Interaction of SO{sub x} and NO{sub x} with soot
- Univ. of Denver, CO (United States); and others
As part of a continuing study of the heterogeneous reactions of black carbon with gas phase oxidant species, the adsorption of low concentrations (30 - 2000 ppm) of so, and NO{sub 2} individually, together, and in the presence of other adsorbates have been studied by spectroscopic and microgravimetric techniques. Previous work in this study has revealed a dual path mechanism for the reaction of NO{sub 2}/N{sub 2}O{sub 4} with n-hexane soot over concentration range 9 ppm - 200 torr. (This soot has been used throughout these investigations as a model for fossil fuel-produced black carbon). Interaction of SO{sub 2} and carbon represent the most intensively studied of the heterogeneous systems containing carbon. An attempt to understand the molecular dynamics involved in the reactions of carbon in the presence of multiple reactants, such as SO{sub 2} and NO{sub 2}, underlies the present work.
