The effect of co-firing hydrogen/ammonia on nitrogen oxides emissions from boilers is investigated. The reaction kinetics file is modified based on coal quality analysis and experimental results. A psr reactor network based on CFD simulation results is constructed according to the fluid dynamics(CFD) simulation results. Combing with the chemical reaction kinetics analysis method
the NOx emissions after burning hydrogen/ammonia at four positions of primary air
peripheral air
secondary air and post secondary air in five schemes are analyzed. The results show that
for the researched boiler
when the hydrogen co-firing position is located in the secondary air scheme
and the hydrogen mixing ratio is 20%
the NO emission reduces by 32.4%
and the emission concentration of unburned carbon does not change much compared to the pure coal condition. When the ammonia co-firing position is located behind the secondary air
the NO emission mass concentration is slightly higher than that under the pure coal condition
and the emission mass concentration of unburned carbon reduces significantly. The above two schemes are recommended for co-firing hydrogen/ammonia in the coal-fired boiler
with nitrogen oxide emissions as the evaluation index. This method and conclusion provides a theoretical basis for the engineering implementation of hydrogen/ammonia co-firing technology.
