Description
本発明は例えば石炭火力発電所や医療廃棄物焼却装置、下水汚泥焼却装置から出る排ガス中に含まれる水銀の除去方法および装置に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for removing mercury contained in exhaust gas discharged from, for example, a coal-fired power plant, a medical waste incinerator, and a sewage sludge incinerator.
近年、環境中への水銀排出をさらに削減することが求められている。特に火力発電所や医療廃棄物焼却装置、下水汚泥焼却装置から発生する排ガス中に含まれる水銀が環境中に排出される水銀総量に占める割合が増加しつつあり、日本国内における各排出量は年間数トン〜十数トンにも達し、先行する欧米に続いてわが国でもその対策が急務となっている。 In recent years, there has been a demand for further reducing mercury emissions into the environment. In particular, the ratio of mercury contained in exhaust gas generated from thermal power plants, medical waste incinerators, and sewage sludge incinerators to the total amount of mercury discharged into the environment is increasing. Several tons and dozens of tons have been reached, and countermeasures are urgently required in Japan following the leading Western countries.
ガスおよびダストからの水銀除去方法として、従来、バイオマスを被処理物（例えば火力発電所における石炭）と混焼することでバイオマス中の塩素分を利用して排ガス中の塩素量を増加させて、水銀を酸化して排ガス中の水銀を除去する方法が提案されている（特許文献１）。同文献には、水銀酸化用触媒によって水銀を酸化すること、塩素量が不足した場合には塩化水素を排ガスに注入することが開示されている。 As a method for removing mercury from gas and dust, conventionally, biomass is co-fired with an object to be treated (for example, coal in a thermal power plant), and the amount of chlorine in the exhaust gas is increased by utilizing the chlorine content in the biomass. A method has been proposed in which mercury in the exhaust gas is removed by oxidizing oxygen (Patent Document 1). This document discloses that mercury is oxidized by a mercury oxidation catalyst, and that hydrogen chloride is injected into exhaust gas when the amount of chlorine is insufficient.
また、塩化水素等の塩素化剤を添加せずハニカム状等の固体触媒によって水銀を酸化し、アルカリ吸収液によって水銀を除去する方法も提案されている（特許文献２）。
特許文献１の方法では、混焼するバイオマスの組成が一定しないため、加えるべき塩素量の制御が困難であり、状況によっては多量のバイオマスを必要とし、その結果焼却残渣が著しく増加するという問題があった。 In the method of Patent Document 1, since the composition of the biomass to be co-fired is not constant, it is difficult to control the amount of chlorine to be added. It was.
また、特許文献２に示されるようなハニカム成形タイプの触媒では水銀除去性能は十分でなく、かつ劣化時の触媒交換に多大な労力と時間を要していた。
Further, the honeycomb forming type catalyst as shown in
本発明はこれらの問題を解決することを企図したもので、水銀含有排ガスの処理過程において塩化水素ガスを吹き込み、さらに該排ガス中に反応性に優れた粉体状の触媒を通過させることで排ガス中の水銀（主としてゼロ価のＨｇ）を高効率に酸化し、これを排ガスダスト中に取り込み、ダストは後段に設けた集塵機により分離除去し、得られたダスト中の水銀は加熱および湿式処理により、ほぼ全量金属状態で回収し、さらに処理後のダストはセメント原料をはじめとする再利用に供する。 The present invention is intended to solve these problems, and injecting hydrogen chloride gas in the process of treating the mercury-containing exhaust gas, and further passing the powdered catalyst having excellent reactivity into the exhaust gas, the exhaust gas. Mercury (mainly zero-valent Hg) is oxidized with high efficiency, and this is taken into exhaust gas dust. The dust is separated and removed by a dust collector provided at the subsequent stage, and the mercury in the obtained dust is heated and wet-treated. In addition, almost all of it is recovered in the metal state, and the dust after the treatment is further reused including cement raw materials.

