Besides, LNG's proportion is also increasing. ・Domestic and Chinese MgO for FGD in part of coal-fired power generation (small & medium- sized )plants is around 10% share of total power generation.

Electric energy(MW) Power plant with FGD equipment(in China) Coal-fired Power Plants emit over 40% of China’s SO2 pollutants. SO2 emission standard 50・100mg/m3 for new power plant (China as from 2012) 200mg/m3 (EU, Japan) 160mg/m3(USA) Source:The McIlvaine Company In 2012, most FGD equipment use limestone gypsum method. (About 0.03% wet desulfurization by magnesium) Problems of By-produced Gypsum 【Mechanism of Desulfurization by Limestone Gypsum Method】 ・SO2+CaCO3+1/2H2O→CaSO3・1/2H2O+CO2 ・CaSO3・1/2H2O+1/2O2+3/2H2O→CaSO4・H2O As FGD equipment of limestone gypsum method increases, coal ash and gypsum are produced much as byproducts. ⇒ It is becoming an amount that can not be handled even in China. 【Mechanism of desulfurization by water mag method】 ・SO2+H2O→H2SO3+Mg(OH) 2→MgSO3+2H2O ・MgSO3+H2O+SO2→Mg(HSO3) 2 +Mg(OH)2 →2MgSO3+2H2O2MgSO3+O2→2MgSO4 Magnesium sulfate after desulfurization by magnesium is highly soluble in water. In Japan, coal ash is recycled as cement raw materials and partly utilized as fertilizer raw material by adding magnesia to immobilize toxic heavy metals. ☆In future, due to the problem of gypsum disposal, there is a possibility that water mag desulfurization method using CCM from China increases partly in place of limestone gypsum method. Summary of FGD Application ・Until 2020, demand for FGD in Japan is expected to increase due to the construction of small- and medium-sized coal- fired power plants. However, from a medium- to long-term perspective, the FGD field is declining from the viewpoint of CO2 emissions. ・Chinese FGD situation 1)More increased environmental regulation in China, more increased demand for FGD. 2)Gypsum is produced too much to be handled even in China. 3)Magnesium method desulfurization equipment could be more introduced in China. 2)Post FGD Market Market Application Development to Environmental Field Magnesium hydroxide Mg(OH)2 Magnesium oxide MgO 【Improvement of water quality 【Earth pavement】 / sediment quality】 Improvement of sediment quality in fishery farm A promenade Water Quality and Bottom Quality Improvement 14 Application - Hydrogen Sulfide Countermeasure - Mag System Improving Agent Used for suppression of hydrogen sulfide and sludge purification of sediment.

It will be muddy if it rains! The asphalt pavement looks a bit ... Median strip Paving work using MgO Park Promenade By applying construction with MgO, we can take pavement and weed control measures that make use of the texture of the soil. Summary of Post FGD Applications ・As the post FGD markets, water and soil environment applications by utilizing magnesia seeds would be promising. ・The ETV project would be expanded to overseas for securing sea resources. ・Besides, we have been developing following applications: industrial waste recycle, bio mass electricity, preserving sea ecological system, water front restoration, sewage etc. Fine Material Division Yoshihiro Nishimura New Applications by making Use of Magnesia Seeds 1.
