"A new composite adsorbent of sodium humate (HNa)=alpha-aluminium oxide (alpha-Al2O3) for flue gas desulfurization (FGD) was prepared using the impregnation method. Both the adsorbent of alpha-Al2O3 and HNa=alpha-Al2O3 were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive Xray spectrometer (EDS), and scanning electron microscope (SEM)," scientists in Shanghai, People's Republic of China report.
"Desulfurization activity of the adsorbent impregnated with ammonia (NH4OH) was investigated in a fixed-bed quartz reactor. Experimental results indicate that HNa, which coats the alpha-Al2O3 fibers impregnated ...
