Air pollution has been drawing increasing attention throughout the world. SO2, mainly emitted from fossil-fuel combustion, is one of major air pollutants. Up to now, flue-gas desulfurization (FGD) is one of the most effective techniques to control emissions of SO2 from the combustion of fossil fuels, such as coal and petrol. A variety of processes for SO2 control, such as wet FGD, dry FGD, and semidry FGD processes, have been commercially widely adopted.[1] However, these methods require a large amount of water and further treatment of the resultant wastewater is also needed, or they produce by-products such as calcium sulfate. Recently, dry and catalytic methods for SO2 removal have attracted much interest due to their economic benefits,[2] and copper on alumina (CuO/Al2O3) catalyst sorbent is usually used. However, this method has some disadvantages, for example, the dust in the flue stream can deposit onto the sorbent and cause plugging, which affects the desulfurization efficiency, and in a fixed-bed operation, a large volume of pellets can cause high flow resistance.[3]
