NOx Reduction in a Gas Fired Utility Boiler by Combustion Modifications

Data on the effect of several combustion modifications on the formation of nitrogen oxides and on boiler efficiency were acquired and analyzed for a 110 MW gas fired utility boiler. The results from the study showed that decreasing the oxygen in the flue gas from 2.2% to 0.6% reduced the NO_x formation by 33% and also gave better boiler efficiencies. Flue gas recirculation through the bottom of the firebox was found to be ineffective. Staged combustion was found to reduce the NO_x emissions by as much as 55 % while decreasing the efficiency by about 5%. Adjustment of the burner air registers reduced the NO_x formation by about 20 ppm. The lowest NO_x emissions of 42 ppm (at about 3% O₂) in the stack was obtained for air only to one top burner and 0.5% oxygen in the flue gas.     

Identification and Control of NOx Emissions Using Neural Networks

ABSTRACT

We investigate the application of two classes of artificial neural networks for the identification and control of discrete-time nonlinear dynamical systems. A fully connected recurrent network is used for process identification, and a multilayer feedforward network is used for process control. The two neural networks are arranged in series for closed-loop control of oxides of nitrogen (NO_x) emissions of a simplified representation of a dynamical system. Plant data from one of Commonwealth Edison's coal-fired power plants are used for testing the approach, with initial results indicating that the method is feasible. However, further work is required to determine whether the method remains feasible as the number of state variables and control variables are increased.     

Formation of Oxides of Nitrogen in Pulverized Coal Combustion

Nitrogen oxides are a potential atmospheric pollutant. Their formation and decomposition were studied in an experimental pulverized-coal-fired furnace. The concentration of nitrogen oxides (NO_x) was a maximum in the combustion zone and decreased as the combustion gas cooled. At a coal burning rate of 2 Ib/hr and 22% excess air, reduction of nitrogen oxides was obtained by selective secondary-air distribution. With 105% cf the stoichiometric air fed to the coal-combustion zone and 17% additional air fed just beyond the flame front, 62% reduction of NO_x occurred with good combustion efficiency. Lowering the quantity of excess air lowered the NO_x concentration, but at the expense of combustion efficiency. When 22% excess air was fed to the primary combustion zone, NO_x concentration in the effluent was 550 ppm and carbon in the fly ash 2.0%. With 5% excess air, the NO_x concentration fell to 210 ppm and carbon in the fly ash rose to 13.8%. With stoichiometric combustion the NO_x was 105 ppm a reduction of 81 %, and the carbon was 42.3%. Recirculation of combustion gas was not an effective means of lowering NO_x formation.     

Mechanism of Peroxyacetyl Nitrate Formation

It is proposed that peroxyacetyl nitrate and its homologues are formed in polluted air by a reaction between acylate (or aroylate) radicals and nitrogen trioxide. The proposed reaction accounts for the delayed formation of peroxyacetyl nitrate upon the irradiation of low concentrations of hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides in air. It also explains why peroxyacetyl nitrate is not formed in photooxidations at high reactant concentrations. It accounts for the formation of peroxyacetyl nitrate in the dark reaction of acetaldehyde, oxygen, and N₂O₅; and, finally, it explains the inhibiting effect that excess NO₂ has on that dark reaction. The proposed reaction could yield either the accepted peroxyacetyl nitrate molecular structure or a molecular structure called acetyl pernitrate that does not include an oxygen-oxygen bond. The chemical properties of the molecule can be reconciled with either formulation.     

Effect of NOx Control Processes on Mercury Speciation in Utility Flue Gas

Abstract

The speciation of Hg in coal-fired flue gas can be important in determining the ultimate Hg emissions as well as potential control options for the utility. The effects of NO_x control processes, such as selective catalytic reduction (SCR) and selective non-catalytic reduction (SNCR), on Hg speciation are not well understood but may impact emissions of Hg. EPRI has investigated the reactions of Hg in flue gas at conditions expected for some NO_x control processes. This paper describes the methodology used to investigate these reactions in actual flue gas at several power plants. Results have indicated that some commercial SCR catalysts are capable of oxidizing elemental Hg in flue gas obtained from the inlets of SCR or air heater units. Results are affected by various flue gas and operating parameters. The effect of flue gas composition, including the presence of NH₃, has been evaluated. The influence of NH₃ on fly ash Hg reactions also is being investigated.

Soot Control During the Combustion of Polystyrene

This paper describes an experimental study on the control of soot formation during the combustion of polystyrene (PS). A stable, twodimensional flame generated by using a Wolfhard-Parker type diffusion flame burner was used to simulate practical combustion situations. The combustion characteristics, effects of operating conditions on soot formation, and the effectiveness of various metallic additives as soot suppressants were investigated. It was found that soot yield could not be significantly reduced by controlling the oxidizer (air) flow rate. Increasing the O₂ mole fraction of the oxidlzer increased soot yield under typical operating conditions. However, soot yield could be greatly reduced by adding small amounts of air into the pyrolysis zone of the flame. The additional air would probably increase the combustion reaction rate while decreasing the soot precursor formation rate, thereby causing the observed effect. It was thus suggested that effective soot control could be accomplished by improving mixing between air and the PS devolatilizatlon products In practical combustion situations. The metallic additives tested in this study were the salts of Na, K, Ca, and Ba. Among these salts, Ca was the least effective in reducing soot, and K and Na were nearly equally effective. Ba was much more effective than all the others, and Its effectiveness was strongly dependent on its addition rate.
