PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method of improving combustion of coal to reduce discharge of NOx without significantly increasing carbon contained in the un-burned ash, desirably, by utilizing characteristic of a coal concentration. SOLUTION: Formation of NOx in combustion of the hydrocarbonaceous fuel such as coal is reduced by separating a flow having a fuel solid material/air ratio higher than that of a fuel solid material and air supply flow from the fuel solid material and air flow, and filling the flow thereby obtained and a small quantity of oxygen into a burner in a part wherein the fuel solid material is burned.

Abstract:
PURPOSE:To make it possible to suppress the quantity of soot and dust particularly in the case of using a heavy fuel in a high-load furnace or a small- size furnace by using an emulsified fuel as a secondary fuel. CONSTITUTION:Upon carrying out three-step combustion by successively disposing a primary burner 12, a secondary fuel nozzle 13 and a secondary air nozzle 14 on the rear stream side, an emulsified fuel prepared by mixing and agitating a fuel F and hot water W with each other by a mixer 22 as a fuel supplied to the secondary fuel nozzle 13, is used. Accordingly, the relation between the emulsification ratio of the secondary fuel and the quantity of soots and dirts generated upon the actual burning operation lies in that, as compared with the case where the entire fuel is emulsified, the increase in the heat loss can be suppressed, and a great suppression of the quantity of soot and dust generated becomes possible.
Abstract:
PURPOSE:To decrease the exhausting rates of generated NOX and smoke dust by producing reducing gas by gasifying pulverized coal, by feeding the air for primary combustion, which has a specified air ratio and is preheated higher than the specified temperature or is oxygen-enriched, into a combustion chamber together with water content and pulverized coal. CONSTITUTION:At the time of combustion, first, mixture of pulverized coal and water content is fed into the primary combustion chamber 2a from fuel feed pipes 5. At the same time, the air for primary combustion, which has the air ratio of 0.7-0.95 and is preheated higher than 400 deg.C or is enriched with oxygen, is fed into the primary combustion chamber 2a, from the primary combustion air feed pipes 6. Then, fuel is burned, with pulverized coal being gasified. By this method, pulverized coal is promoted to be gasified into reducing gas, and the concentration of CO and H2 is increased in a reducing chamber 2b to increase the reducing rate of NOX. Next, the gas is fed into the secondary combustion chamber 2c which is formed above the reducing chamber 2b, and unreacted reducing gas is burned in the chamber 2c by feeding the air for secondary combustion from air ports 8.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a low NO X boiler capable of reducing NO x emission and discharging ash without stopping a furnace and enabling nonstop continuous operation even when inferior quality fuel including large nitrogen content and ash content is used. SOLUTION: A high-temperature reduction combustion zone 2 is formed at an upper end part of a cylindrical combustion chamber 1 and a two-stage combustion zone 3 is formed at an intermediate stage part. The lower part of the two-stage combustion zone 3 is narrowed to have a tapered shape in which a combustion chamber wall is positioned at an approximately 35° with respect to the vertical line, and an ash discharge port 8 is provided in the tapered bottom part. A gas outflow port 11 leading to a gas leading passage 12 is provided on the lower side face of the two-stage combustion zone 3. After passing through a steam superheater 13 and an economizer 14, the gas leading passage 12 is connected to a tail-end process. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce mercury (Hg) in flue gas generated from the combustion of coal. SOLUTION: A method to reduce mercury in gas emissions from the combustion of coal (26) is disclosed. Mercury emissions can be reduced by staging combustion process (20) and/or reducing boiler excess oxygen (16). Fly ash formed under combustion staging conditions is more reactive towards mercury than fly ash formed under typical combustion conditions. Reducing boiler excess oxygen can also improve ability of fly ash to adsorb mercury. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
