Abstract: The present application provides a selective catalyst reduction system for use with a combustion gas stream of a gas turbine. The selective catalyst reduction system may include a tempering air system with a finger mixer and a number of mixer plates and a catalyst positioned downstream of the tempering air system. The tempering air system cools the combustion gas stream and evens out the temperature profile before the combustion gas stream reaches the catalyst.

Abstract: The present disclosure deals with a gas cleaning system (1) for cleaning process flue gas. The gas cleaning system (1) comprises a reactor inlet duct (13) having a longitudinal axis and a reactor duct (14) fluidly connected perpendicularly to the reactor inlet duct and positioned downstream from the reactor inlet duct. The reactor duct likewise has a longitudinal axis. Within the reactor duct is a gas cleaning device (20), such as a catalytic reactor, and a gas flow rectifier (30) for rectifying flue gas flow from the reactor inlet duct (13) into the reactor duct (14). The gas flow rectifier is arranged in the reactor duct upstream of the gas cleaning device (20), wherein the gas flow rectifier (30) comprises at least one expanded screen (30a).

Abstract: An injector mixer arrangement (10) for supplying a reducing agent in gaseous form into a flue gas flowing in a gas duct (14) communicating with a catalyst (18a) in a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) reactor (12) arranged downstream of said injector mixer arrangement (10). The injector mixer arrangement (10) comprises an injector grid (22) equipped with a plurality of nozzles (30) arranged horizontally within the gas duct (14). The nozzles (30) are adapted to supply said reducing agent to the gas duct (14). The injector mixer arrangement (10) further comprises first stage mixer plates (24) and second stage mixer plates (26) arranged in the gas duct (14) downstream of said nozzles (30) and upstream of SCR reactor 12.

Abstract: An air quality control system (AQCS) 14 useful for treating flue gas FG, such as flue gas FG produced by a fossil fuel fired boiler 12 is described. The AQCS 14 is equipped with a dust separator 37. The dust separator 37 is useful under relatively high dust load conditions downstream from a dry scrubber reactor 36 with limited equipment wear and limited space requirements. As such, the dust separator captures particulate matter with a dust trap that intercepts the flow of particulate matter for collection of the particulate matter in a hopper.

Abstract: The invention pertains to fluegas recirculation in gas turbines, and specifically to an intake section upstream of the inlet of a compressor of a gas turbine unit with fluegas recirculation. The intake section includes at least one section with a flow path defined by sidewalls in which the fresh airflow of the intake air is flowing along a principal airflow direction, including at least one mixing duct extending into the flow path from at least one sidewall. The mixing duct includes an intake at the at least one sidewall for receiving recirculated fluegas, as well as including at least one outlet opening distanced from said sidewall for blowing recirculated fluegas out of the mixing duct into the airflow.
