A desulfurization pump is a type of centrifugal pump specifically used to handle the sulfur dioxide flue gas produced during the combustion of fossil fuels. For example, in steel plants, coal-fired power plants, and coking plants, a large amount of flue gas containing sulfur dioxide is produced during the production process.
The flue gas generated from the combustion of fossil fuels is sprayed with a mixture of water and limestone in the flue gas absorption tower, causing a chemical reaction between the sulfur dioxide and the alkaline limestone slurry, thereby removing the sulfur dioxide from the flue gas and generating gypsum slurry. After dehydration, the gypsum slurry can be used as a good building material. Apart from limestone, other chemical substances can also be used as absorbents for flue gas desulfurization.
The desulfurization process of flue gas is basically a neutralization chemical reaction. The resulting slurry is corrosive and contains solid particles. Therefore, desulfurization slurry pumps must have corrosion resistance and wear resistance. Materials commonly used in the production of desulfurization pumps include cast iron, and corrosion-resistant alloys, and the impellers are made of duplex stainless steel or high-chromium martensitic cast iron.
