Definitions
- the present invention relates to a combustion apparatus of the type comprising a combustion chamber and convection parts disposed downstream thereof and connected to an exhaust system for generated combus- tion gases, and further comprising a reactor space which is provided in a high-temperature zone of the flow path of the combustion gases between said combus ⁇ tion chamber and said convection parts, and which has a turbulence or gas-agitation promoting design or built-in structure.
- Such an apparatus is known from Swedish Patent Specification SE-B-436,791.
- the combustion apparatus according to this patent specification has a reactor space in a high-temperature zone immediately follow- ing the combustion section.
- the reaction zone accom ⁇ modates turbulence means for agitating gases.
- the catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides takes place at low temperatures. Research has however indicated that such a treatment may give rise to harmful reaction products in the flue gases, such as carcinogenic substances. Moreover, the devices hitherto used have however not provided a sufficient reduction of nitrogenous gases. In view of the above, the present invention has for its object to improve the reduction in combustion apparatus of the above-mentioned type.
- this object is achiev ⁇ ed by means of a combustion apparatus of the type stated in the introduction to this specification, which is designed in the manner recited in the main claim.
- the subclai s state particularly advantageous embodiments of the invention.
- the invention is thus based on the insight that by injecting e.g. urea in aqueous solution along with substances activating and promoting the reduction, it is possible to reduce nitrogen monoxide and nitro ⁇ gen dioxide into N_ , with the formation of hydrogen and carbon dioxide, if it is ensured that the inject- ed substances are sufficiently thoroughly mixed with the flue gases and maintained in contact therewith at temperatures of about 1100°C down to about 800°C for a time required for the reaction.
- the reactor space must be given such a fluid flow design that the residence time of the combustion gases in the reactor space is at least 0.3 s, preferably 0.5 s or more.
- the injection devices have at least two outlets which open into the reactor space at a distance from each other along the flow path of the combustion gases.
- the first of the two outlets is preferably disposed adjacent the upstream end of the reactor space, while the second outlet is disposed approximately midway between the upstream and downstream ends of the reac- tor space.
- the outlets preferably are atomiser nozzles. Each outlet may have several nozzles, especially if the passageway through the reactor space has a substantial width.
- the reactor space should have a turbulence or gas-agitation promoting design or built-in structure.
- Turbulence and gas agitation can be increased by mounting baffles, guide vanes, projections on the walls etc, but a particularly ad ⁇ vantageous turbulence and gas-agitation promoting effect is obtained if the gases, in or adjacent the inlet of the reactor space, are conducted through a turbine blade wheel-like construction imparting a rotary or whirling motion to the gases.
- Fig. 1 is a flow diagram of a combustion apparatus according to the invention.
- Figs. 2-6 show different examples of apparatus according to the invention.
- a combustion apparatus according to the invention has a combustion chamber 10, a reactor 11 and a convection part 12 connected to a chimney 13.
- the reactor is placed in such a man ⁇ ner in relation to the combustion chamber and the convection part that the temperature of the flue gases is about 1100°C when entering the reactor, and about 800°C when leaving the reactor.
- Fig. 2 shows an example of an apparatus accord ⁇ ing to the invention.
- This combustion apparatus con- sists of a tube boiler having a combustion chamber 10, a reactor part 11 and a convection part 12.
- the combustion chamber accommodates one or more gas or oil burners 1 with a downwardly directed flame.
- the reactor 11 is separated from the combustion chamber
- a cooled partition 15 which consists of wall- forming tubes and which, at the transition between the combustion chamber and the reactor space, is bent apart so as to form a grid 16.
- inwardly directed projections 17 serving to produce turbulence and agitation in the flow of flue gases.
- tube assemblies 18 forming conventional superheaters and preheater units.
- the reactor space 11 accommodates injection devices with a first set of injectors 19 adjacent the inlet of the reactor space and a second set of injectors 20 approximately half-way up to the convection part 12.
- the reactor space has such a design that the residence time of the combustion gases therein will be sufficiently long for a complete reaction to take place.
- the dimensions are such that the residence time of the combustion gases in the reactor space becomes at least 0.3 s, advantageously 0.5 s or more.
- FIG. 3 shows a further example of an apparatus according to the invention.
- the reactor space 11 is provided above the roof of the combus ⁇ tion chamber and is angled by means of a partition 21 which may be cooled.
- a partition 21 which may be cooled.
- Such an angled design of the reactor space produces agitation which can be further increased by built-in structures similar to those shown, e.g. in Fig. 2.
- Fig. 4 shows a further embodiment where the reac ⁇ tor space 11 is separated from the combustion chamber 10 by a partition 15.
- the walls of the reactor space are provided with inclined guide vanes or baffles 23 which increase the agitation and produce the re ⁇ quired turbulence.
- Fig. 5 shows yet another embodiment according to the invention. This embodiment differs from those previously described, primarily in that the transition between the combustion chamber 10 and the reactor space 11 consists of turbulence-generating means in the form of a built-in structure 22 having a turbine- blade-like design in order to impart a rotary motion to the flue gases at the inlet to the reactor space 11.
- the agitation in the reactor space 11 is further increased by deflecting the rotating gas flow on its way to the convection part 12. Also in this case, it Ts of course possible to use addi ⁇ tional agitation-promoting built-in arrangements.
- Fig. 6 finally, shows a power plant boiler of considerable dimensions, in which the reactor space consists of the upper part of the combustion chamber 10, i.e. the part above the injection devices 19.
- the injection devices 19 are arranged at such a dis ⁇ tance from the convection part that a sufficient re- sidence time in the reactor space is achieved before the entry of the combustion gases into the convec ⁇ tion part 12.
