Abstract

A general analysis of chemical equilibria in a system consisting of the gaseous nitrogen monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, water vapor, carbon dioxide, oxygen, and the solid calcium hydroxide is carried out with respect to the equilibrium partial pressures of nitrogen oxides. The conditions are defined, under which the calcium hydroxide is transformed to the calcium carbonate. The corresponding equilibrium equations are derived for all nine regions of existence of described system. The results are illustrated graphically and discussed from the point of removing the nitrogen oxides from waste gases.
