Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to the reduction of nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions from small industrial, commercial and electric utility boilers and other lean burn stationary combustion sources. More particularly, the present invention relates to a system and method in which urea is converted to ammonia for use in NOx reduction by selective catalytic reduction (SCR). BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] The reduction of nitrogen oxide (“NOx”) emissions from small industrial, commercial and electric utility boilers and other lean burn stationary combustion sources continues to be a challenge.

  • 5,282,355 describes the prior art as using NOx free exhaust extracted by an exhaust gas recirculation fan to vaporize aqueous ammonia in a vaporizer from which it is injected into the flue upstream of a catalyst layer via an ammonia vapor pipe. He identifies aqueous urea as a precursor to aqueous ammonia which can also be vaporized by NOx free exhaust. For aqueous based solutions of ammonia, Yamaguchi suggests that 0.5-1.0 seconds are required to vaporize the ammonia solution and Yamaguchi does not address the time required for complete decomposition and gasification of an aqueous solution of urea.
  • Yamaguchi identifies concerns about the formation and deposition of solids from the reaction of ammonia with other exhaust gas species and so proposes using superheated steam from the boiler or other source to provide the heat to vaporize the aqueous ammonia or its precursor in a vaporizer.
  • the use of steam from a boiler has a penalty associated with removing steam from the heat or power generation process and also with the cost of preparing de mineralized boiler makeup water to replace the steam used in the vaporization of the aqueous ammonia or its precursor.
  • aqueous urea into a pyrolysis chamber with droplets of under 500 micron, and preferably under 100 micron, will facilitate complete gasification of urea prior to introduction into the exhaust gases and allow close coupling of the pyrolysis chamber and SCR catalyst.
  • the use of a return flow injector is proposed to cool the injector and prevent solids from plugging the injector.
  • the pyrolysis chamber of Peter Hoblyn et al. is described in the specification and shown in the drawings as a small heated chamber with discrete holes disposed in the primary exhaust stream or as a foraminous structure that allows aqueous urea that has been gasified to ammonia in the chamber to escape into the flue gases and flow across a downstream SCR catalyst.
  • Peter-Hoblyn et al. do not describe how to prevent plugging of the compact pyrolysis chamber with urea decomposition products, especially at higher urea injection rates. Additionally, it is difficult to see how complete gasification of urea is accomplished in the pyrolysis chamber described by Peter-Hoblyn et al. While the process of Peter-Hoblyn et al. may work for low urea injection rates on the order of 10-25 grams/minute as required for passenger car diesel engines, it is not apparent how this approach would scale up for higher injection rates of 50-1000 grams/minute or greater, as often required for small stationary combustion sources.

  • a heat transfer medium such as ambient air
  • Cho et al. avoid the need for external electricity or steam for vaporization but do not describe how the temperature in the vaporizer will be maintained at low loads and low flue gas temperatures across the heat exchanger, especially with the cooling effect of the aqueous reagent and atomizing air injected into the vaporizer.
  • Lin et al. teach that a side stream can be generated by bypassing some portion of flue gases around a heat exchanger surface, such as an economizer, into which aqueous urea can be injected and gasified prior to forming a combined stream across a catalyst.

  • Lin et al. describe the bypass flow as less than 10% of the combustion gases. Obviously the overall combustor efficiency would be negatively affected if this large quantity of flue gas were bypassed around a heat exchanger.

  • Sun et al. in U.S. Patent Nos. 7,090,810 and 7,829,033, describe a process for reducing NOx from a large-scale combustor involving a side stream of gases or heated ambient air into which urea is injected for decomposition and then introducing the side stream into a primary stream for NOx reduction across a catalyst.
  • Sun et al. specifically teach that residence times of 1 -10 seconds are required to effectively evaporate the water and gasify the urea such that solid byproducts do not foul the distribution pipes, ammonia injection grid (“AIG”) or catalyst or heat transfer surfaces.

  • Fuel Tech Inc. has commercially marketed a system called the ULTRATM process which generally uses a burner to decompose large quantities of urea to ammonia for large-scale combustors and a related product called ULTRA-5TM for smaller applications which uses an electric heater to heat ambient air for urea conversion.

  • the use of ambient temperature atomizing air for the air atomized injector of the Fuel Tech processes can represent as much as 8% of the overall air through the decomposition chamber.

[0018] When the exhaust gas slipstream is above 750 °F, cooling air, water injection or cooler downstream exhaust gas can be added to the slipstream to lower the gas temperature to the blower to less than 750 °F.

