the second phase. In the fourth phase, the simulated flue gas components were
turned off one by one as follows: H 2 O/HCl, NO, NO 2 , SO 2 , O 2 , and CO 2 .
In the process of changing the gas components, the total simulated flue gas flow
was maintained at 1266 ml/min. The influence of the simulated flue gas compo-
nents on mercury speciation is shown in Fig. 5.24. The horizontal axis showed the
experiment time in h:m:s. There were four ordinate axes, namely, A, B, C, and D.
The A axis showed the mercury concentration in simulated flue gas in g/(Nm 3 );
the B axis showed the O 2 and CO 2 concentrations in simulated flue gas as a per-
centage; the C axis showed the NO and NO 2 concentration in simulated flue gas in
ppm; and the D axis showed the SO 2 concentration in simulated flue gas in ppm.
The water and HCl concentrations were adjusted to 10% and 50 ppm, respectively,
based on standard gas.

Fig. 5.24 Influence of simulating flue gas components on mercury speciation
Approximately 14% of Hg 0 was oxidized to Hg 2+ with the action of the simu-
lated flue gas components (Fig. 5.24). However, AC had a good adsorption capa-
bility for Hg 0 (the initial adsorption efficiency was about 80%, as shown in
