For the aqueous solution of Fe
2+-EDTA absorbs large amount of NO, it is very promising to use it for the reduction of NO in the flue gas.But when Fe
2+is oxidised to Fe
3+ by oxygen, the solution loses its ability to absorb NO.
An absorption flask installed pressure gauge was used to obtain the partial pressure of NO-NO absorption curve.A bubble tower was used toinvestigate the Fe
2+-EDTA oxida-tion and the NO absorption.The concentrations of Fe
2+were determined from the oxida-tion potentials measured by means of Pt electrode.
The amount of NO absorbed by Fe
2+-EDTA increases with the pressure of NO giving the1: 1 complex of NO: Fe
2+-EDTA.And it decreases as the temperature rises in the region of low NO pressure.The Fe
2+concentrations and the pH values (except pH 4) give little effect on the oxidation rate of Fe
2+ during the earlier parts of the reaction.But the rate increases in proportion to the O
2 concentration and the temperature.Surfactants that control bubbles, such as sorbitan monolaurate, sorbitan monooleate, 2-ethylhexyl alcohol and n-octyl alcohol restrain the oxidation of Fe
2+.Though the effect of those oxidation inhibitors are independent of the concentration of O
2, it becomes slightly significant as the temperature rises.
