11、ethod4.1 In thermogravimetric analysis,the mass of a sample ina controlled atmosphere is recorded repeatedly as a function oftemperature or time,or both.Macro thermogravimetric analy-sis(macro TGA)of flue gas desulfurization solids(FGD-Solids)uses a sample mass of approximately 1 g.In a typicalanaly
12、sis,the temperature is normally ramped from ambient toa specific temperature and held at that temperature for aprescribed length of time,and the correspondent specimenmass is repeatedly recorded by the instrument.4.2 FGD-Solids components:free moisture,gypsum,cal-cium sulfite hemihydrate,calcium hyd
13、roxide,calciumcarbonate,and ash are sequentially determined in a singlemulti-step heating program.The analysis of a particular com-ponent is complete when the specimen reaches a constant massor at the end of the step.4.3 Free Moisture is determined by measuring the massloss,caused by evaporating fre
