Key environmental issues in waste to energy and biomass plants

In fully oxidative incineration the main constituents of the flue-gas are water vapor, nitrogen, carbon dioxide and oxygen. Depending on the composition of the material incinerated and on the operating conditions, the main emissions are:

NOx abatement systems

21

NOx Abatement

SNCR

SCR

SNCR + SCR

Principal reactions for nitrogen oxides (NOx) reduction through ammonia injection:

4 NO + 4 NH3 + O2 → 4 N2 + 6 H2O

2 NO2 + 4 NH3 + O2 → 3 N2 + 6 H2O

The most flexible solution



SNCR

22



The ammonia solution is directly injected in the boiler(last part of the evaporator) by means of two levels oflances (each level consists of four lances).

Upstream the injection system (lances), a dosing skid isnecessary to obtain the required amount of ammoniasolution in terms of water content (dilution) and pressure.


Acid gases, dioxins and furans abatement

(SOx HCl e HF)

Dry Reactor (with or without dust

recirculation)

Bag Filter "Secondary Reactor"(thickness of the “cake”)

Principal reactions for acid gases abatement (SOx HCl e HF) through lime injection:

Ca(OH)2 + 2 HCl → CaCl2 + 2 H2O

Ca(OH)2 + 2 HF → CaF2 + 2 H2O

Ca(OH)2 + SO2 → CaSO3 + H2O

Ca(OH)2 + SO3 → CaSO4 + H2O

Dosing Lime


24



Dry reactor is positined downstream theboiler and upstream the bag filter.

Two storage silos (160 m3 each)equipped with vibrators and pneumatictransport system for reactor feeding.

25



The activated carbon, stocked in "big bags", are opportunelydosed and sent to the dry reactor (with the lime) by means of apneumatic transport system.

26



27



Two storage silos (250 m3 each)equipped with vibrators and electricalheaters.

Each silo consists of a telescopic dischargesystem for truck.

SCR – Ammonia Storage

28



Ammonia tank = 40 m3 (SS) Protected by a containment

structure. Safety relief valve on top of tank

to prevent ammonia dispersion. Common ammonia tank for both

SNCR and SCR. Safety system for unloading by

truck.

SCR Reactor

29



Two honeycomb structure reactors toincrease catalytic surface.

Placed downstream the bag filter (topreserve the catalytic surfaces).

Two heat exchanger (gas/gas andgas/steam) to mantain a constanttemperature (SCR inlet) of about 250°C (ideal for SCR).

• The ammonia solution is injected in astatic mixing chamber (upstream theSCR and downstream the HEs) bymeans of four lances.
