Public Service Electric and Gas Company (PSE&G) evaluated the effectiveness of post-combustion NO{sub x} control technologies on a wet-bottomed, coal-fired utility boiler. The technologies studied were conventional urea-based SNCR, in-duct and air heater SCR, and a combination of SNCR and SCR. While SNCR and, to a limited extent, SCR have been used on coal-fired boilers, these processes had not been demonstrated on a unit with the same configuration as the wet-bottom, continuous stagging, pulverized coal furnaces operated at PSE&G`s Mercer Generating Station.