実施例
本発明による水銀含有排ガスからの水銀の回収方法は、排ガス中の水銀を酸化処理し、処理されたガスからダストを分離する水銀含有排ガスの処理工程と、分離されたダストから水銀を回収する水銀含有ダストの処理工程とからなる。
Example A method for recovering mercury from a mercury-containing exhaust gas according to the present invention includes a mercury-containing exhaust gas treatment process in which mercury in the exhaust gas is oxidized and dust is separated from the treated gas, and mercury is recovered from the separated dust. A process for treating mercury-containing dust.
始めに、排ガス処理工程について、説明をする。 First, the exhaust gas treatment process will be described.
排ガス処理工程において、まず、ダストと水銀を含む排ガスに塩化水素を吹き込む。塩化水素の濃度は、表１に示すように排ガスに対して２０ｐｐｍ以上、望ましくは３０〜４０ｐｐｍとすることが好ましい。この塩化水素の吹き込みで排ガス中の水銀の約６０％程度を酸化することができる。塩化水素が２０ｐｐｍ以下であれば十分な酸化効果は得られず、４０ｐｐｍを超えると一定量以上の酸化は生じず、機器への悪影響が生じ、供給ガスが無駄になる。 In the exhaust gas treatment process, first, hydrogen chloride is blown into the exhaust gas containing dust and mercury. As shown in Table 1, the concentration of hydrogen chloride is 20 ppm or more, preferably 30 to 40 ppm with respect to the exhaust gas. About 60% of mercury in the exhaust gas can be oxidized by blowing hydrogen chloride. If hydrogen chloride is 20 ppm or less, a sufficient oxidation effect cannot be obtained, and if it exceeds 40 ppm, a certain amount or more of oxidation does not occur, adversely affects the equipment, and the supply gas is wasted.
次いで、排ガスを反応器に導いて粉体状の触媒と接触させる。粉体状の触媒は平均粒径５０〜１００μｍのものを使用することが好ましい。平均粒径が５０μｍ以下であれば、酸化率は良好なものの、管路の閉塞や後流での分離工程で問題が起こりやすく、１００μｍ以上であれば水銀酸化効果が得られにくい。触媒の使用温度すなわち反応器における反応温度は、望ましくは３００〜４００℃、より望ましくは３５０℃付近である。反応温度が後述する表１に示すように３００℃以下であれば、触媒の水銀酸化効果が得られず、４００℃を越えると後流での機器類に影響が生じる恐れがある。 Next, the exhaust gas is led to the reactor and brought into contact with the powdered catalyst. It is preferable to use a powdery catalyst having an average particle diameter of 50 to 100 μm. If the average particle size is 50 μm or less, the oxidation rate is good, but problems are likely to occur in the blockage of the pipeline and the separation process in the downstream, and if it is 100 μm or more, the mercury oxidation effect is difficult to obtain. The use temperature of the catalyst, that is, the reaction temperature in the reactor, is preferably 300 to 400 ° C, more preferably around 350 ° C. If the reaction temperature is 300 ° C. or less as shown in Table 1 described later, the mercury oxidation effect of the catalyst cannot be obtained, and if it exceeds 400 ° C., there is a risk of affecting downstream equipment.
好ましい触媒は金属酸化物（ＴｉＯ２、Ａ１２Ｏ３、ＺｒＯ２、ＳｉＯ２、ＭｇＯ）を１種以上含む材料およびムライト（３Ａ１２Ｏ３・２ＳｉＯ２）、コーディエライト（２ＭｇＯ・２Ａｌ２Ｏ３・５ＳｉＯ２）、チタン酸アルミニウム（ＴｉＡｌ２Ｏ５）などの化合物を担体とし、その表面に１種以上の活性金属（Ｐｔ、Ｒｕ、Ｒｈ、Ｐｄ、ｌｒ、Ｖ、Ｗ、Ｍｏ、Ｎｉ、Ｃｏ、Ｆｅ、Ｃｒ、Ｃｕ、Ｍｎ）を担持したものである。
Preferred catalysts are metal oxides (TiO 2, A1 2 O 3 ,
次いで、反応後のガスを集塵機で３００℃以下の温度で集塵処理して、使用済み触媒とダストの混合物を排ガスから回収する。処理ガスは煙突を経て大気中へ放散される。 Next, the gas after the reaction is collected by a dust collector at a temperature of 300 ° C. or lower, and a mixture of the used catalyst and dust is recovered from the exhaust gas. The process gas is emitted into the atmosphere through a chimney.
