Abstract: A system and method of reducing NOx emissions from a lean burn combustion source is provided. The system includes at least one injection lance having a elongated shaft with distal and proximal ends, a metering valve positioned at the distal end, an atomization chamber positioned between the metering valve and the distal end, a storage chamber for containing a reagent fluidly connected to the metering valve, an injection tip positioned at the proximal end for delivering the reagent, and at least one air port for supplying air to the atomization chamber. The injection lance is positioned in the combustion source, and the reagent is supplied from the storage chamber to the injection lance at an inlet pressure. The reagent is then injected into the combustion source via the injection lance, wherein a temperature of the reagent prior to the injection is maintained below a hydrolysis temperature of the reagent.

Abstract: Apparatus is provided for collecting samples of fallout, such as power plant stack emissions, from the environment. A collector substrate is adapted to progressively present a fresh collection surface for the collection of fallout from the environment over time. An opening is disposed between the substrate and the environment to allow the fallout to reach the substrate. A cover is provided for the opening. The cover is automatically closed in the presence of rain to protect the substrate from rainwater, and automatically opened after rain terminates to allow the substrate to collect fallout. Mechanical and electrical embodiments are disclosed for the automatic cover.
