METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR REDUCING NOX EMISSIONS IN THE INCINERATION OF TAIL GAS

摘要

Methods for control of NOx emission in the incineration of tail gas are provided wherein tail gas that comprises NOx, NOx precursors, or both is introduced into a combustor and diluent is introduced into the combustor for controlling the combustor temperature to a temperature of from about 950"C to about 1 100°C. Methods also are provided for reducing NOx emissions by controlling air-to-fuel ratio in a tail gas combustor while controlling the combustor flame temperature through diluent injections. A boiler unit for carrying out these methods also is provided. A system for carbon black production using the boiler unit also is provided.
