VAPOR DELIVERY DEVICE, METHODS OF MANUFACTURE AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
A method comprises transporting a first stream of a carrier gas to a delivery device that contains a liquid precursor compound. The method further comprises transporting a second stream of the carrier gas to a point downstream of the delivery device. The first stream after emanating from the delivery device and the second stream are combined to form a third stream, such that the dew point of the vapor of the liquid precursor compound in the third stream is lower than the temperature of the plumbing that transports the vapor to a CVD reactor or a plurality of CVD reactors. The flow direction of the first stream, the flow direction of the second stream and the flow direction of the third stream are unidirectional and are not opposed to each other.
System for introducing gas into a gas grid pipeline
A system for introducing gas from an unconventional source into a gas grid pipeline includes a passive blender (10) that introduces gas from an unconventional source (1) into a gas grid (2), the passive blender (10) having gas inputs (3, 11) from the unconventional source (1) and the gas grid (2) and a blended gas output (12), and wherein an internal flow path within the passive blender (10) is shaped and sized to provide entraining and mixing of the gases. The passive blender (10) acts to entrain gas from a gas grid (2) through input (11) by utilising the flow of gas from an unconventional source (1) through input 3, proportionally blending inputs 3 and 11 before outputting the blended gas back to the main gas grid (2). The system comprises the passive blender (10) of the present invention, a first gas input pipe (11) from a grid gas pipeline (2) into the passive blender (10) a second gas input pipe (3) from the unconventional source (1) into the passive blender (1), and an output pipe (12) from the passive blender (10) into the grid gas pipeline (2). The blender (10) and system are advantageous in that they can greatly reduce the necessary conditioning of unconventional gas before it is introduced into a gas grid supply (2) without additional flow motivation or controls.

Exhaust gas purification device
An exhaust gas purification device is disclosed provided with a denitration catalyst for reducing and removing nitrogen oxides in exhaust gas using ammonia as a reducing agent in a gas flow passage through which the exhaust gas discharged from a boiler flows, and which injects ammonia into the exhaust gas flowing through the gas flow passage on an upstream side of the denitration catalyst, including multiple disturbing plate support members, and a disturbing plate. The multiple disturbing plate support members are fixedly provided on a downstream side of the denitration catalyst and arranged extending linearly in a flow path cross section to cross the gas flow passage. The disturbing plate includes an exhaust gas flow facing surface exposed on an upstream side and is fixed to the disturbing plate support members so that a position thereof in the flow path cross section can be changed.
