This study is aimed to study combustion characteristics of low $NO_X$ burner using petroleum cokes as fuel. The petroleum coke, which is produced through the oil refining process, is an attractive fuel in terms of its high heating value and relatively low price. But petroleum coke is a challenging fuel because of its low volatile content, high sulfur and nitrogen content, which give rise to undesirable emission characteristics and low ignitability. The petroleum cokes burner is operated at fuel rich condition, and overfire air are supplied to achieve fuel lean condition. The low $NO_X$ burner is designed to control fuel and air mixing to achieve air staged combustion, in addition secondary and tertiary air are supplied through swirler. Air distribution ratio of triple staged air are optimized experimentally. The result showed that $NO_X$ concentration is lowest when overfire air is used, and the burner function at a fuel rich condition.

공정효율 및 배기배출물 개선을 위해 로터리 킬른 버너 개발에 대한 연구는 지속적으로 이루어져 왔다. 본 연구에서는 COG(Coke Oven Gas)를 연료로 사용하는 철광석 소결용 로터리 킬른의 다공노즐버너 개발을 위해 일차공기 노즐 직경, 버너 당량비, 버너 중앙노즐과 주위노즐의 당량비 변화에 따른 화염 및 배기배출 특성에 대한 수치해석 연구를 수행하였다. 일차공기 노즐 직경이 증가함에 따라 각 동일 당량비에서 화염길이는 길어지고 $NO_x$ 배출도 증가하였으며, 버너 당량비가 증가함에 따라 화염길이와 $NO_x$ 배출이 증가하는 결과를 보였다. 버너 중앙노즐의 당량비 변화에 따라 $NO_x$ 배출에는 차이를 보였으며, 화염길이 및 킬른 내부 온도에는 큰 차이가 없었다. 본 연구를 통해 $D_2/D_1$가 1.33, 버너 당량비가 1.25이고 버너 중앙 노즐이 Rich인 조건이 킬른 내부 온도분포 및 $NO_x$ 배출량 기준을 만족하는 적절한 설계조건임을 제시하였다.

본 연구는 80 kW 연소로에서 초 저 NO_x 버너를 개발하고 실험한 결과를 나타낸 것이다. 실험은 80 kW 단일 버너 연소로에서 진행되었으며, swirl number 변화, 총 당량비, 1차 / 2차 산화제 비율을 변경하여 진행하였다. 본 연구에서는 가스(LNG)를 보조연료로 사용하여 NO_x 생성량을 크게 감소 시킬 수 있었다. 화력발전소에서 석탄 연소 시 발생하는 NO_x의 양은 약 300 ppm이다. 그러나 본 연구에서 사용된 버너는 LNG를 혼소하여 NO_x의 양을 40 ppm까지 감소 시킬 수 있었다. 1차 산화제의 투입량이 보조 연료인 가스가 연소될 만큼만 사용하여 가스와 석탄을 동시에 투입하면 연소가스가 버너 출구에서 고온영역을 형성하여 석탄을 휘발시키므로 N 탈휘발에 포함되어 배출된다. 그러므로 이 후 석탄이 연소 되면 석탄내 포함된 N이 거의 없기 때문에 NO_x 생성량이 감소하는 것이다. 본 연구 결과를 바탕으로 실제 화력발전소 버너를 개발한다면 NO_x 생성을 연소 초기에 대량 감소시킬 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.

An experimental study was carried out in a small-scale test furnace to investigate the performance, such as $NO_X$ emission, enhancement of heat transfer, uniformity of temperature, and etc, of oscillating combustion applied in radiant tube burner system. A premixed type burner and a cyclic oscillating control valve were designed and used. The fuel, used commercial LPG in this study, was only oscillated using the cyclic oscillating control valve. As oscillating combustion was applied in radiant tube burner system, it is found that $NO_X$ emission, compared to no oscillation, could be reduced by 38% at $90{\sim}120rpm\;(1.5{\sim}2.0Hz)$. However, as oscillating frequency was increased, effect of abatement of $NO_X$ emission is gradually reduced. From the measurement of furnace heating time from $100^{\circ}C$ to $720^{\circ}C$, heat transfer is increased by 11.5% at the oscillation of 120rpm. Temperature distribution of radiant tube surface is more uniform at oscillation of 120rpm with decrease of the peak temperature and increase of low temperature. From these results, it is confirmed that oscillating combustion is useful in radiant tube burner system.