次いで、回収ダストと使用済み触媒の混合物を分離機でダストと触媒に分離する。好ましい分離機は、ダストと触媒の粒径差を利用したサイクロン方式のものである。 Next, the mixture of recovered dust and spent catalyst is separated into dust and catalyst by a separator. A preferred separator is a cyclone type utilizing a particle size difference between dust and catalyst.
分離機で分離された触媒の少なくともの一部を触媒循環路を経て反応器へ循環する。 At least a part of the catalyst separated by the separator is circulated through the catalyst circulation path to the reactor.
分離機で分離されたダストと触媒の残部を後流のダスト処理装置に送る。一方、取り出した触媒の量で反応器の上流側で新しい触媒を補充する。これにより、水銀酸化処理性能を維持することができる。 The dust separated by the separator and the remainder of the catalyst are sent to a dust treatment device in the downstream. On the other hand, a new catalyst is replenished upstream of the reactor with the amount of catalyst taken out. Thereby, mercury oxidation treatment performance can be maintained.
表１は、ＳｉＯ２担体にＷＯ３、Ｖ２Ｏ５およびＴｉＯ２を担持した触媒について、反応温度と水銀酸化率の関係を示すものである。
つぎに、上記処理ガスから分離されたダストから水銀を回収する水銀含有ダストの処理工程について、説明をする。 Next, a process for treating mercury-containing dust for recovering mercury from dust separated from the processing gas will be described.
水銀含有ダストを前段加熱器に導いて３５０〜４００℃に加熱する。これによりダスト中に含まれる水分、水銀、ＶＯＣ（揮発性有機化合物）、アンモニウム塩などを循環ガス中に放出させる。図２は、実際のダストを用いた水銀の揮散性を調べた結果を示す。これによると、加熱温度が３５０℃以上であれば、ダスト中に存在する水銀のほぼ全量を揮散させることができる。前段加熱器を経たダストはさらに後段加熱器で加熱され、次いで冷却器で冷却されることで以降のハンドリングに支障のないようにされる。こうしてダスト処理により最終的に処理灰が得られ、セメント原料等への再利用が可能である。 The mercury-containing dust is guided to a pre-stage heater and heated to 350 to 400 ° C. As a result, moisture, mercury, VOC (volatile organic compound), ammonium salt and the like contained in the dust are released into the circulating gas. FIG. 2 shows the results of examining the volatility of mercury using actual dust. According to this, when the heating temperature is 350 ° C. or higher, almost all of the mercury present in the dust can be volatilized. The dust that has passed through the pre-stage heater is further heated by the post-stage heater and then cooled by the cooler so that the subsequent handling is not hindered. In this way, the treated ash is finally obtained by the dust treatment and can be reused as a cement raw material or the like.
一方、前段加熱器においてダストから放出された水分、水銀、ＶＯＣ（揮発性有機化合物）、アンモニウム塩などを含むガスは、ダストフィルタを経てスプレー塔さらにコンデンサへ送られる。ダストフィルタには圧縮空気を供給して同空気によってエレメントの逆洗を行う。この空気は循環ファンにより加熱器、ダストフィルタ、スプレー塔、コンデンサを循環し、前述の水銀、ＶＯＣ、アンモニアのキャリアガスとして作用する。 On the other hand, gas containing moisture, mercury, VOC (volatile organic compound), ammonium salt, etc. released from dust in the pre-stage heater is sent to the spray tower and further to the condenser through the dust filter. Compressed air is supplied to the dust filter and the elements are backwashed with the same air. This air circulates in a heater, dust filter, spray tower, and condenser by a circulation fan, and acts as a carrier gas for mercury, VOC, and ammonia.
