The vast majority of the research and development stretching back over twenty years was about large scale industrial burners and complex mechanisms which, in the end, did not produce what one would consider low NO x (2 ng/J or ~ 4 ppm at 0% O 2 on dry basis). [2] In fact at that time, 15 ng/J NO 2 appears to have been considered low NO 2.
One form of fuel staged combustion is the procedure known as burner out of service (BOOS). [4] The technique involves shutting off the fuel flow from one burner or more to create fuel-rich and fuel-lean zones, achieving some NO x emission control (10%). The technique is not widely used in pulverized coal-fired plants (2 units, 350 MW e).
The amount of NOx produced depends on the combustion temperature. [2] When the combustion takes place at a lower temperature the NOx emissions are reduced. [ 2 ] Gas turbines with DLE technology were developed to achieve lower emissions without using water or steam to reduce combustion temperature (Wet Low Emission (WLE) technology).
EGR valve the top of box on top of the inlet manifold of a Saab H engine in a 1987 Saab 90. In internal combustion engines, exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) is a nitrogen oxide (NO x) emissions reduction technique used in petrol/gasoline, diesel engines and some hydrogen engines. [1]
Lean-burn refers to the burning of fuel with an excess of air in an internal combustion engine.In lean-burn engines the air–fuel ratio may be as lean as 65:1 (by mass). ). The air:fuel ratio needed to stoichiometrically combust gasoline, by contrast, is 14.
This usually means that the evaporator section of the HRSG will have to be split and the SCR placed in between the two sections. Some low-temperature NOx catalysts have recently come to market that allow for the SCR to be placed between the evaporator and economizer sections (350–500 °F [177–260 °C]). [1] Packaged HRSG
Methane is a greenhouse gas and, when oxidized via thermal combustion, is chemically altered to form CO 2 and H 2 O. CO 2 is 25 times less potent than methane when emitted into the atmosphere with regards to global warming. Concentrations of methane in mine ventilation exhaust air of coal and trona mines are very dilute; typically below 1% and ...
Propane burner with a Bunsen flame Oxy-Acetylene for cutting through steel rails Flame of a gas and oil, in a dual burner. A gas burner is a device that produces a non-controlled flame by mixing a fuel gas such as acetylene, natural gas, or propane with an oxidizer such as the ambient air or supplied oxygen, and allowing for ignition and ...
