1 Energy Technology & Innovation Initiative FACULTY OF ENGINEERING Mercury oxidation Alastair Clements 13/06/2012
2 Outline Introduction to mercury Mercury oxidation Oxidation modelling Summary Further work
3 Mercury Toxicity Methyl mercury ([HgCH 3 ] + ) forms in the environment. Potent neurotoxin; RfD = µg/kg per day. Bioaccumulates through the food web into lethal doses. Transport 6-18 months atmospheric lifetime. Global distribution from source. Corrosion Mercury forms amalgams with many metals, including aluminium. Alastair Clements Mercury oxidation 3/18
4 Mercury oxidation Elemental Hg thermodynamically favoured at high temperatures. Hg is volatile, relatively inert and has low solubility. Oxidised at moderate temperatures by halides. Oxidised to HgCl2 or HgBr 2. Mercuric halides are soluble and so can be captured. Alastair Clements Mercury oxidation 4/18
5 Relative abundance of Cl Chlorine Bromine 3500 Coal content (ppmw ) Bulgaria Ukraine Australia USA Canada Japan China South Africa UK [Vassilev et al. 2000] [Spears and Zheng 1999] Alastair Clements Mercury oxidation 5/18
6 Correlation of Hg 2+ and HCl Hg E (µg/dscm) / Hg T (ppmw ) Chlorine (ppm w ) [EPA 2011] Alastair Clements Mercury oxidation 6/18
7 Oxidation pathways Gas-phase Focus of early work. Unable to model in all situations. Paricle-bound Activated carbon and fly ash. Influenced by O/S/halogen species. Surface-catalysed Uncoated surface effects observed. Speculative mechanisms. Alastair Clements Mercury oxidation 7/18
8 Gas phase oxidation Widmer et al. mechanism: Hg + Cl + M HgCl + M (R 1) Hg + Cl 2 HgCl + Cl (R 2) Hg + HCl HgCl + H (R 3) Hg + HOCl HgCl + OH (R 4) HgCl + Cl + M HgCl 2 + M (R 5) HgCl + Cl 2 HgCl 2 + Cl (R 6) HgCl + HCl HgCl 2 + H (R 7) HgCl + HOCl HgCl 2 + OH (R 8) Reaction R 1-R 4 produce the unstable HgCl intermediate. Only R 1 can proceed at an appreciable rate. Reactions R 5-R 8 complete mercury oxidation and occur much faster. [Widmer et al. 2000] Alastair Clements Mercury oxidation 8/18
9 Oxidation levels 100 Percentage Hg oxidation HCl (400ppm) HCl (100ppm) HBr (25ppm) HBr (50ppm) + HCl (100ppm) HBr (50ppm) HBr (25ppm) + HCl (400ppm) HBr (50ppm) + HCl (400ppm) HCl (100ppm) HCl (400ppm) HBr (50ppm) HBr (25ppm) HBr (25ppm) + HCl (100ppm) Air firing Oxy-firing [Buitrago 2011] Alastair Clements Mercury oxidation 9/18

14 Summary Mercury oxidation chemistry has proven challenging for modellers. Existing gas-phase oxidation models have failed to be validated across datasets. Experimental data only covers the atomic recombination reactions. Not all potential gas-phase pathways have been fully investigated. Work has also started on identifying surface-catalysed and particle-bound mechanisms. Alastair Clements Mercury oxidation 14/18
15 Further work Continue to improve and validate current model. Measure reaction rates under flue gas temperatures. Using flash photolysis and adsorption spectroscopy. Analyse and integrate models for heterogeneous reactions. Alastair Clements Mercury oxidation 15/18
