DEC Envirosystems

Your Partner in emission control…

NOx abatement and control technology is a relatively complex issue and the selection of technology is dependent on various factors including Boiler type & arrangement, Plant layout, Flue gas composition, temperature etc. and outlet NOx requirement.

The selection of deNOx technology can be any of the following type:

    • Selective Non-Catalytic Reduction (SNCR)
    • Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR)
    • Hybrid  (SCNR+SCR)

DEC Envirosystems (A Division of DEC Engineering & Constructions Pvt. Ltd.) based at Vadodara, India in association with Beijing National Power Group Company Ltd. (BNPC), Beijing, Peoples Republic of China can provide optimized deNOx technology and solutions for Thermal Power Plants.

DEC Envirosystems focuses on providing solutions for deNOx to the Cement & Power and other combustion systems - from taking up Plant studies to commissioning including design & engineering, supply & installation in association with their technology Partner on virtually all emission related matters. The Division is headed by Subhajit Hazra (CEO) who has around four decades of experience in the Operations & Project execution of Metallurgical Units in India & Central Africa and the Division is supported by an able team of designers and personnel for Project execution.

Beijing National Power Group Company Ltd. was founded in 2013 and has a registered capital of 102 million RMB. The primary commitment of the Company includes design & development of environmental protection products. BNPC has a successful track record of carrying out design & engineering, supply and installation of over 20 Plants for deNOx systems in the last three years for Plant size of upto 600 MW. Units have been supplied for SNCR, SCR and Hybrid Systems.

Beijing National Power Group Co. Ltd. has a strong R&D base and has over 13 Patents to its credit which includes nine invention Patents.

The Company has its own Catalyst manufacturing Units and supplied Catalyst to 70 Units / Power Plants.

NOx control technologies…

Selective non–catalytic reduction (SNCR) Systems inject Ammonia/Ammonia solution/Urea in flue gas having temperature of 800-1100oC. The DRE (Destruction or removal efficiency) is to the extent of 70% (varies as per flue gas conditions etc.). It is a relatively simpler deNOx system with lower investment.



The reactions are as follows:
With Aqueous Ammonia
4NO+4NH3+O2        =>      4N2+6H2O
2NO2+4NH3+O2       =>      3N2+6H2O

With Urea
2CO(NH2)2+2NO2+O2     =>     3N2+2CO2+4H2O
2CO(NH2)2+4NO+O2      =>      4N2+2CO2+4H2O

Based on the Flue gas characteristics, Boiler configuration etc., the key design considerations include:

    • Design of Injectors
    • Selection of injection point
    • Control strategy of injection at different injection points at varying loads.


Advantages and disadvantages of SNCR

Advantages

Disadvantages

No need of Catalyst

Low NOx removal efficiency

Simple deNOx system

Large reagent consumption

Relatively low investment

High running cost

Short construction period

High reaction temperature

Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) is most efficient (DRE up to around 90%) means to convert Nitrogen oxides (NOx) to Nitrogen and Water with the aid of a Catalyst in oxidizing atmosphere and temperature range of 250-430oC . Choice of Catalyst mainly depends on the flue gas characteristics. Anhydrous Ammonia is generally preferred as the reductant.

Main reactions are:
4NO + 4NH3 + O2 → 4N2 + 6H2O
2NO + 4NH3 + 2O2 → 3N2 + 6H2O
6NO2 + 8NH3 → 7N2 + 12H2O

Side reaction:
2SO2+O2 → 2SO3

Hybrids (SCR+SNCR) are the optimal choice where the need for NOx reduction is high but space limitations etc. are present. The Hybrid system is relatively new and the most flexible choice for NOx reduction technology. With a Hybrid System, the catalyst volumes can be reduced in comparison to full SCR System, reducing the space and investment needed.
