Power generation

Abstract From the Canadian patent

of the Invention, A catalyst chamber capable of converting the oxides of sulfur to hydrogen sulfide and the oxides of nitrogen to inert nitrogen and ammonia in the presence of a reducing atmosphere is inserted downstream of the boiler section of a fossil fuel burning power generator and there is added a system for extracting formed hydrogen sulfide from the fuel gas stream. After combustion of the primary fuel typically sulfur, bearing coal in excess air a gaseous hydrocarbon such as, methane is combined with the products of combustion to at least scavenge the oxygen present to form a boiler effluent which ranges from slightly oxidizing to reducing in nature. Where the boiler effluent is …
