Systems and Methods to produce a lime hydrate sorbent composition formed of highly reactive lime hydrate (HRH) by adding compounds to the slaking water in a method that would produce a non-HRH, which will typically be a lime hydrate having citric acid reactivity as discussed above of more than ten seconds, to make the non-HRH an HRH, which is having a citric acid reactivity of less than or equal to ten seconds.

An ozonation-based method for producing a cementitious material comprises the steps of: (1) mixing a flue gas with an ozone-containing gas to form a mixed flue gas; and introducing the mixed flue gas into an absorption tower, where the mixed flue gas undergoes dry desulfurization and denitrification by reacting with a powdered desulfurizing and denitrificating agent and becomes a treated flue gas; (2) subjecting the treated flue gas to dust removal to generate by-products; and (3) uniformly mixing raw materials that comprise the first by-product, magnesium oxide, fly ash and an additive to give a cementitious material, wherein on the basis of 100 parts by weight of the cementitious material, the first by-product is 20-60 parts by weight, magnesium oxide is 16-33 parts by weight, the fly ash is 15-35 parts by weight, and the additive is 1-15 parts by weight.

The present disclosure provides a cementitious material and production method thereof. The method comprises steps of: (1) dry desulfurization and denitrification of a flue gas with a flue gas absorbent to give a by-product, wherein the flue gas absorbent comprises 10-23 parts by weight of a nano-sized metal oxide, 10-23 parts by weight of a micro-sized metal oxide, and 40-60 parts by weight of magnesium oxide, the nano-sized metal oxide being selected from one or more of the group consisting of SiO2, CaO, Fe2O3, Al2O3, CuO, V2O5 and MnO2, and the micro-sized metal oxide being selected from one or more of the group consisting of SiO2, CaO, Fe2O3, Al2O3, CuO, V2O5 and MnO2; and (2) uniformly mixing the by-product with magnesium oxide, an industrial solid waste and an additive to give the cementitious material.

Systems and methods for generating power using hydrogen fuel, such as derived from natural gas, are provided. Feed materials are introduced into a compact hydrogen generator to produce carbon dioxide, hydrogen gas and steam. Sorbent material within the compact hydrogen generator acts to absorb carbon dioxide, forming a used sorbent. Hydrogen gas and steam are separated from the used sorbent and passed to a power generator such as a hydrogen turbine to produce power. The used sorbent is introduced into a calciner and heated to desorb carbon dioxide and form a regenerated sorbent which can be recycled to the compact hydrogen generator.

A system for dispersing sorbents to treat or remove flue gas pollutants can include a dispersion device with a venturi having an inlet, a throat, and an outlet. A sorbent supply can provide sorbent material to the dispersion device. A flue gas duct carrying flue gas streams traveling through the flue gas duct can include a port for attachment of the dispersion device to the port. In operational use, the dispersion device may be attached to the duct such that ambient air is drawn into the dispersion device and through the venturi. The air moving through the dispersion device can interact with and disperse the sorbent material into the duct for treating pollutants.
