To effectively solve the problem of reutilizing semi-dry sintering flue gas desulfurized ash (SSFGDA) from steel plants, a new technology is proposed in this paper in which ash is added to a boiling furnace to obtain SO2during sulfuric acid production. Using thermodynamics and simulation calculations, the high-temperature characteristics of CaSO3in the ash were preliminarily investigated. By using Kissinger method and the models of Achar and Coats-Redfer, the decomposition kinetics equation of CaSO3in the ash were obtained. The decomposition characteristics of CaSO3in the ash were further investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and drop tube furnace (DTF) experiments. The results show that at temperatures below 400 °C, free water is lost and Ca(OH)2decomposes, whereas at approximately 460 °C, part of the CaSO3is oxidized. Above 680 °C, CaCO3begins to decompose, with the decomposition process terminating at 790 °C. The remaining CaSO3continues to decompose at approximately 810 °C. The activation energy of CaSO3decomposition is 261.45 ± 77.93 kJ/mol; the pre-exponential factor is expressed as ln(A/s−1) = 26.13 ± 7.29, and the kinetics equation is dα/dt= 2.19 × 1011× exp(−3.11 × 104/T). Pressure, temperature and oxygen content are the key factors affecting the decomposition of CaSO3in the ash. A lower pressure and oxygen content and a higher temperature can facilitate the decomposition of CaSO3and can be achieved in actual sulfuric acid processing plants. Therefore, in this study, the feasibility of preparing SO2by adding desulfurized ash during the production of sulfuric acid using a boiling furnace was preliminarily examined and verified.