スプレー塔を通過した循環ガスは水分飽和状態になっているので、後流のコンデンサにおいて温度低下に伴い凝縮水となる。従ってコンデンサで塩類析出による閉塞といった問題を生じることが全くない。 Since the circulating gas that has passed through the spray tower is saturated with water, it becomes condensed water as the temperature decreases in the downstream condenser. Therefore, there is no problem of clogging due to salt precipitation in the capacitor.
高度な水銀回収効率を得るためにはコンデンサは、図１に示すように、２段階で設置するのが望ましい。すなわち、ガスをまず前段コンデンサで冷却水により３０〜４０℃にまで間接冷却し、次いで後段コンデンサでチラー水により５〜１０℃まで間接冷却する。 In order to obtain high mercury recovery efficiency, it is desirable to install the capacitor in two stages as shown in FIG. That is, the gas is first indirectly cooled to 30 to 40 ° C. with cooling water in the first stage condenser, and then indirectly cooled to 5 to 10 ° C. with chiller water in the second stage condenser.
図３は水銀における蒸気圧と温度との関係を示したものである。この図において、１ｏｇＰ（Ｐ：水銀の蒸気圧）が−１より大きければ、揮散がし易いことが文献（例；日立造船技報、３７巻、３号）より知られている。つまり、１ｏｇＰが−１より小さければ、水銀は液体状態で安定である。よって、本発明における冷却温度であれば、高い効率で水銀を回収することができる。 FIG. 3 shows the relationship between the vapor pressure and temperature in mercury. In this figure, it is known from the literature (eg, Hitachi Zosen Technical Report, Vol. 37, No. 3) that if 1 ogP (P: vapor pressure of mercury) is larger than -1, volatilization is easy. That is, if 1 ogP is less than -1, mercury is stable in the liquid state. Therefore, mercury can be recovered with high efficiency at the cooling temperature in the present invention.
コンデンサで凝縮した水分および水銀やＶＯＣはドレンタンクに入る。ドレンタンクでは水銀が金属状態で沈降分離するので、これを回収する。スプレー塔ではドレンタンクの上澄水（以下ドレン水と称する）が循環しており、このドレン水が循環ガスと気・液接触して循環ガス中に含まれる水溶性のＨｇＣｌ２をドレン水中に吸収除去する。ＨｇＣｌ２はドレンタンク内に滞留する間に還元され、やがて金属状態で沈降分離する。ドレン水のｐＨをアルカリ剤の添加によって好ましくは８〜１２、より望ましくは９〜１１に調整すると、ドレン水に取り込んだＨｇＣｌ２の還元およびアンモニウム塩の分解に好都合である。ドレン水のｐＨは高くても不都合はないがアルカリ剤を無駄に消費して不経済である。 Moisture, mercury and VOC condensed by the condenser enter the drain tank. In the drain tank, mercury settles and separates in a metallic state and is collected. In the spray tower, the supernatant water of the drain tank (hereinafter referred to as drain water) circulates, and this drain water comes into gas-liquid contact with the circulating gas and absorbs the water-soluble HgCl 2 contained in the circulating gas into the drain water. Remove. HgCl 2 is reduced while it stays in the drain tank, and eventually settles and separates in a metallic state. Adjusting the pH of the drain water to preferably 8 to 12 and more desirably 9 to 11 by adding an alkaline agent is advantageous for the reduction of HgCl 2 taken into the drain water and the decomposition of the ammonium salt. Although there is no problem even if the pH of the drain water is high, it is uneconomical because the alkali agent is consumed wastefully.
