배연탈황석고는 화력발전소에서 연료가 연소되면서 발생된 황산화물을 흡수, 제거하는 공정에서 발생되는 산업 부산물로서 최근 석탄 화력발전소의 배출가스에 관련된 환경규제가 대폭 강화됨에 따라 생산량이 점차 증가하고 있다. 배연탈황석고는 자연에서 얻어지는 형태의 천연석고와 거의 유사한 화학적 특성을 지니기 때문에, 이를 재활용하게 되면, 주로 수입에 의존하는 천연석고의 훌륭한 대체재로서 활용할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내의 보령 화력발전소에서 생산된 배연탈황석고의 화학적 특성을 분석하고, 이를 이용하여 만든 시멘트 페이스트의 물성분석을 통하여, 배연탈황석고의 활용가능성을 평가하고자 하였다. 본 연구의 결과에 따르면, 배연탈황석고는 상당히 높은 순도를 가지며, 천연석고와 물성이 매우 유사한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 이를 적절하게 열처리하게 되면, 압축강도 및 건조수축에서의 개선효과를 얻을 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

경유는 연료전지 시스템의 연료원으로써 주목받고 있는 탄화수소 액체연료 중 하나로, 연료개질 촉매와 연료전지의 전극재료를 피독시키는 황화합물을 포함하고 있어 탈황공정이 필요한 것으로 여겨지고 있다. 다양하고도 대안적인 탈황기술이 연구되고 있으나, 초저유황 경유의 탈황 연구는 여전히 부진한 실정이다. 본 연구는 용융탄산염 연료전지 시스템에 응용될 수 있는 원료인 상용초저유황 경유의 탈황에 관한 것이다. 여기서 초저유황의 흡착탈황을 위한 흡착제로 활성탄, 제올라이트, 금속산화물 계 상용흡착제 후보군이 선정되었고 유망한 탈황제를 찾기 위한 스크리닝 평가를 실시하였다. 그 결과 초저유황 경유의 황농도를 0.1 ppmw 수준까지 떨어뜨리기 위한 흡착제 종류로 금속산화물계가 매우 유용하며, 활성탄과 제올라이트 흡착제는 같은 실험조건에서 해당 수준의 황 농도에 이르지 못하는 것으로 나타났다.

석유탈황용 균주인 Gordona sp. CYKS1을 ethylmethanesulfone 처리하여 돌연변이 균주 EID를 개발하여, dibenzothiophene(DBT) 탈황 특성을 조사하였다. EID 균주는 DBT를 2-hydroxybiphenyl(2-HBP)와 sulfate로 대사하는 4S pathway를 가지며, wild type인 CYKS1이 $2.6{\mu}mol{\cdot}L^{-1}{\cdot}h^{-1}$의 탈황속도를 보이는 반면, EID균주는 $4.0{\mu}mol{\cdot}L^{-1}{\cdot}h^{-1}$의 탈황속도를 나타내었다. 탄소원으로 공급된 glucose의 농도가 EID 균주의 DBT탈황속도에 미치는 영향을 조사한 결과 glucose의 농도가 증가할수록 탈황속도가 증가하였다. 또한, DBT 분해속도에 미치는 DBT의 초기 농도의 영향을 알아본 결과, 2.0 mM에서 최대 DBT 분해활성($11.1{\mu}mol{\cdot}L^{-1}{\cdot}h^{-1}$)을 나타내었다. 최종 대사산물인 2-HBP와 sulfate 농도가 증가할수록 EID 균주의 DBT 분해능은 감소하였다. 0.2 mM의 2-HBP를 첨가한 배지에서는 EID 균주의 성장과 DBT 탈황능은 완전 저해 받았다. Sulfate가 0.5g/L 첨가된 조건에서의 EID 균주의 DBT 탈황속도는 $1.4{\mu}mol{\cdot}L^{-1}{\cdot}h^{-1}$이었다.

This study was performed to develop the modified FGD(Flue Gas Desulfurization) process which can eliminate the possibility of generating secondary pollutants. Limestone was regenerated by adding ammonium hydroxide and carbon dioxide, and reusing it as a absorbent in FGD gypsum Process. A series of the new or modified FGD process which include desulfurization and regeneration limestone from CaSO$_3$. 1/2H20 and CaSO4 . 2H2O, were carried out under various experimental conditions. The results showed that the optimum injection ratio for regeneration of limestone was 0.3 ml/min of CO2 flow rate, 2 ml of NH4OH per 0.01 M of regent grade CaSO4 . 2H20O and the optimum regeneration temperature was 50. The increaser was the number of times of limestone regeneration, the faster was the breakthrough point of desulfurization at the desulfurination process which the regenerated limestone was used. Then the efficiency of desulrurization was decreased. This study can be confirmed the possibility for reuse of regenerated limestone due to the similarity of desulfurization characteries both reagent grade calcium carbonate and regenerated calcium carbonate. Finally, it appeared that the new technology using regenerated 1imestone can be applied to the FGD process.

