Book The Reduction of NOx Emissions from Marine Power Plants

Download or read book The Reduction of NOx Emissions from Marine Power Plants written by and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The EPA has proposed a 9.2 g/kWh NOx limit for maritime diesel engines. Gas turbines, which are always cleaner burning, have escaped maritime NOx mandates at this time. However, in Europe, increasingly stricter exhaust emission limits for shipboard turbines near high-pollution ports undergo periodic review. Anticipating these proposed mandates, the Navy has been directed by OPNAVINST 5090 1A to comply therewith. EPA studies show that two-cycle marine diesel configurations combining exhaust-gas recirculation, retardation of the timing of injection, intercooling, and an oxidation catalyst for combustion of particulates lower NOx-emission levels to 8.5 g/kWh. Water injection appears ineffective below water-fuel ratios of 0.4, and is not cost effective for achieving the required NOx emission objective, at least in two-cycle engines. The proposed diesel configuration eliminates any negative ship impact on the engine-room spaces from water-management systems and water logistics. Contrastingly, water injection into the combustor of gas turbines is a state-of-the-art development, which may be a low-risk, low-cost option for reduction of gas-turbine emissions. It is anticipated that the required pure water would be obtained from water purification plants and stored supplies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the feasibility and status of the use of alternative fuels in marine engineering, as well as the application of liquefied natural gas, biodiesel and their blends as marine fuels, and the combustion of synthetic coal-based fuels. Each chapter in the book ends with a summary, which gives the reader a quick and clear understanding of the main contents of the chapter. The book gives a lot of advice on the selection of equipment and parameters, fuel reserves and preparation for scholars related to alternative fuels in ships, and points them in the way. It contains lots of illustrations and tables and explains it in the form of chart comparison. The authors have developed mathematical models and methods for calculating the parameters of fuel systems for biodiesel fuels and liquefied natural gas. Recommendations for choosing the rational parameters of these systems are given, as are schematic solutions of the fuel systems, recommendations for selecting equipment, storing, and preparing the fuels. Application of the materials described in the book provides the SPP designers with a reliable tool for choosing rational characteristics of the fuel systems operating on alternative fuels and improving the efficiency of their application on ships.

Download or read book Emissions Reduction written by A. Tomita and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2001-12-18 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decade the topic of emissions reduction and control has remained an important area of research due to the enforcement of various Government policies in an attempt to minimize the impact on the environment. One area in which a great deal of research has been conducted to address this policy is NOx/SOx suppression. However, despite the progress that has been made over this time period, further research into the most effective method of reducing NOx/SOx emissions is still urgently required. In developed countries, a more stringent requirement in the level of emissions (such as is NOx/SOx component of less than 10ppm) will be enforced in the near future. Developing countries will also need a new technology that is effective and that is suited to each countries needs. Additional research and development efforts are thus necessary to meet such requirements. This compendium contains a collection of key papers themed around NOx/SOx emissions from combustion of hydrocarbon resources and the attempts to secure an efficient and effective method for reducing these emissions. These key papers are taken from the journals Fuel, Fuel Processing Technology and Progress in Energy and Combustion Science.

Book Flexible NOx Abatement from Power Plants in the Eastern United States

Download or read book Flexible NOx Abatement from Power Plants in the Eastern United States written by Lin Sun (S.M. Massachusetts Institute of Technology) and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emission controls that provide incentives for maximizing reductions in emissions of ozone precursors on days when ozone concentrations are highest have the potential to be cost-effective ozone management strategies. Conventional prescriptive emissions controls or cap-and-trade programs consider all emissions similarly regardless of when they occur, despite the fact that contributions to ozone formation may vary. In contrast, a time-differentiated approach targets emissions reductions on forecasted high ozone days without imposition of additional costs on lower ozone days. This work examines simulations of such dynamic air quality management strategies for NOx emissions from electric generating units. Results from a model of day-specific NOx pricing applied to the Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland (PJM) portion of the northeastern U.S. electrical grid demonstrate (i) that sufficient flexibility in electricity generation is available to allow power production to be switched from high to low NOx emitting facilities, (ii) that the emission price required to induce EGUs to change their strategies for power generation are competitive with other control costs, (iii) that dispatching strategies, which can change the spatial and temporal distribution of emissions, lead to ozone concentration reductions comparable to other control technologies, and (iv) that air quality forecasting is sufficiently accurate to allow EGUs to adapt their power generation strategies.
