Abstract: The present invention is a method for selective reduction of nitrogen oxides in a gas stream with ammonia wherein the ammonia is vaporized prior to contacting it with the carrying fluid. The present invention also comprises a reducing agent dispersion system for use in substantially uniformly mixing a reducing agent with nitrogen oxides in a flue gas stream comprising a header and a plurality of lances. Further, the present invention comprises a novel reactor design for use in selective reduction of nitrogen oxides in a gas stream.

Abstract: A system and method of maintaining an optimal temperature range for a catalyst section in a HRSG comprising placing a portion of the exhaust stream in a heat exchanger and superheater, diverting a second portion around the heat exchanger and superheater, combining the two portions and contacting the two portions with a catalyst section. Alternatively, a system of heat exchangers are employed to address the fluctuating exhaust temperature caused by the intermittent use of the duct burners.

Abstract: A zeolite based SCR catalyst for NOx reduction using a reducing agent for treating exhaust streams from industrial and commercial boilers is provided. The reactor system has a zeolite based catalyst arranged in catalyst cassettes in a modular fashion where the reactor containing the zeolite based SCR catalyst cassettes is placed in a perpendicular direction to the exhaust exiting the industrial and/or commercial boiler. The catalyst selectively reduces nitrogen oxides to nitrogen with a reducing agent at low to medium temperatures. The reactor results in high NOx conversions and very low ammonia slip and is active for a wide range of boiler firing conditions. Boilers with low NOx and/or ultra low NOx burners can be replaced with a standard conventional burner for overall emissions reduction performance, efficiency improvements and energy savings. Boilers with low NOx and ultra low NOx burners can also be fitted with this zeolite based SCR catalyst reactor for additional NOx reductions and energy savings.

Abstract: This invention is an emission control system wherein the boiler hosts a reactor which contains one or more catalysts for the purpose of reducing NOx and/or CO in the emissions. The reactor containing the NOx/CO catalysts may be placed at a place where the temperature is in the range of 300-1000° F. The hot flue gas can be diverted using control dampers and blended with colder flue gas inside the boiler to achieve the desired flue gas temperature for the selected catalyst. NOx is removed by the SCR catalyst inside the boiler upon injecting a suitable reducing agent (e.g. ammonia, or hydrocarbons). The CO and NOx catalysts may be used in any order. The emission control system is an integral part of the boiler, and the existing capabilities of the boiler to recover the heat from flue gas, after the catalyst layers, is utilized such that the overall boiler efficiency remains high.
