Twodistinctreductionmethods • Controloverthereactionthatproducesthepollutant. (3T) • Removal of thepollutantafteritsformation
CombustioncontrolmethodsforNOxfromStationarySources • Effect of excessair • Effect of combustionairtemperature • Effect of combustion-zonecooling • Effect of furnace-burnerconfiguration • Fluegasrecirculation • Two-stageorOff-stochiometriccombustion • Status of combustionmodificationtechniques
Effect of CombustionAirTemperature • Wasteheat is avaliabletohelppreheatairentering a combustionprocess. Theaddedgasincreasestheflametemperature. Thus, NOxemissionsincrease. • Significantformationoccursfrom 200 0C to 300 0C pre-heat (as 3-fold)
Flue-GasRecirculation • A portion of cooledfluegas is injectedbackintothecombustionzone. • Overallcombustiontemperature is reduced. • Additionally O2amount is reduced. • Givestheoperator an additional element of control • Inamounts of upto 25 %, therecirculatedgasnegligibleeffect on flamedevelopment.
Two-Stage of Off-StochiometricCombustion • Fuelandairareburntnearstochiometricconditions. • Firstfuel-richfeed • Secondfuel-leanfeed
Flue-GasControlMethodsforNOx SelectiveCataliticReduction • Optimum reductionoccurred 300 to 400 0C • Platinum (Pt) orPalladium (Pd) optimum operationtemperature 175-290 0C • VnO5or TiO2 optimum operationtemperature 260-450 0C • 75 to 90 % removalefficiency is possible
Ureaorammoniabasedchemicalareinjected • 900 to 1100 0C is neededforreaction • Catalyst is eliminated • 20 to 60 % reduction is possible • SelectiveNon-CataliticReduction
Example : 50 ppm NO is goingto be reducedto 10 ppm. Determinethe NH3amountneededfor a planthavingflowrate of 10 Nm3/sec
