    Abstract

    In this work ab initio molecular orbital methods were employed to study the coal combustion reaction mechanisms of tin oxidized by different oxidants, including HOCl, HC1, ClO, ClO2, NO3 CO2and O2. Eleven reaction pathways were identified. The results show that Sn can react with HCl, ClOO, CO2, O2, and NO3 to form SnO and SnCl. SnO can be oxidized into SnCl by HOC1 and HCl. SnCl can be further oxidized into a soluble compound, SnCl2. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
