of HCl and $Cl_2$ were varied depending on the chlorine content in the sludge sample.

대기 중 인위적 자연적 발생원에 기인하는 SO$_2$, NOx 및 HCs는 균일반응(homogeneous reaction)과 불균일반응(heterogenous reaction)을 통해서 산화되어 산성가스와 에어로졸을 형성한다. 대부분의 산성물질은 대기 중 구름, 안개, 에어로졸 액적중에서 균일반응을 통해 생성되며, 입자표면에서 가스상 물질의 불균일반응은 에어로졸농도가 높은 배출원 근처에서 국한된다. 이와 같은 반응을 통해 생성된 산성오염물질 및 전구물질은 건성 및 습성침적(dry and wet deposition)을 통해 지표면에 침강되어 생태계에 직ㆍ간접적인 영향을 줄 뿐만 아니라 산성우 및 동식물의 호흡기질환에 중요한 영향을 미친다.(Petros et al., 1989) (중략)
