Abstract In this study, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) together with a component transport model are exploited to investigate the influence of dimensionless parameters, involving the height of the rectifier grid and the installation height of the first catalyst layer, on the flow field and the overall denitration efficiency of a cement kiln’s SCR (Selective catalytic reduction) denitrification reactor. It is shown that accurate numerical results can be obtained by fitting the particle size distribution function to the actual cement kiln fly ash and implementing a non-uniform particle inlet boundary condition. The relative error between denitration More >

Abstract The proper selection of a relevant mixer generally requires an effective assessment of several models against the application requirements. This is a complex task, as traditional evaluation methods generally focus only on a single aspect of performance, such as pressure loss, mixing characteristics, or heat transfer. This study assesses a urea-based selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system installed on a ship, where the installation space is limited and the distance between the urea aqueous solution injection position and the reactor is low; therefore, the static mixer installed in this pipeline has special performance requirements. In particular,… More >

Abstract Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) is a technology by which nitrogen oxides are converted with the aid of a catalyst into diatomic nitrogen and water. It is known that the catalyst can be easily eroded if a cement kiln with a high-dust content is considered. To understand this process, numerical simulations have been carried out considering a single catalyst channel in order to study the collision and erosion of fly ash and catalysts at meso scale. Based on a response surface methodology, the effects of five factors on the erosion rate have been studied, namely, the More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract The influences of steam and sulfide on the efficiency of NOx reduction using ammonia (NH₃) over the nanometer-class V-W/Ti catalyst in conditions of high temperature is experimentally investigated using a steady-flow reactor. The results showed that selective catalytic reduction (SCR) is inhibited by H₂O at low temperature, but higher NO conversion efficiency is achieved at high temperature since the reaction of NH3 oxidized by O₂ to NOx is inhibited by H₂O. The activity of SCR is promoted by SO₂ in the temperature range of 200~500° C, the NO conversion efficiency was improved to 98% from 94% by adding More >
