| Summary: | The primary objective of this CCT project is to evaluate the use of Gas Reburning and Low NOₓ Burners (GR-LNB) for NOₓ emission control from a wall fired boiler. It is anticipated that, if the demonstration is successful, the GR-LNB technology could become commercialized during the 1990's and will be capable of (1) achieving significant reduction in the emissions of nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide (another acid rain precursor) from existing facilities to minimize environmental impacts such as transboundary and interstate pollution and/or (2) providing for future energy needs in an environmentally acceptable manner. Low NOₓ burners are designed to delay the mixing of the coal fuel with combustion air to minimize the NOₓ formation. Typically, one may obtain up to 50% reduction in NOₓ emissions through the use of LNB. For LNB applications, the technology is developed and a number of LNB designs are commercially available. |
