摘要:
A furnace that combusts fuel, such as coal, of a given minimum energy content to obtain a stated minimum amount of energy per unit of time is enabled to combust fuel having a lower energy content, while still obtaining at least the stated minimum energy generation rate, by replacing a small amount of the combustion air fed to the furnace by oxygen. The replacement of oxygen for combustion air also provides reduction in the generation of NOx.
摘要:
A method and system is provided for combusting a fuel having application to a heat consuming device such as a boiler or furnace or a reactor. An oxygen-containing stream is introduced into one or more oxygen transport membranes subjected to a reactive purge or a sweep gas. The oxygen transport membrane(s) can advantageously be subjected to a reactive purge or a sweep gas passing in a cross-flow direction with respect to the membranes to facilitate separation of the oxygen. In case of a reactive purge, temperature control of the oxygen transport membrane(s) is effectuated by the use of a suitable heat sink. Further, the oxygen transport membranes can be arranged in a row and be connected in series such that retentate streams of ever lower oxygen concentrations are passed to successive oxygen transport membranes in the row. The fuel or sweep gas can be introduced in a direction counter-current to the bulk flow of the retentate streams.
摘要:
An oxygen separation and combustion apparatus such as a boiler or a nitrogen generator in which a plurality of fluid passages and oxygen transport membranes are located within a combustion chamber. The oxygen transport membranes separate oxygen from an oxygen containing gas, thereby to provide the oxygen within the combustion chamber to support combustion of a fuel and thereby to generate heat. The fluid passages are positioned to allow a portion of the heat to be transferred from the combustion to the oxygen transport membranes to heat said oxygen transport membranes to an operational temperature and a further portion of the heat to be transferred from the combustion to the fluid, thereby to heat the fluid and also, to help stabilize the operational temperature of said oxygen transport membranes. Fuel is introduced into the combustion chamber by injection or as a mixture with circulated flue gas. The fuel is introduced into the combustion chamber and the combustion products are discharged so that said combustion products flow in a direction predominantly parallel to said membranes.

摘要:
Combustion of hydrocarbon fuel is achieved with less formation of NOx by feeding the fuel into a slightly oxygen-enriched atmosphere, and separating air into oxygen-rich and nitrogen-rich streams which are fed separately into the combustion device.
摘要:
A manufacturing method of ceramic slurry being used for producing a green sheet which can have a smooth surface, exhibits a satisfactory sheet strength, and is excellent in workability such as releasing, a green sheet produced by the use of the slurry produced by the method, and a multilayer ceramic device produced by the use of the green sheet is provided. According to the present invention, a manufacturing method of ceramic slurry at least comprising a ceramic powder and a binder resin solution, wherein a high-pressure dispersing treatment of the ceramic powder and a lacquer for preliminary addition, which is a part of the binder resin solution, is carried out so that a shearing rate is set to 1×107 to 1×108 [1/sec] to prepare a preliminary slurry, and at least a lacquer for post-addition, which a high-pressure dispersing treatment is not applied, is added to the preliminary slurry which a high-pressure dispersing treatment is applied.
