| 20110070140 | CATALYST FOR REMOVAL OF NITROGEN OXIDE AND METHOD FOR REMOVAL OF NITROGEN OXIDE - A nitrogen oxide removing catalyst has a porous material having fine holes with controlled diameters and a catalyst having an active ingredient supported in the fine holes are used. In one instance, the diameter of the plurality of fine holes is within a range of 8-9 Å. The fine hole diameter is preferably from 8-9 Å when the diameter is measured in a gas adsorption method in which fine holes with diameters of 3.4-14 Å can be measured. The fine hole diameter is also preferably from 8-9 Å when the fine hole diameter is calculated from a crystal structure. In another instance, the porous material is mesoporous silica. The primary particle diameter of the mesoporous silica is preferably within a range of 150-300 nm. The nitrogen oxide removing catalyst having superior durability and a method of removing nitrogen oxides are also provided. | 03-24-2011 |
| 20100269741 | SOLID FUEL BURNER, SOLID FUEL BURNER COMBUSTION METHOD, COMBUSTION APPARATUS AND COMBUSTION APPARATUS OPERATION METHOD - A solid fuel burner and its combustion method suited for encouraging fuel ignition and avoiding slugging caused by combustion ash, wherein a gas of low oxygen concentration (exhaust combustion gas) is used as a carrier gas of such a low grade solid fuel as brown coal. An additional air nozzle for jetting additional air having a velocity component in the circumferential direction of a fuel nozzle is provided in the fuel nozzle, thereby encouraging mixing between the fuel and air in the fuel nozzle. Further, the amount of air supplied from the additional air nozzle is adjusted in response to the difference in combustion loads. Under light load, the amount of air supplied from the additional air nozzle is increased so as to increase the oxygen concentration of the circulating flow formed downstream of the outside of the outlet of the fuel nozzle, whereby stable combustion is ensured. Under heavy load, by contrast, the amount of air supplied from the additional air nozzle is decreased, and a flame is formed away from the fuel nozzle in such a way that burner structures and furnace wall will be less subjected to radiant heat. | 10-28-2010 |
| 20100223926 | Dust Coal Boiler, Dust Coal Combustion Method, Dust Coal Fuel Thermal Power Generation System, and Waste Gas Purification System for Dust Coal Boiler - A pulverized coal thermal power generation system that significantly reduces the amount of NOx emissions from a boiler and does not require a denitration unit is provided. When a denitration unit is not used, performance to remove mercury from a boiler waste gas is reduced. A waste gas purification system for a pulverized coal boiler, that compensates for this is provided. | 09-09-2010 |
