  • Publication number: 20220126280
    Abstract: It is an object to provide a regenerated denitration catalyst whose denitration performance is restored compared with a denitration catalyst before use, utilizing a spent denitration catalyst, and a method for manufacturing the same. In a regenerated denitration catalyst according to the present disclosure, a spent denitration catalyst including a first titanium oxide as a main component, and a second titanium oxide are mixed. The spent denitration catalyst is already used in a denitration reaction in which nitrogen oxides in a gas are decomposed into nitrogen and water using a reducing agent. The second titanium oxide has a larger specific surface area per unit weight than the first titanium oxide. A content of the second titanium oxide based on a total weight of the first titanium oxide and the second titanium oxide is preferably 10% by weight or more and 90% by weight or less.

  • Patent number: 10730014
    Abstract: This boiler has a flue in which a reducing agent supplying device and a selective reduction catalyst are provided, a bypass flow path bypassing economizers is provided, and a first closing device partially closing the bypass flow path and a second closing device partially closing the flue are also provided. A plurality of first closing members, serving as the first closing device, are provided along the direction in which exhaust gas flows through the flue at a predetermined spacing in the width direction of the flue. A plurality of second closing members, serving as the second closing device are provided along the vertical direction at a predetermined spacing in the width direction of the flue. The first closing members and the second closing members are arranged so as to be displaced from each other in the width direction of the flue.

  • Patent number: 10323844
    Abstract: In an exhaust duct and a boiler, there are provided: a flue gas duct through which flue gases pass; a first hopper provided to the flue gas duct, the first hopper collecting PA in the flue gases; a low-repulsion section provided to the upstream side or the downstream side of the first hopper in the direction of flow of the flue gases, the low-repulsion section having a lower coefficient of repulsion than the inner wall surface of the flue gas duct; and a popcorn-ash-trapping section for trapping PA in the flue gases, the popcorn-ash-trapping section provided to the downstream side of the first hopper and the low-repulsion section in the direction of flow of the flue gases, whereby it is possible for solid particles in the flue gases to be properly trapped.

  • Patent number: 6762772
    Abstract: A navigation apparatus, which can reduce time to restore a display condition as much as possible, even when it becomes necessary to restart during executing software, by omitting several initializing processes when the apparatus restarts. In a navigation apparatus, at a time of startup, a display controller is initialized and an initial picture is displayed, so that other initializing process is performed. After that, a present position is displayed and normal navigation process is performed. When a control is complicated as a result of executing plural programs at same time, improper exception occurs and then restarts. In this time, as a pre-process, a map display picture of the present position is stored in an external memory. At a restart process, the display controller firstly displays the map display regarding the present position, and the restart process is performed under this condition so as to restore a normal condition.
