EMISS IONS FROM GAS BURNER, THEIR IMPACT ON THE ENVIRONMENT AND ABATEMENT TECHNIQUES

Abstract

The growing concern over increasing regional and local emissions and
concentrations of nitrogen oxides has led to action to reduce emissions
by the introduction of legislation in many countries. Recently, there
have been significant developments in nitrogen oxides control
legislation, both nationally and internationally. All of these legislation
and regulation limits on NOx emissions has led to the development of low
NOx combustors especially for new plants. Basically there are two
methods of reducing NOx The first involved modifications to the
combustion processes to prevent the formation of NOx The second
methods is to treat the combustion gas chemically, aji er the flame, to
redu ce NOx to N2
