Control of NOx emissions by reburning: Summary report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:544474
This report serves as a summary of reburning technologies that are being tested on coal-fired, utility boilers and reflects on-going work in the field of reburning systems. In Chapter 2, the chemistry of NOx formation in coal-fired boilers is presented along with the theoretical basis for NOx emission control through reburning. Also in Chapter 2, an overview various types of coal-fired boilers to which reburning may be applied is provided. Representative case studies and test data for a range of boiler types are summarized in Chapter 3. The process economics of retrofitting reburning to an existing boiler is discussed in Chapter 4.
