PROCESSES FOR REMOVING SOx AND SULFURIC ACID AEROSOLS FROM CHLORINE-CONTAINING PROCESS GASES

摘要

Processes comprising: providing a gas comprising chlorine and at least one sulfur-containing component; and countercurrently contacting the gas with circulating chlorine-containing water in a column such that the at least one sulfur-containing component is oxidized with chlorine in the chlorine-containing water to form sulfate and chloride and a portion of the chlorine from the gas is absorbed by the water to an equilibrium.
