New NOx reduction methods in utilizing agricultural residues as energy source

Abstract: From the points of view of economy and energy policy, the utilization as an energy source of agricultural residues, such as hay, straw and residues from cereal cleaning, is a major issue. However, in terms of firing technology, this is demanding compared to wood fuels due to the unfavourable fuel properties of residues. In a joint project, a new combustion concept has been developed and thoroughly tested. In addition to achieving a largely complete combustion especially the nitrogen oxide emissions could be significantly reduced. The examinations revealed a clear correlation of nitrogen oxide concentrations in the flue gas and the reducing conditions in the burnout zone, which could be imaged using numerical flow and combustion simulation. The knowledge gained provides valuable data for the development of new firing systems for agricultural residues and their optimal operation. https://www.landtechnik-online.eu/landtechnik/article/view/100
