Sulfur dioxide is believed to be a major precursor of acid rains, therefore the control of sulfur dioxide emissions is a signifi- cant subject for research and development, as well as industrial implementation [1]. Many adsorbents were investigated for sulfur dioxide adsorption like carbonaceous adsorbents [2-4], metallic oxide sorbents of transition metals [5] or molecular sieves [6-7]. Process of sulfur di- oxide adsorption has been studied extensively. The products of surface reactions were analyzed from the point of view of removal efficiency and the fea- sibility of regeneration.

Pratim Biswas and Tim C. Keener Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, Ohio 45221 -0071 The removal of SO2 by NH3 gas injection at various temperatures and moisture contents has been studied experimentally. The product compositions of the NH3-SO2-HzO vapor reactions were also reported. A thermodynamic analysis was carried out to predict the SO2 removal as well as the product compositions. Both the experimental results and thermodynamic analysis indicated that SO2 removal and the product compositions are sensitive to the reaction temperature. Moisture content, once in large excess of the stoichiometric requirement, does not have a strong effect on the product compositions but plays an important role in the SO2 removal.

  • Electronic Structure, Stability, and Cooperativity of Chalcogen Bonding in Sulfur Dioxide and Hydrated Sulfur Dioxide Clusters
    Electronic structure, stability, and cooperativity of chalcogen bonding in sulfur dioxide and hydrated sulfur dioxide clusters: a DFT study and wave functional analysis Venkataramanan Natarajan Sathiyamoorthy ( [email protected] ) SHARP Substratum https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6228-0894 Research Article Keywords: Chalcogen bond, Hydrogen bond, Non-covalent interactions, QTAIM, Cooperativity Posted Date: July 7th, 2021 DOI: https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.rs-665149/v1 License: This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. Read Full License Page 1/28 Abstract Density functional theory calculations and wave functional analysis are used to examine the (SO2)n and (SO2)n–H2O clusters with n = 1–7. The nature of interactions is explored by molecular electrostatic potentials, electron density distribution, atoms in molecules, noncovalent interaction, and energy decomposition analysis. The putative global minimum of SO2 molecules has a 3D growth pattern with tetrahedral. In the hydrated SO2 clusters, the pure hydrogen bond isomers are less stable than the O···S chalcogen bond isomers. The cluster absorption energy of SO2 on water increases with the size of sulfur dioxide, implying reactivity of sulfur dioxide with water increases with size. The presence of cooperativity was evident from the excellent linearity plot of binding energy/polarizability vs the number of SO2 molecules. Molecular electrostatic potential analysis elucidates the reason for the facile formation of S···O chalcogen than hydrogen bonding in hydrated sulfur dioxide. Atoms in molecule analysis characterize the bonds chalcogen and H bonds to be weak and electrostatic dominant. EDA analysis shows electrostatic interaction is dominated in complexes with more intermolecular chalcogen bonding and orbital interaction for systems with intermolecular H-bonding.