Recently, there has been much research on the effect of ultrafine dust on human body with increasing interest in the ultrafine dust. In the Republic of Korea, there are many old thermal power plants, and the amount of ultrafine dust emitted from the thermal power plants is reported to be about 14% of the total amount of domestic fine dust. Therefore, the amount of fine dust from the flue gas desulfurization facility in the thermal power plant needs be reduced. In this study, we made an experimental setup to simulate a flue gas desulfurization facility and analyzed the physical characteristics of the particles passing through a mist eliminator. Experiments were carried out to investigate the collection efficiency of the mist eliminator by using the Arizona Test Dust in a dry environment, and then spraying limestone slurry into the flue gas desulfurization system equipped with the mist eliminator to examine the size and morphology of limestone particles upstream and downstream of the mist eliminator. Cut-off size of the mist eliminator was formed at about $6{\mu}m$. The result of this study is expected to be helpful for designing an electrostatic precipitator for removing particles passing through the mist eliminator.

For the purpose of reducing the amount of limestone, which is used as a desulfurization agent to absorbing $SO_X$ gas in thermal power plants, and to recycle limestone sludge generated from a steel mill, limestone sludge was utilized as a desulfurization agent. In this study, cement, made of flue gas desulfurization (FGD) gypsum obtained in a desulfurization process using limestone sludge, was manufactured then, experiments were conducted to identify the physical properties of the paste and mortar using the cement. The results of the crystal phase and microstructure analyses showed that the hydration product of the manufactured cement was similar to that of ordinary Portland cement. No significant decline of workability or compressive strength was observed for any of the specimens. From the results of the experiment, it was determined that FGD gypsum manufactured from limestone sludge did not influence the physical properties of the cement also, quality change did not occur with the use of limestone sludge in the flue gas desulfurization process.

The desulfurization genes (dszABC) were cloned from Gordonia nitida. Nucleotide sequences similarity between the dszABC genes of G. nitida and those of Rhodococcus rhodochrous IGTS8 was 89%. The similarities of deduced amino acids between the two were 86% for DszA, 86% for DszB, and 90% for DszC. The G. nitida dszABC genes were expressed in several different Escherichia coli strains under an inducible trc promoter. Cultivation of these metabolically engineered E. coli strains in the presence of 0.2 mM dibenzothiophene (DBT) allowed the conversion of DBT to 2-hydroxybiphenyl (2-HBP), which is the final metabolite of the sulfur-specific desulfurization pathway. The maximum conversion of DBT to 2-HBP was 16% in 60 h. Recombinant E. coli was applied for the deep desulfurization of diesel oil supplemented into the medium at 5% (v/v). Sulfur content in diesel oil was decreased from 250 mg sulfur/1 to 212.5 mg sulfur/1, resulting in the removal of 15% of sulfur in diesel oil in 60 h.

A great deal of research has been carried out in the last twenty some years to develop high temperature desulfurization. For example, the efficiency of advanced power generation processes based on the integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) can be increased significantly with high temperature desulfurization. Much of the recent high temperature desulfurization research has concentrated on zinc-based sorbents such as zinc ferrite(ZnFe$_2$O$_4$) and zinc titanate(ZnO.xTiO$_2$) due to its thermodynamic advantage in capturing H$_2$S molecules.(omitted)

We tried to develope a desulfurization sorbent using eggshell for recycling, practicability, and economic development. The calcination character of the eggshell was examined by thermal gravimetric analysis and qualitative-quantitative character by X-ray diffractometer(XRD) and scanning electron microscope(SEM). The calcination was occurred easily in the case of eggshell and its form was changed from calcite($CaCO_3$) to lime(CaO). The grain and pore sizes of the calcined sample after base-treatment were larger and more crystallic. The adsorption ability of the eggshell was two- to six-times in the calcination temperature more than in the grain size. Therefore, the eggshell was thought to be usable as the desulfurization sorbent.
