TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated flue gas desulfurization (FGD) gypsum as a setting time retarder to replace the natural gypsuma in the production of Portland cement (CP II E-32).
Abstract: Flue gas desulfurization (FGD) gypsum was evaluated as a setting time retarder to replace the natural gypsum in the production of Portland cement (CP II E-32). The results of physical-chemistry and morphological characterization of both products showed a material of high purity, calcium sulfate dehydrate for natural gypsum, and higher percentages of bassanite (CaSO 4 ·0.6H 2 O) and hannebachite (CaSO 3 ·0.5H 2 O) with low concentrations of impurities for FGD gypsum. Based on the results, the FGD gypsum is a suitable alternative to replace natural gypsum. The setting time with FGD gypsum showed about 1 h delay compared with natural gypsum and its effect on compressive strength depend on composition of the mixtures, reaching a maximum value for the mixture of 1.4 wt% natural gypsum and 2.1 wt% FGD gypsum. According to the results of leaching and solubilization tests FGD gypsum residue was classified as a non-hazardous and non-inert.

TL;DR: In this article, the ozone-based low-temperature oxidation deNOx process was investigated, especially the N2O5 formation mechanism, and it was shown that the formation of nitrogen oxides was greatly influenced by the temperature and residence time.
Abstract: With advantage of the solubility improving from NO into a higher valence state of nitrogen oxides, especially N2O5, the ozone-based low-temperature oxidation deNOx process was investigated, especially the N2O5 formation mechanism. The temperature ranging from 60 to 150 °C and O3/NO ratios and residence time changing were investigated by a well-designed experiment. N2O5 was detected by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). A 24-step mechanism was also proposed, specially for describing the formation of N2O5. Results demonstrated that the formation of N2O5 was greatly influenced by the temperature and residence time. N2O5 could be formed at relatively low temperatures, such as 60–80 °C, within 3–5 s when O3/NO > 1.0. There was no N2O5 detected when the temperature was higher than 130 °C as a result of the decomposition of NO3. The proposed mechanism could give a good prediction of the experimental results with kinetic simulation. To speed up the N2O5 formation process and reduce the O3 dosage and ...
