The reduction of calcium sulfate to produce calcium sulfide is a part of the cyclic process for converting sulfur dioxide
to elemental sulfur that is described in Part I. The kinetics of the hydrogen reduction of nickel-catalyzed calcium-sulfate
pellets were investigated using a thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) technique at reaction temperatures between 1023 and 1088
K and hydrogen partial pressures between 12.9 and 86.1 kPa. The reactivity of nickel-catalyzed calcium-sulfate pellets was
demonstrated by the conversion of 70 pct fresh nickel-catalyzed calcium sulfate to calcium sulfide in 20 minutes at 1073 K
under a hydrogen partial pressure of 86.1 kPa. Furthermore, the reactivity remained relatively intact after ten cycles of
reactions and regenerations. This observed characteristic of the pellets is important because the solids must be reusable
for repeated cycles to avoid generating secondary pollutants. The nucleation and growth rate expression was found to be useful
in describing the kinetics of the reaction, which had an activation energy of about 167 kJ/mol (∼40 kcal/mol) in all reaction
cycles except for the first regenerated samples that were lower at 146 kJ/mol (35 kcal/mol). The reaction order with respect
to hydrogen partial pressure was 0.22 in all cycles with the exception of the first regenerated sample for which it was 0.37. 相似文献
