Compact cylindrical selective catalytic reduction system for nitrogen oxide reduction in the oxygen-rich exhaust of 500 to 4500 kW internal combustion engines
A compact Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system comprising a system inlet, a gas flow system and a plurality of catalyst clusters is described. The system inlet is configured to utilize heat of the cleaned exhaust to vaporize a solution of a reductant, or a precursor of a reductant, and to mix the vaporized reductant with exhaust gas to form a mixed gas. The gas flow system is configured to provide the mixed gas from the system inlet to a plurality of catalyst clusters and to provide heat from the exhaust gas to assist in vaporization of the reductant/precursor and to assist in the conversion of the precursor to the reductant. The plurality of catalyst clusters comprise SCR and ASC catalysts but can also include filter functionality.
Engine
A marine engine includes a first turbocharger, a first intercooler, a second turbocharger, a second intercooler, an oil filter, and a top cover. The first turbocharger and the second turbocharger supply air by using an exhaust gas. The first intercooler and the second intercooler cool gases having passed through the turbochargers, respectively. The top cover is a cover arranged in an upper region of the marine engine. These devices are arranged so as not to overlap one another when seen in the thickness direction of the top cover.
On-site regeneration method of denitration catalyst in exhaust gas purification system
In an exhaust gas purification system provided with a denitration catalyst layer, a reducing agent oxidation catalyst layer is installed together; a reducing agent and air are supplied into the reducing agent oxidation catalyst layer at the time of catalyst regeneration of the denitration catalyst layer; a high-temperature oxidation reaction gas is produced by a reaction heat generated by an oxidation reaction of the reducing agent and the air in this reducing agent oxidation catalyst layer; and this high-temperature oxidation reaction gas is introduced into the denitration catalyst layer to heat the denitration catalyst, thereby recovering a denitration performance of the catalyst.
Two-stage water-lift muffler for marine generator
A two-stage water-lift and water separation muffler for use with marine electrical generators installed onboard marine vessels. A first stage water-lift muffler has internal tunable sound suppression structure to provide a first stage of exhaust silencing, and a second stage water separator having internal tunable sound suppression structure to provide a second stage of exhaust silencing while separating entrained cooling water from exhaust gases. The combined first stage water-lift muffler and second stage water separator include internal baffling and silencing structure which is easily adaptable to different generator configurations thereby allowing for structural adjustments to the muffler to optimize sound suppression and minimize backpressure for particular generator and/or exhaust conditions.
EXHAUST SYSTEM HAVING HYBRID COOLING ARRANGEMENT
An exhaust system is disclosed for a use with an engine. The exhaust system may have a plurality of manifold sections, each being connected to an adjacent one of the plurality of manifold sections and thereby forming an exhaust manifold. The exhaust system may also have a plurality of elbow-shaped coolant adapters, each being configured to connect a corresponding one of the plurality of manifold sections to a corresponding cylinder head of the engine and having a coolant jacket formed therein. The exhaust system may further have a heat shield formed around the exhaust manifold.
Method and process for capturing carbon dioxide from marine engines
A method and modular desulfurization-decarbonization apparatus for removing contaminants from exhaust gas is described. The apparatus comprises discrete modular units with distinct functions. The modular units may be housed in standard shipping containers and installed on cargo ships. The modules can be removed and replaced while docking with minimal disruption to ship and port operations.
Process to capture SO.SUB.x .onboard vehicles and ships
Provided is a process that may comprise cooling an engine exhaust emissions comprising SO.sub.x on a vehicle that may come from an engine. The cooled engine exhaust emissions comprising SO.sub.x may be passed to one or more absorption units. The SO.sub.x may be extracted from the engine exhaust emissions with a sorbent supported on solid porous media in an absorption unit on the vehicle to form an absorbed SO.sub.x. The absorbed SO.sub.x may be desorbed, followed by forming one or more SO.sub.x product from the desorbed SO.sub.x. The one or more SO.sub.x product may be unloaded to an off-vehicle facility.
Stern drives and water lift exhaust systems for stern drives
A stern drive is for propelling a marine vessel in water. The stern drive is configured to power a propulsor located below the surface of the water. The stern drive comprises an internal combustion engine that powers a driveshaft that axially extends through a transom of the marine vessel; an exhaust manifold that conveys exhaust gas from the internal combustion engine; and an elongated exhaust conduit that redirects the exhaust gas from the exhaust manifold transversely with respect to the driveshaft. The elongated exhaust conduit conveys the exhaust gas to an upstream exhaust outlet that discharges the exhaust gas through the transom below the surface of the water and then to a downstream exhaust outlet that is spaced apart from and is located vertically higher than the upstream exhaust outlet. The elongated exhaust conduit functions as a water lift muffler during operation of the stern drive.
Exhaust gas purification device
In an exhaust gas purification apparatus provided in an exhaust as path of an engine, it is an object of the present invention to shorten a pipe length of a bypass path bypassing a purification catalyst as short as possible, thereby reducing initial costs. The exhaust gas purification apparatus includes a purification casing in which at least the purification catalyst is accommodated. The purification catalyst purifies exhaust gas from the engine. The purification casing is integrally provided with the bypass path separately from the purification path in which the purification catalyst exists. The bypass path makes the exhaust gas bypasses the purification catalyst without passing through the purification catalyst.
Exhaust-gas purification device
An exhaust-gas purification device includes an injection nozzle provided inside an exhaust pipe and a catalyst reactor provided on a downstream side of the injection nozzle, and is configured to inject urea water from the urea water injection nozzle into exhaust gas and to reduce nitrogen oxide in the exhaust gas by a NOx catalyst contained in the catalyst reactor, where the injection nozzle is disposed to inject the urea water toward the downstream side of the flow direction of the exhaust gas, and a mixer is connected to an upstream end of the catalyst reactor, the mixer having a plurality of plate members radially disposed around the axial center of the exhaust pipe, the plate members each being formed in such a way that angles of plate surfaces of the plate member to the flow direction are different values on the upstream side and the downstream side.
