Experiment and mechanism investigation on advanced reburning for NO_x reduction:influence of CO and temperature

Pulverized coal reburning, ammonia injection and advanced reburning in a pilot scale drop tube furnace were inves- tigated. Premix of petroleum gas, air and NH3 were burned in a porous gas burner to generate the needed flue gas. Four kinds of pulverized coal were fed as reburning fuel at constant rate of 1g/min. The coal reburning process parameters including 15%~25% reburn heat input, temperature range from 1100 °C to 1400 °C and also the carbon in fly ash, coal fineness, reburn zone stoichiometric ratio, etc. were investigated. On the condition of 25% reburn heat input, maximum of 47% NO reduction with Yanzhou coal was obtained by pure coal reburning. Optimal temperature for reburning is about 1300 °C and fuel-rich stoichiometric ratio is essential; coal fineness can slightly enhance the reburning ability. The temperature window for ammonia injection is about 700 °C^1100 °C. CO can improve the NH3 ability at lower temperature. During advanced reburning, 72.9% NO reduction was measured. To achieve more than 70% NO reduction, Selective Non-catalytic NOx Reduction (SNCR) should need NH3/NO stoichiometric ratio larger than 5, while advanced reburning only uses common dose of ammonia as in conventional SNCR technology. Mechanism study shows the oxidization of CO can improve the decomposition of H2O, which will rich the radical pools igniting the whole reactions at lower temperatures.

Cold-state Experimental Study on Flow Characteristics of Multi-nozzle in Natural Gas Reburning Burner

Based on the prototypes of a 130 t/h boiler, constant proportional cold-state test bench is established, flow characteristics of multi-nozzle in natural gas reburning burner and its influence on the covering effect for the upflow in the furnace are researched. Numerical simulations of this process are also made with standard ?turbulence model. The results show that air flow fullness in furnace is better in the case of the reburning zone with 8 nozzles compared to 4 nozzles and also coverage effect of the reburning flow for the updraft gas in the furnace is better. In the condition each nozzle airflow velocity is constant, the effect of reburning flow on coverage of up-secondary air is best when the incident angle for four corners is 14.17?, while Center of the furnace wall is 84.57. And while the best incident angle is invariable, the effect of reburning flow on coverage of up-secondary air is best when the speed of reburning gas in the corners of furnace is 51 m/s, the same to the center of the furnace wall’s.

Experimental Research and Mathematical Modelling for Coal Reburning in Furnace

Reburning technology is one of the most cost-effective NOx reduction strategies for coal combustion systems. In this paper, a nitric oxide submodel incorporated into a comprehensive coal combustion model was developed for predicting NOx reduction in a 93 kW laboratory-scale coal combustion furnace by reburning. This NO submodel, including reburning mechanism, requires the solution of only two transport equations to model the behavior of NO reduction in the reburning process. A number of experiments have been performed in the same furnace, and the experimental data obtained from the optimized reburn configuration was used to validate the model. Measurements and predictions both show above 50% reduction of NO emissions for the optimized reburning process. Profile comparisons show that the predicted temperature and oxygen concentration match well with the measurements, and the general trend of predicted NO concentration is very similar to that measured. The results of this study show that the present nitric oxide submodel depicts quite well the observed behaviour of NO annihilation in the reburning process. It is expected that this usable and computationally economic model represents a useful tool to simulate the gaseous fuel reburning process for the researchers concerned with practical combustors.

Numerical Study on Reduction of NO_x and Unburned Carbon in Micronized Coal Reburning

Three dimensional numerical simulation of bituminous coal reburning in a full-scale tangentially fired boiler was conducted with CFD method to study the effects of reburn zone length, the height of reburn nozzles, the stoichiometric ratio in reburn zone, the reburn fuel fraction and the reburn coal fineness on NOx reduction efficiency and unburned carbon in fly ash. The results indicate that the NOx reduction efficiency reaches the largest value when the relative height of reburn nozzles is about 0.21 and the stoichiometric ratio is between 0.8 and 0.9 in reburn zone; NOx reduction efficiency increases with reburn zone length, reburn fuel fraction and the decrease of reburn coal particle size; the smaller the coal particle size is, the better the burnout performance of coal is.

Detailed in-furnace measurements with reburning of superfine pulverized coal in high CO_(2)concentration

This paper presents detailed measurements of gaseous species during the reburning process with high CO_(2)concentration in a bench-scale furnace.Superfine pulverized coal,with the average particle size below or around 20μm,is used as the reburning fuel.The data of flue gas concentration(NOx,HCN,NH_(3),CH_(4),O_(2),CO,CO_(2)etc.)is obtained in order to reveal the intrinsic connection between NOx emissions and other influential gaseous species at different positions of the furnace.The finding concludes that the advantage of superfine pulverized coal with regard to NO reduction is more efficient in homogeneous stage rather than heterogeneous stage.Meanwhile,the evolution of HCN and CH_(4)agrees well with each stage of NO reduction,which indicates that these gaseous species are favorable for NO abatement.Eventually,oxygen consumption rate for superfine pulverized coal is relatively faster,conducive to strengthen both homogeneous and heterogeneous NO reduction under CO_(2)reburning condition.
