The chloride content in the slurry of the desulfurization unit is relatively high

Thread Content

I would like to ask the experts: in the catalytic flue gas desulfurization unit, which uses wet desulfurization, I have recently noticed that the chloride content in the slurry is relatively high, at around 450 mg/l, while the acceptable limit is 500 mg/l; The desulfurization unit uses fresh water and the drain water from the drum as cooling media ; Washing liquid is ammonia-injected, with a concentration of about 20% ; The cooling media include: drum condensate water at a flow rate of 17 t/h with chloride levels of 30 mg/l; fresh water at a flow rate of 10 t/h with chloride levels of 160 mg/l; and wastewater discharged at a flow rate of 20 t/h. The evaporation rate is approximately 8 t/h ; Under the above operating conditions, is the chloride content within normal limits? ; What is the level of other devices? Consult the design institute; it’s best to keep the feedback within 200 characters ; My installation isn’t capable of handling it, and it’s also not possible to use demineralized water – the cost is too high. What mainly causes chlorides? Besides cooling water, is there any relation to flue gas? I hope the experts here can share their insights and advice

Hello, based on the information you provided, the chloride content in the slurry of the desulfurization unit is currently quite high, at around 450 mg/l, while the specified limit is 500 mg/l. Based on industry experience, the increase in chloride content is mainly attributed to the cooling water. It is recommended that you test the cooling water to rule out the possibility of excessively high chloride content. Additionally, you may consider switching to another source of cooling water or sharing and treating the cooling water with other companies. Furthermore, you mentioned that 20% ammonia solution is used for the washing fluid reinjection; strict control is also needed to ensure that the chloride ion content in this reinjection fluid does not exceed the allowed limits. If the above methods fail to reduce the chloride content, it is recommended that you seek more professional technical support, such as consulting a specialized design firm or relevant technical service company, in order to find more effective solutions. .
