combustion Flashcards
cataltytic cracking
720 k
zeolite catalyst
why only comb structure
increase sa
makes sure all molecules have reacted etc.
pollutants
CO
Oxides of N
oxides of S
flue gas desulfuration
the process to remove sulfur gas by reacting so2 with cao to make caso4
sulfuric acid equation
S02(g) + 0.5 0 2(g) + H20(1) -+ H2S04(1)
Gypsum
Gypsum is a sa leable product as it is used to make builders’ plaster and
plasterboard.
calcium carbonate with so2
CaC03(S) + 0.5 02(g) + S02(g) -+ CaS04(S) + C02(g)
calcium oxide with so2
CaO(s) + 2H20(1) + S02 (g) + ~ 0 2-+ CaS04·2H20(s)
metals used in convertors
palladium rhodium and platnium
why ceramic
good at not conducting heat
global warming
increase green house gases
more absorb the infrared radiation
increase energy and heat
