500 MW demonstration of advanced wall-fired combustion techniques for the reduction of nitrogen oxide emissions from coal-fired boilers
This paper discusses the technical progress of a US Department of Energy Innovative Clean Coal Technology project demonstrating advanced wall-fired combustion techniques for the reduction of nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions from coal-fired boilers. The primary objective of the demonstration is to determine the long-term NOx reduction performance of advanced overfire air (AOFA), low NOx burners (LNB), and advanced digital control/optimization methodologies applied in a stepwise fashion to a 500 MW boiler. The focus of this paper is to (1) present final results from the AOFA, LNB, and LNB + AOFA test phases and (2) provide an overview of the advanced digital control/optimization methods scheduled for demonstration starting fall 1994. Results from various LNB and AOFA testing and optimization efforts over a four year period provided a progressive improvement in emissions performance as operating and technical familiarity increased.
