  • Patent number: 6827762
    Abstract: A system is disclosed for flue gas purification and a method is disclosed for introducing a purifying agent. A purifying agent is introduced into the metering device of a system for flue gas purification in a simple and inexpensive manner. To this end, the system is provided with a collector that is adapted to receive a plurality of storage containers for the purifying agent and that is used to automatically displace the storage containers relative to the metering device. The automatic displaceability of the storage containers substantially reduces the number of interventions by the operating personnel.

  • Publication number: 20040055225
    Abstract: The aim of the invention is to construct an industrial installation (1), for example an industrial power plant, comprising a large number of functional units with dimensions that have been proportioned in accordance with a predeterminable design parameter, using a minimum of design and planning resources. To achieve this, an inventive modular system comprises a number of modular components (2, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60), each of which contains a number of functional units, which are grouped according to their function, each modular component (2, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60) having standard dimensions that are independent of the design parameter.

  • Publication number: 20030154864
    Abstract: The invention relates to a system for flue gas purification and to a method for introducing a purifying agent. The aim of the invention is to introduce a purifying agent (R) into the metering device (8) of a system (2) for flue gas purification in a simple and inexpensive manner. To this end, the system is provided with a collector (4) that is adapted to receive a plurality of storage containers (6) for the purifying agent (R) and that is used to automatically displace the storage containers (6) relative to the metering device (8). The automatic displaceability of the storage containers (6) substantially reduces the number of interventions by the operating personnel.

  • Patent number: 6581383
    Abstract: A power station is formed of a plurality of mobile modules. One of the mobile modules is a connecting module which has only connecting lines, control equipment, cut-off equipment and measuring equipment installed therein. The connection module can be used for different power stations, which allows a cost-effective construction of power stations. Further, fittings which have to be monitored and operated are concentrated in the connecting module, which reduces operating costs of the power station.