We presented the methods calculating the reduction efficiency of nitrogen oxide for the low $NO_x$ burner as the pollution prevention facilities. The standard $NO_x$ concentration was used on the emission factor of LNG, $3.7g/m^3$. The $NO_x$ reduction efficiency based on the $NO_x$ concentration was presented and the relationships between the $NO_x$ concentration and the emission factor or the specific heat emission factor were derived. These results could be accurately reflected on calculating the amount of the nitrogen oxide emissions. In addition, according to the arrangement of the low $NO_x$ burners the methods of applying their $NO_x$ reduction efficiency were proposed. The $NO_x$ reduction efficiency for the facilities consisting of the low $NO_x$ burners and the non-low $NO_x$ burners could be estimated with information about the reduction efficiency of each low $NO_x$ burners, the fuel consumption rate, and the heating value of fuel.

The emission of $NO_{x}$ during coal combustion is a major reason of environment impact. $NO_{x}$ is an acid rain precursor and participates in the generation of smog through ozone production. $NO_{x}$ can be divided into thermal $NO_{x}$, fuel $NO_{x}$ and prompt $NO_{x}$. Thermal $NO_{x}$ is formed in a highly temperature condition dependent. Fuel $NO_{x}$ is dependent on the local combustion characteristics and initial concentration of nitrogen bound compound, while prompt $NO_{x}$ is formed in a significant quantity in some combustion environments, such as low temperature and short residence times. This paper presents numerical simulation of the flow and combustion characteristics in the furnace of a tangential firing boiler of 500MW with burners installed at the every comer of the furnace. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the reduction of $NO_{x}$ emission in a 500MW pulverized coal tangential firing boiler with different OFA's and burner angles. Calculations with different air flow rates of over fired air(OFA) and burner angles are performed.

For the development of low NO$_{x}$ gas burners aimed for absorption chiller/heater unit, three proto type burners of different capacity (265000, 498000, and 664000 kcal/h) have been manufactured through a combustion method of step-by-step air injection. In order to characterize the overall features of the flame and the properties of the emission gas, the temperature of the flame and the concentration of NO$_{x}$ and CO were determined. The main factors in the design of burners (the area of primary air injection, the diameter of secondary air injection hole, fuel nozzle diameter) were observed to increase linearly with the scale-up of burner capacity. The flame temperature profiles of the burners were observed to be almost similar, irrespective of their capacity. However, as their capacity increased, the flame temperature slightly increased and the hot region of the flames moved to ward the flame tip along with the expansion to the direction of radius. From the proto type units, the amount of their NO$_{x}$ emission was determined to be around 25 - 30 vppm(3% )$_{2}$) and the CO emission was less than 19 vppm (3% $O_{2}$).TEX>).

An experimental study was performed to investigate the characteristics of chemiluminescence in a radiant burner, varying the excess air ratio from 0.91 to 1.67 at firing rate 80.5 to 134.2 kW/m2 on $OH^*,\;CH^*,\;{C_2}^*$ in LNG-Air premixed flames. The signals from electronically excited states of $OH^*,\;CH^*,\;{C_2}^*$ were detected using a Intensified Couple Charged Detector (ICCD) camera. The measurements of exhausted emission were made to investigate the correlation between chemiluminescence and emissions. The chemiluminescence intensity was increased with increase of firing rate like characteristics of $NO_x$ emission. $NO_x$ also increased with increase of firing rate and excess air ratio. It is found that offset of firing rate is more dominant excess air ratio $NO_x$ emission. The maximum chemiluminescence intensity occurs near the stoichiometric excess air ratio or lean conditions in case of high firing rate and the maximum intensity occurs rather than rich conditions in case of relatively low firing rate. Amount of $NO_x$ emission is maximum at near stoichiometric excess air ratio, which is chemiluminescence intensity is maximum.

Increased energy costs have placed demands for improved combustion efficiency, high equipment availability, low maintenance and safe operation. Furthermore low NO$_x\$ modification, installed due to strict environmental legislation, requires very careful combustion management. The flame monitoring system has been developed specially to satisfy these requirements. We aimed at gaining the relationship between the burner flame image and emissions such as NO$_x$ and unburned carbon in furnace by utilizing the image processing method. For the first step of development, its possibility test was undertaken with bench furnace. The test proceeded to the second step with pilot furnace and the system was observed to be effective for evaluating the combustion conditions. By using this technology, it is possible to perform continuous monitoring of the combustion conditions and instant detection of individual changes for each burner to prevent future loss of ignition. This may contribute to the saving of burner adjusting times for the changes of loads and fuels and to the reduction of the slagging as well.
