Second Generation Advanced Reburning for High Efficiency NO(x) Control.

This project is designed to develop a family of novel NO{sub x} control technologies, called Second Generation Advanced Reburning which has the potential to achieve 90+% NO{sub x} control in coal fired boilers at a significantly lower cost than SCR. The eighth reporting period (July 1 - September 30, 1997) included experimental and final report preparation activities. Experiments on high-temperature reactions of sodium carbonate were completed at the University of Texas in Austin. This study revealed that sodium can affect NO{sub x} concentrations under both fuel-rich and fuel-lean conditions. The engineering design conducted during the previous reporting period was converted into retrofit hardware for the AR-Lean system and initial test results are presented and discussed. All information presented in this report is in summary form since a Draft Final project report was submitted to DOE FETC by July 31, 1997
