  • Publication number: 20170335734
    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.

  • Publication number: 20150030508
    Abstract: A catalytic reactor (16) is provided for purposes of effecting therewith the removal of nitrogen oxides from a process gas (F) that includes at least two catalyst bed segments (48, 50, 52), each of which is provided with a closing device (60, 62, 64). The catalytic reactor (16) is operative for causing said process gas (F) to flow through a first catalyst bed segment (48). Said process gas (F) is at a first temperature at which the sulphur trioxide that is entrained in said hot process gas is at least partially precipitated out on to the catalytic material that said first catalyst bed segment (48) embodies. Periodically said closing device (60) is operated in order to thereby isolate said first bed segment (48) from the flow therethrough of said hot process gas (F). A regeneration system (34, 36, 38) is also provided that is operative for purposes of causing a regenerating gas to flow through the first bed segment (48).
