carbon monoxide is a natural pollutant when present above normal concentration which is________ppmv.


______% comes from anthropogenic sources. it's a product from internal combustion controlled by______converters. ______is a sink for CO

0.1



catalytic


6 catalytic soil


soil

removal of carbon monoxide from atmosphere net reaction

CO + NO + 2OOH = CO2 + NO2 + 2OH

the net reaction for sulfur containing species in the atmosphere

2H2S + 3O2 = 2SO2 + 2H2O

oxidation number of H2S

-2

oxidation number of SO2

+ 4

what five factors affect SO2 reactions in the atmosphere

1 temperature


2 humidity


3 light intensity


4 atmospheric transport


5 particulate matter interactions

what is the oxidation state of h2 so4

+ 6

what three types of chemical reactions SO2 occur

photochemical reactions, direct chemical reactions, reaction on solid particulate matter

photochemical reactions of SO2 are _____and not______

direct significant

direct chemical reactions of SO2 react with_____& ______& ______

NOx hydrocarbons and water

SO2 reactions on solid particulate matter are_________ catalytic oxidation

heterogeneous

species capable of oxidizing SO2

oh, ooh, o, 03, h202, anything with oxygen

4 reactions of SO2 that forms inside water droplets

SO2 + H2O = H2SO3



SO2 + H2O2 = H2SO4



SO3 2- + O3 = SO4 2- + O2



SO2 +H2O +NH3 = NH4+ HSO3-

what is the main costly effect of SO2 pollution

results in H2O soluble rocks affects the structural integrity of buildings

the most preferred removal of SO2 uses dry sorbents what are the three

limestone CaCO3


lime CA (oh)2; MgO


soda ash na2 CO3

the two removal reaction using lime slurry scrubbing adaptation of SO2

caoh2 + SO2= CaSO3 + H2O (creates lots of waste)



CaSO3 + 1/2 O2 + 2 H2O = caso4 x 2 H2O (gypsum)

removal reaction of SO2 using limestone slurry scrubbing

CaCO3 + SO2 = Caso 3 + CO2

recovery systems are much more desirable what is the reaction of SO2 removal with syn gas

2 H2S + SO2 = 2H2O + 3S

n o x and other reactive inorganic and species are very important in the atmosphere because they form photochemical _____ production of ____ ______ and depletion of the stratospheric_____

smog


acid rain


ozone

the amount of n2o _____ with altitude in the stratosphere

decreases

NO and NO2 are very important in the atmosphere because at high concentrations and no2 ______ air quality. primary source of pollutant comes from________

deteriorates


combustion of fossil fuels

pan stands for and what is it responsible for in the atmosphere

peroxyacyl nitrates it is responsible for smog

no2 is very reactive it easily _______ and absorbs UV light and vist spectrum in the troposphere at _____ energies

photo dissociates


lower

acute exposure to no.2 can be fatal in concentrations above

150 ppmv

control of nox in the atmosphere can be done by 5 combustion modifications

1 reduction of flame temperature


2 low excess firing


3 wet scrubbing


4 selective non-catalytic reduction


5 selective catalytic reduction

reduction of flame temperature ________the exhaust gas

recirculates

low excess firing combustion of fossil fuels in stages ______ amount of excess Air at high temps and second burn out at ______ temps but a higher oxygen content

reaction produces no______


has _____ efficiency

ammonia or urea


waste


low 20 to 60%

catalytic _______of NO


rxn


NOx reduced by ______-_____% only if


catalyst is _______&______


decomposition


CH4 + 4NO = 2N2 + CO2 + H2O


80 TO 95


SUFFICIENT AND GOOD CONDITION
