Scandinavian plants with NO{sub x} control installations

Abstract

Information was collected to obtain an overview of plants equipped with NO{sub x} control technology and a database created. The database contains over 110 units with a total installed capacity of 30000 MW fuel input. In Denmark, large coal-fired boilers have been equipped with NO{sub x} control technologies. They are mostly on coal-fired boilers in Finland too, however, a few are used there in gas turbines and one in a diesel engine. In Sweden, NO{sub x} control measures are installed at various types of plants, including those burning different fuels from municipal waste to natural gas and using various combustion systems including boilers with burners, stokers, CFBCs, gas turbines and diesel engines. A large number of plants are equipped with NO{sub x} control in Sweden but most units are rather small, resulting in a low total installed capacity. At the end of 1992, 74 plants are equipped with combustion measures (21200 MW fuel input) and 26 plants with flue gas treatment (3000 MW fuel input). In Denmark the installed capacity of NO{sub x} control is about 11000 MW fuel input at the end of 1992, that is about 50% of the total capacity in Scandinavia, but only 8 units, 15%  More>>

In Denmark the installed capacity of NO{sub x} control is about 11000 MW fuel input at the end of 1992, that is about 50% of the total capacity in Scandinavia, but only 8 units, 15% of the total number of units. The largest number of plants equipped with NO{sub x} control is in Sweden, 71 units (76%). Most NO{sub x} control installations are on combined heat and power units. There are NO{sub x} control installations on a few, large units producing electricity and on a large number of small heating plants. The large increase in NO{sub x} control installations in Sweden between 1990 and 1992 is certainly due mostly to the introduction of the fee on NO{sub x} emissions. The number of installations with NO{sub x} control increased during this period form 29 to 71, representing an increase in capacity from 4300 to 8400 MW fuel input. (10 refs., 6 figs., 20 tabs.).}
