    With the aim of investigating the deposition of Au/Pd core-shell nanoparticles (NPs) on cathode materials to decrease charge transfer resistance, Au/Pd core-shell NPs were successfully synthesized and deposited on LiFePO4 coated with carbon (LiFePO4/C) using ultrasound irradiation. Transmission electron microscopy observation confirmed that dispersed Au/Pd NPs with an average particle size of 7.2 nm were deposited on LiFePO4/C. An X-ray diffraction measurement evidenced a peak shifting from 38.2° to 39.1° upon calcination at 400 °C in Ar atmosphere, which can be attributed to the phase transition of the Au/Pd NPs from core-shell to alloy.

  • 1-07 Dissolution Behavior of Mercury Contained in Gypsum Produced from Coal Fired-Power Plant

    UACIQUETE Dorcas Linda Ernesto, KATO Takahiro, OKAWA Hirokazu, SUGAWARA Katsuyasu

    Proceedings of Conference on Coal Science ( The Japan Institute of Energy )  58 ( 0 ) 14 - 15   2021.10

    <p>Elution test was carried out in gypsum samples produced from a coal fired power plant, in order to understand the dissolution behavior of mercury when these materials are exposed to rain water. Experiments were carried out in 3 kinds of gypsums, two formed in liquid-column absorber desulfurization equipment and one from the jet bubbling type desulfurization equipment. For the elution test, the conventional batch method and the semi-batch method (improved method) were applied. The results revealed that the dissolution behavior of mercury varied significantly with the testing method. Furthermore, dissolution of mercury increased with decreasing pH. Quantification of mercury in eluate carried out by AAS show that in the conventional method, the dissolved mercury is then adsorbed, on the other hand, in the improved method, this behavior is negligible and only dissolution is observed.</p>

  • 2-21 Release Behavior of Harmful Elements During Heat Treatments of CCA-treated Wood

    Proceedings of Conference on Coal Science ( The Japan Institute of Energy )  58 ( 0 ) 64 - 65   2021.10

    <p>Chromated copper arsenate–treated wood produced by injecting a solution containing sub–percent of chromium, copper, and arsenic (hereinafter referred to as CCA–treated wood) is one of the construction wastes. As fundamental research on the development of clean gasification process for biomass, pyrolysis (400–800°C) which is the initial stage of gasification and CO<sub>2</sub> gasification (1000°C, 0–60min) characteristics of CCA–treated wood were investigated. The release behavior of high volatile arsenic during pyrolysis and gasification of CCA–treated wood was followed. When the CCA–treated wood was pyrolyzed, the release of arsenic proceeded with increasing temperature and the release extent was 41% at 800°C. In the case of gasification, the release extent of arsenic increased with gasification time and 90% of the arsenic was released into gas phase within 60min. Furthermore, it was possible to suppress the release of arsenic by 800°C during pyrolysis by mixing organic sludge rich in iron and calcium with CCA–treated wood.</p>

  • 2-12 Removal of Phosphorus from Spent Denitration Catalyst

    Proceedings of Conference on Coal Science ( The Japan Institute of Energy )  57 ( 0 ) 42 - 43   2020.10

    <p>Adsorption of phosphorus on a denitration catalyst degrades the activity of the catalyst during long-term operation of coal-fired power plants. In order to remove phosphorus and to regenerate a spent catalyst from a real coal-fired power plant, leaching behavior with water and ammonium citrate solution was investigated and change of the catalytic activity was observed. When the catalyst was treated with ammonia citrate, 67% of phosphorus could be removed, and the activity was recovered by restoration of ammonia adsorption capacity. A part of phosphorus (29%) was removed by leaching with distilled water, whereas negligible change in activity was observed.</p>

    <p>In a series studies on development of an advanced desulfurizatio n and denit r o gen ation process of heavy hydrocarbon resources under mild conditions effect of coal type on removal behavior of sulfur and nitrogen was investigated for coal extracts by using imi dazolium type ionic liquid. Sulfur and nit rogen in the coal extracts were simultaneously removed during extraction by the ionic liquid. Nitrogen removal depends on the coal type and nitrogen in the coal extracts prepared from high rank coal was easily removed.</p>

  • 1-9 Analysis of mercury forms contained in unburned carbon

    Proceedings of Conference on Coal Science ( The Japan Institute of Energy )  56 ( 0 ) 18 - 19   2019.10

    <p>Mercury form analysis was carried out by using temperature programed desorption and cold vapor atomic absorption spectrometry. Model samples of mercury-adsorbed carbon were prepared using activated carbon and unburned carbon separated from coal fly ash. The mercury of adsorbed by unburned carbon (UC-Hg) and activated carbon (AC-Hg) showed different desorption temperature. The TPD curves of UC-Hg and AC-Hg were changed with concentration of mercury in the liquid during adsorption. Considering both forms of UC-Hg and AC-Hg, the quantitative analysis of various mercury forms in desulfurization gypsum can be achieved.</p>

    <p>An analysis was performed by combining the TPD and CVAAS to identify and quantify the mercury forms in the fly ash produced from a coal-fired power plant. The TPD curve of the model sample for each mercury compound showed a unique peak temperature, and the chemical form of mercury was identified by comparing the peak temperature with that of the fly ash. A linear combination of the TPD curve of each model sample was curve-fitted to that of the fly ash. The calculated results revealed that 45% of total mercury is C-Hg in the fly ash followed by HgO, HgS, HgSO<sub>4</sub>・2HgO, HgSO<sub>4</sub> with around 14%.</p>
