Abstract: There are provided a downcomer pipe that can achieve suppression of accumulation of deposits in use and simplification of operation when being installed into a partition wall, an installation member and a desulfurization apparatus. The downcomer pipe comprises a pipe-shaped member and an installation member for installing the pipe-shaped member into the partition wall. The installation member includes a pipe-shaped part whose inner wall is to be brought into contact with the outer wall of the pipe-shaped member and a protruding part arranged on the outer wall of the pipe-shaped part, the pipe-shaped part and the protruding part constituting an integrated member.

Abstract: A liquid film dust arrester is installed to face a gas flow containing dust and flowing out from a gas discharge pipe. The arrester includes a gas flow blocking unit arranged vis-à-vis the gas flow, a liquid dispersion unit having a dispersion section arranged at a position near the center of the gas flow blocking unit and upstream relative to the gas flow blocking unit as viewed in the flowing direction of the gas flow so as to face the gas flow blocking unit, a liquid ejection unit having an ejection port disposed vis-à-vis the dispersion section and configured to eject liquid from the ejection port, and a liquid film forming unit. The dispersion section comprises a smooth surface that causes the ejected liquid to flow and disperse on the smooth surface, and the liquid film is formed to face the gas flow flowing through the flow path.

Abstract: Provided is a desulfurization method for sulfur oxide gas that includes: bringing a first sulfur oxide gas into contact with a humidifying liquid to obtain a second gas; separating at least part of the humidifying liquid from the second gas to obtain a third gas; contacting the third gas with an alkaline agent-containing liquid and oxygen to remove sulfur oxide from the third gas; using the alkaline agent-containing liquid as the humidifying liquid to be brought into contact with the first gas in the humidifying liquid contact step; acquiring at least part of the humidifying liquid separated from the second gas; removing gas from the humidifying liquid; and recovering a by-product, the alkaline agent-containing liquid, and oxygen from the humidifying liquid from which the gas has been removed in the gas removal step, the by-product recovery step being performed only downstream of the humidifying liquid acquisition step.
