  • Systems and methods for prewarming heat recovery steam generator piping
    Patent number: 8776521
    Abstract: The present application describes a heat recovery steam generator. The heat recovery steam generator may include a superheater, a first turbine section, a first main steam line in communication with the superheater and the first turbine section, and a first prewarming line positioned downstream of the first main steam line such that a flow of steam from the superheater preheats the first main steam line without entry into the first turbine section.
    Type: Grant

    Assignee: General Electric Company
    Inventors: Leslie Yung-Min Tong, Diego Rancruel, SriHarsha Vedavyasachar
  • Ammonia injection system
    Patent number: 8459001
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a system includes an emissions reduction system including a compressor in fluid communication with a catalyst mixing tank. The compressor is configured to output an air flow configured to deliver catalyst from the catalyst mixing tank to a catalyst injection grid. A temperature of the air flow is increased by the compressor.
