Trade-offs in NO/sub x/ control

Journal Article Whitaker, R; McElroy, M; Miller, M - EPRI J.; (United States)

Further reduction in nitrogen oxides (NO/sub x/) emissions may be technically feasible, but the cost of more stringent flue gas regulations may not be justified. Power plant NO/sub x/ emissions are easier to regulate than those from automobiles. Design and operating changes in utility furnaces and boilers to control emissions are not as evident as other kinds of pollution control equipment, but the increased use of coal and concerns about acid rain may change that. New research on the chemical treatment of flue gas is looking at selective catalytic reduction (SCR) with ammonia. Other programs are studying the origins andmore »« less
Retrofit SO/sub 2/ and NO/sub x/ control technologies for coal-fired power plants

Conference Miller, M

Recently, existing source category plants, particularly coal-fired units, have been the subject of proposals for additional controls on SO/sub 2/ and NO/sub x/ due to concerns over acidic deposition, visibility impairment, and compliance with ambient air quality standards. These plants, comprising over 200 GW of capacity, are located primarily in the eastern U.S. and produce approximately 80% of all electricity consumed in the region. Thus, these proposed emission reduction strategies could affect a large portion of generating capacity and incur large costs to ratepayers. Proposals aimed at reducing SO/sub 2/ and NO/sub x/ emissions have included four general options: 1.more »« less
Integrating low-NO{sub x} burners, overfire air, and selective non-catalytic reduction on a utility coal-fired boiler

Journal Article Hunt, T; Muzio, L; Smith, R - Environmental Progress

Public Service Company of Colorado (PSCo), in cooperation with the US Department of Energy (DOE) and the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), is testing the Integrated Dry NO{sub x}/SO{sub 2} Emissions Control system. This system combines low-NO{sub x} burners, overfire air, selective non-catalytic reduction (SNCR), and dry sorbent injection with humidification to reduce by up to 70% both NO{sub x} and SO{sub 2} emissions from a 100 MW coal-fired utility boiler. The project is being conducted at PSCo`s Arapahoe Unit 4 located in Denver, Colorado as part of the DOE`s Clean Coal Technology Round 3 program. The urea-based SNCR system,more »« less

1995 EPRI/EPA joint symposium on stationary combustion NO{sub x} control

Technical Report Herzau, J; Kubik, D; Wanninger, K

Combustion Modification (CM) is an often used technique for reducing NO{sub X}. formation from utility boilers. CM can be implemented by changing boiler operation parameters using the existing firing equipment, or through hardware modifications. Achievable potential NO{sub x} reduction levels and long term operational effects of either approach are boiler specific. Implementation of either methodology can lead to changes in boiler operating efficiency, reliability, availability, and maintenance costs. An economic analysis of alternatives must accurately reflect associated costs. Proper implementation of the selected NO{sub x} reduction technology is essential in preventing the transformation of an emission problem into an operationalmore »« less
Experimental evaluation of NO/sub x/ control using a glass tank simulator

Conference Abbasi, H; Khinkis, M; Waibel, R; ...

This paper discusses the results of tests conducted on a 1/4-scale glass melter firing port to determine the effects of various burner operating parameters on NO/sub x/ mission levels. The burner port was designed for a firing rate of 3 million Btu/hr in consultation with a container glass manufacturer and was tested on a pilot-scale furnace. The furnace was operated at temperatures generally found in glass melters (2600/sup 0/ to 2850/sup 0/F). The furnace temperature was adjusted using water-cooling tubes as a load. We investigated combustion air preheat temperature (1600/sup 0/F to 2200/sup 0/F), air/fuel ratio (fuel rich to 8%more »« less
