How can reducing sulfur content in fuel reduce acidic gas emission?
Wiki User
∙ 15y ago
reducing the sulphur content in fuels will effectivily reduce the amount of sulphur realised into the atmosphere. In the gas phase sulphur dioxide is oxidised by reaction with the hydroxyl radical via an intermolecular reaction: SO2 + OH· → HOSO2· which is followed by: HOSO2· + O2 → HO2· + SO3 In the presence of water, sulphur trioxide (SO3) is converted rapidly to sulphuric acid: SO3(g) + H2O(l) → H2SO4(l) the lower the sulphur released into the atmosphere the lower the amount of sulphuric acid is formed

Reducing sulfur content in fuel can reduce acidic gas emissions by lowering the amount of sulfur dioxide released during combustion. Sulfur dioxide reacts with water vapor in the atmosphere to form sulfuric acid, which contributes to acid rain. Lowering sulfur content in fuel minimizes the formation of sulfur dioxide and subsequently reduces the acidic gas emissions.

* Autovehicles: use of fuels with a low concentration of sulphur (desulfurized fuels)
* Chemistry and Metallurgy, processing of minerals as sulphides: recovering the sulphur as sulphuric acid
* Other industries: observation of the correct working procedures

SO2 + 2 H2S = 3 S + 2 H2O
2. The reduction of sulfur dioxide emission is another problem.

Is feso4 reducing agent?
Yes, FeSO4 (iron (II) sulfate) is a reducing agent. In redox reactions, it can undergo oxidation itself to reduce another substance.
Why do factories line their chimneys with limestone?
Factories might line their chimneys with limestone to help neutralize acidic gases released during combustion, reducing air pollution. Limestone can also capture some pollutants and prevent them from being released into the atmosphere.
What structural groups do all reducing sugars have in common?
All reducing sugars have a free aldehyde or ketone functional group, which allows them to reduce other substances by donating electrons. This functionality is essential for the reducing properties of these sugars.
Is toilet paper acidic?
Toilet paper is generally slightly acidic, with a pH around 5.5 to 6.5. This mild acidity helps maintain the skin's natural pH balance and reduce irritation.
Does vinegar lower alkalinity?
Yes, vinegar is acidic and can lower the alkalinity of a solution. When added to water, vinegar can help reduce the alkalinity levels, making it more acidic.
Which type of reducing agents are used to reduce gold and silver?
highly acidic.
What are weight loss diets designed to do?
They are designed to reduce body weight through reducing body fat content.
How Euro1 and euro 2 norms work towards reducing air pollution?
They Reduce THE Emission of Carbon Dioxide, Nitrous Oxide and Hydro Carbons which are harmful to the Environment

Will cooking onions reduce their acid content?
Heating acids degrades them which reduces the amount of acid content when it breaks the acids down. So by cooking onions you are in essence reducing the acidic content, but you are also concentrating other flavors. On a side note, if you are referring to reducing the eye irritation when cutting or bruising onions then that is a little different. Onions contain sulfuric compounds that produce sulfuric acid when they waft in the air and make contact with the water in your eye. The sulfuric acid burns your eye and your tear ducts release tears to try and wash it out or dilute it enough to stop the burning sensation.
Which food increases esr levels?
Diet which has acidic content can increase ESR levels. Dried ginger along with aamla powder are good antioxidants and reduce esr levels.
What does reducing mass and friction improve on a co2 car?
Reducing mass and friction in a CO2 car can improve its overall speed and performance. With less mass to accelerate, the car can move more quickly, while reduced friction allows it to maintain momentum and travel farther. Both of these factors can help optimize the car's efficiency and competitiveness in a race.
What is the purpose of an exhaust emission system?
to help reduce air pollution

What will reduce strong alkalinity without drastically increasing PH in pools?
pH and Alkalinity/Acidity are functions of each other. pH's above 7.0 are considered alkaline and pH's below 7.0 are considered acidic. So reducing the alkalinity will by it's very nature reduce the pH of the pool.