  • FIG. 1 illustrates a boiler configuration (10) wherein fuel and air are combusted by a burner (28) to form a flame (26) and hot combustion gases (20) which follow an exhaust path (58) past boiler tubes (46) where water through the tubes is converted to steam. Hot exhaust gases continue (60) and exit the boiler through an outlet transition (62). Ambient air (A) is drawn in through a fan (12) and ducted through a cold portion (22) of a continuous duct (14) to an electric heater (25) which heats the ambient air to a temperature of 700 °F - 950 °F.
  • the heated air exiting the electric heater then passes through the hot portion (27) of the continuous duct (14) and through a transition portion (30) of the continuous duct (14) into an injection portion (18) of the continuous duct (14).
  • Injector (36) injects aqueous based urea reagent (32) stored in tank (34) into the injection portion (18) of the continuous duct (14) and flows with the hot carrier gas into the decomposition portion (33) of the continuous duct (14) where the water is evaporated and the reagent is decomposed to ammonia gas.
  • the decomposed and gasified reagent is then ducted to an ammonia injection grid (37) and introduced into the primary exhaust gas (40) through the AIG lances (42) located upstream of catalyst (44).
  • Temperature sensor (35) is used by the controller (56) to control the heater (25) so that the gas temperature in the decomposition portion (33) of the continuous duct (14) after the point of reagent injection is above 600 °F and preferably above 650 °F (i.e., some cooling of the gas, which is supplied to the injection portion (18) of the continuous duct (14) at a temperature of at least 700 °F, may take place due to the injection of the reagent).
  • Pump (54) circulates reagent to injector (36) from storage tank (34) which holds aqueous based reagent (32).
  • Controller (56) controls the pump speed to maintain the pressure of the reagent delivered to the injector (36) and also controls the on time of the injector (36) to regulate the quantity of reagent injected as a function of one or more signals of the boiler load, fuel flow, inlet NOx, outlet NOx, gas flow or ammonia slip past the catalyst.
  • the decomposition portion (33) of the continuous duct (14) is sized to provide a residence time of less than 1 second and more typically between 0.2-0.6 seconds.
  • the continuous duct (14) has a circular cross section and the diameter of the injection portion (18) of the continuous duct (14) is between 0.2 and 2.5 times the diameter of the decomposition portion (33) of the continuous duct (14).
  • the diameters of the injection portion (18) of the continuous duct (14) and the decomposition portion (33) of the continuous duct (14) are the same. It should be noted where the duct is not circular (for example square or rectangular) that the ratio between the injection portion (18) of the continuous duct (14) and the decomposition portion (33) of the continuous duct (14) can also be measured by the cross-sectional area of the ducts.
  • Figure 2 shows an arrangement very similar to that shown in Figure 1 and like reference characters are used to designate like elements. However, the main difference between the embodiment shown in Figure 2 and that shown in Figure 1 is that the ambient air to the fan (12) of Figure 1 is replaced with a hot exhaust gas drawn off from the boiler exhaust via a conduit (70).
  • the exhaust gas temperature at the take off point is between 400 °F and 750 °F as it is delivered to the fan (12), and preferably, the exhaust gas is taken off from the boiler after the heat exchanger section thereof, such that no heat exchanger is bypassed.
  • the electric heater (25) is then used, if necessary, to maintain a temperature of the gases supplied to the injection portion (18) of the continuous duct (14) of at least 700F such that the temperature of the gas flowing in the decomposition portion (33) is at least 650 °F after injection of the reagent.
  • Figure 3 again shows an arrangement very similar to that shown in Figure 1 and like reference characters are used to designate like elements.
  • Example 1 A slipstream of exhaust gas from a lean burn combustion engine is directed to an injection portion of a continuous duct.
  • the slipstream flow rate is 300 scfm at a temperature of 700 °F to 750 °F.
  • the exhaust gas in the primary exhaust and in the slipstream contains 1100 ppm of NOx.
  • the slipstream is connected to an injection portion (18) and a decomposition portion (33) of a continuous duct (14) that is 5” in diameter.

  • a computer based TRIM- NOX® injection system as commercially available through Combustion Components Associates Inc. with an injection pump, filter, day tank, pressure sensor and touch screen display is used to inject the aqueous reagent at a rate of 0.5 to 0.75 gallons/hr into the injection duct.
  • the injection portion (18) and the decomposition portion (33) form part of a continuous duct (14), the outlet of which is connected to an ammonia injection grid (AIG) (37).
  • the AIG (37) includes two injection lances (42) that are connected to the outlet of the decomposition portion (33) of the continuous duct (14).
  • the AIG lances (42) have multiple outlet ports to allow ammonia gas to escape from the lances.
  • the AIG lances are fixed in the inlet of a SCR catalyst reactor, upstream of the catalyst (44), such that ammonia gas generated through the decomposition of urea in the decomposition portion (33) of the continuous duct (14) is injected from the lance outlet ports into the flowing stream of the primary exhaust flowing through the catalyst.
  • the catalyst (44) is of a commercial vanadium type formulation on a honeycomb support designed to reduce NOx in the presence of ammonia.
  • NOx out of the catalyst reactor is reduced from 1100 ppm to 100 ppm indicating the decomposition of the aqueous urea to ammonia gas through the decomposition duct is sufficient to reduce NOx in the primary exhaust gas as it passes through the catalyst.
  • Example 2 [0047] A fan is used to supply ambient air to a 60 Kw electric heater. The fan and heater deliver 300 scfm of air at a temperature of 700 °F to 750 °F to a 5” diameter continuous duct having an injection portion (18) and a decomposition portion (33).
