Provided is a combustion system using a catalyst having better denitration efficiency at low temperatures, during a selective catalytic reduction reaction in which ammonia is used as a reducing agent.

This combustion system comprises: a combustion device that combusts fuel; an exhaust path through which flows exhaust gas generated from the combustion of fuel in the combustion device; a dust collection device that is arranged on the exhaust path and collects soot/dust in the exhaust gas; and a denitration device that is arranged on the exhaust path and removes nitrogen oxides from the exhaust gas by means of a denitration catalyst, wherein the denitration device is arranged downstream of the dust collection device on the exhaust path, and the denitration catalyst contains vanadium oxide, has a carbon content of 0.05 wt % or more, and has a defect site in which oxygen deficiency occurs in a crystal structure.

An exhaust gas cooler includes: a steam drum containing first water; an economizer for heat exchange between exhaust gas and the first water supplied from the steam drum; and a feedwater pipe for supplying the first water with second water having a lower temperature than the first water. The exhaust gas cooler is configured such that the first water flowing out of the economizer is introduced into the steam drum. The second water is divided and supplied to the first water flowing out of the economizer and the first water flowing into the economizer.

In a high-efficient clean, high-variable load rate coal-fired power generation system, through the internal thermal source SCR denitration catalytic module coupled with high temperature and low temperature storage tanks, the operating temperature of the internal thermal source SCR denitration catalytic module is controlled in a range of 300° C. to 400° C., ensuring that the SCR catalyst has high activity in full-working conditions. Moreover, the high temperature and low temperature storage tanks are coupled with the high-pressure heater group for steam turbine regenerative system, so that when the coal-fired unit needs to increase load rate, the thermal storage energy is quickly converted into output power. In addition, energy stored in the high temperature and low temperature storage tanks come from both the internal thermal source SCR denitration catalytic module and the thermal storage medium heater within the boiler, the operational flexibility and the boiler efficiency are improved.

A combustion system includes a fuel and oxidant source that outputs fuel and oxidant, a first perforated flame holder, and a second perforated flame holder separated from the first perforated flame holder by a gap. The first and second perforated flame holders sustain a combustion reaction of the fuel and oxidant within the first and second perforated flame holders.

A vehicle heater includes a burner area, a circumferential wall providing a combustion chamber, a flame tube with a first end forming or adjacent to a part of the combustion chamber circumferential wall and a second flame tube end. A heat exchanger housing has a circumferential wall enclosing the flame tube. A waste gas backflow space is formed, between an outer side of the flame tube and an inner side of the heat exchanger housing circumferential wall, with an inlet area at the second flame tube end and with an outlet area in the area of the first flame tube end. An inner dimension of the circumferential wall increases in the direction from an inlet area of the waste gas backflow space to an outlet area. An outer dimension of the flame tube increases in the direction from the second flame tube end to the first flame tube end.

Oxy-fuel combustion of a fuel stream, an oxygen stream and a recycle stream can form an exhaust stream, with, for example, a gas turbine. The exhaust stream can be separated into a water-rich stream and a carbon dioxide-rich stream. At least a portion of the carbon dioxide-rich stream can be divided to form the recycle stream. A second portion of the carbon dioxide-rich stream and a hydrogen stream can generate an exit stream, with, for example, a Sabatier reactor. The exit stream can be separated into a methane-rich gaseous product and a water-rich liquid product.

A waste heat recovery system comprising a thermal circuit. The thermal circuit includes a boiler and an expander fluidly coupled to the boiler. The thermal circuit further includes a power transfer system integrated to the expander. The power transfer system is configured to receive mechanical energy from the expander. The thermal circuit further includes an ejector fluidly coupled to the boiler and to the power transfer system. The ejector is configured to receive a motive flow of working fluid from the boiler. The ejector is further configured to receive a suction flow of working fluid from the power transfer system. The ejector is further configured to combine the motive flow of working fluid and the suction flow of working fluid.

This disclosure provides systems and methods that utilize integrated mechanical vapor or thermal vapor compression to upgrade process vapors and condense them to recover the heat of condensation across multiple processes, wherein the total process energy is reduced. Existing processes that are unable to recover the heat of condensation in vapors are integrated with mechanical or thermal compressors that raise vapor pressures and temperatures sufficient to permit reuse. Integrating multiple processes permits vapor upgrading that can selectively optimize energy efficiency, environmental sustainability, process economics, or a prioritized blend of such goals. Mechanical or thermal vapor compression also alters the type of energy required in industrial processes, favoring electro-mechanical energy which can be supplied from low-carbon, renewable sources rather than combustion of carbonaceous fuels.
