Abstract:Due to the complicated working conditions for commercial SCR catalysts applied in bio-fuel plants, they must meet the poisoning and deactivation problems during the process of industrial operation. Therefore, their activation recovery with viable online maintenance solutions will have a great commercial potential. In order to identify the feasibility of the foam cleaning technology on the on-line maintenance of deactivated commercial SCR catalysts, a series of techniques, including SEM, EDS, XRD, BET and XPS, were used to characterize the deactivated commercial SCR catalysts before and after on-line maintenance. The optimum concentration parameters of cleaning solution for on-line maintenance were also investigated. The results showed that the optimum on-line maintenance effect happened at the dilute sulfuric acid concentration of 0.4 mg·L-1, the mass concentration for microporous permeate of 2%, and the mass concentration for active additive of 3%. After on-line maintenance, the agglomeration and alkali poisoning of the catalysts were significantly alleviated. The surface acidic sites and oxidation property of catalyst were enhanced, which contributed to the activity recovery of deactivated catalyst. The optimum denitration efficiency reached up to 92%, which showed a good industrial application potential. Key words:denitrification/ SCR catalyst/ on-line maintenance/ optimal conditions.
