A Comprehensive Kinetic Model for Sulfur Reactions in Combustion, Gasification, and Chemical Processing

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Sulfur chemistry in high temperature processes is poorly understood, leading to uncertainties in the design of these processes and in the control of their emissions. In particular, new approaches to lowering greenhouse emissions which depend on the combustion and gasification of coal, biomass, or refuse-derived fuel, such as integrated gasification combined cycle processes, are especially affected by these uncertainties. This project seeks to combine experimental measurements and quantum chemical modelling to produce a detailed mechanistic model for the reactions of sulfur in high-temperature systems. Such a model will provide designers with a tool to optimise these complex interacting systems.
