In the combustion of a mixture of fuel, air, and steam in a burner, nitrogen oxides are emitted. These nitrogen oxides are toxic and are sometimes of a sufficient concentration in the atmosphere that persons are detrimentally affected thereby.
This invention therefore resides in a process for reducing the amount of nitrogen oxides emitted during combusting of a steam, air, and fuel by controlling the steam to fuel ratio of the mixture in the range of about 0.4 to about 0.95.
Although the process is particularly adaptable for use with stationary burners such as burners of an electrical power plant generating station or other power generation facility as known in the art, said process can be used in other burners for reducing the amount of nitrogen oxide emission therefrom.
These power plants generally combust a mixture of air, steam, and fuel such as heavy oil, including fuel oil containingpowdered coal or coke, residual fuels, all of which normally require some steam for proper atomization. Also No. 2 heating oil and other lighter hydrocarbons through liquid propane which do not'require steam for proper atomization can be utilized.
It has been discovered that these burners can be efficiently and economically operated while reducing the amount of nitrogen oxides emitted during combustion of the fluid mixture if the ratio of the steam to fuel in the combustion zone is carefully controlled and maintained in the range of about 0.4 to about 0.95 pound steam/pound fuel and more particularly in the range of about 0.5 to about 0.7 pound steam/pound fuel. At ratios less than about 0.4 the nitric oxide emissions are not reduced to a. desirable low value and at ratios greater than about 0.95 the process approaches a value at which expenditures for providing the steam are not compensated by corresponding additional nitric oxide emission reductions.
At ratios less than about 0.4 the amount of nitrogen oxides emitted is objectionable and at ratios greater than about 0.95 the efficiency of the burner is less than desirable. This invention therefore sets forth a-precise combustion mixture for the combustion process which markedly reduces the amount of nitrogen oxide pollution discharged therefrom while maintaining the efficiency.
EXAMPLE Combustion was carried out in the combustor shown in the drawing which is representative of a high-heat output burner in which combustion takes place slightly downstream from a nozzle forming a heterogeneous mixture of primary air and droplets of liquid fuel. Provision was made to provide varying quantities of steam into the combustor primary zone through openings immediately surrounding the fuel nozzle. This is essentially the same point at which steam is introduced with large powerplant steam assisted fuel spray nozzles. As a matter of convenience the fuel used in this experiment was a kerosene having the physical properties described in Table I. Although this fuel is somewhat lighter than the heavy fuels frequently used in powerplants, it is well known to those skilled in the art that fuel characteristics of gas or liquid fuels have only a minor influence on burner NO, emissions, i.e., NO is fixed at elevated temperatures in the primary burning gas zone of the combustor.
The variables controlled in this experiment with this combustor are described in Table II. At each of four inlet temperatures (500, 700, 900 and 1,100 P) representative of various powerplant air preheat levels, and at the fuel flow and air flow conditions shown, the steam flow around the fuel nozzle was varied between 0 and 191.2 lb/hr. This permitted steam/fuel ratios of from 0 to 2.48. At each condition a measurement was made of the NO, and hydrocarbons in the exhaust from the combustor. The method for measuring NO, was the standard Saltzman wet chemical technique. Analysis of the unburned hydrocarbons was made by the standard flameionization technique. In order to avoid bias in the results, the emission data were obtained in duplicate at each of the 40 conditions in a statistically designed experiment.
The NO emission data from this experiment are described in Table III and the exhaust hydrocarbon emission data are shown in Table IV. It will be noticed in comparing Tables III and IV that substantially all of the NO, emissions can be eliminated without significant increases in hydrocarbon emissions (Table IV).
There are certain other aspects of the data shown in Tables III and IV that deserve comment. First, it is apparent that the amount of steam used to achieve proper atomization in a heavy liquid fossil .fuel powerplant has an important benefit on NO, emissions, i.e.-, compare the NO, emissions with no steam to the NO, emissions when 02 lb. steam/lb.fuel is used. If it is desired to make a 50 percent reduction of NO emissions from present powerplants, these data suggest that such a reduction can be achieved by increasing the steam/fuel ratio from the present level of 0.2 to approximately 0.8-0.9 lb. steam/lb. fuel (see mean values on Table III). It can be seen in Table IV that this reduction in NO, does not compromise burner efficiency by an increase in exhaust hydrocarbons.
