The method for introducing a treatment medium into the waste
gas flow in combustion processes provides that a carrier medium
is mixed with a treatment medium, wherein these media are brought
to a pressure level necessary for atomization in a one-component
nozzle prior to mixing. The quantitative proportion of treatment
medium to carrier medium, which is adjustable as desired, is
adjusted as a function of the NOx gas concentration in the
treated gas flow or as a function of the gas quantity. It is
substantial in this method that a plurality of atomizing nozzles
are arranged in different planes, and that the flame development
in the furnace is monitored by means of flame detectors. When
the flame front reaches the lowest nozzle plane, the supply of
treatment medium to these nozzles is blocked and the nozzles
located above the latter, in which there is not yet a flame, are
regulated with respect to the throughput of treatment medium as a
function of the NOx gas concentration or the waste gas quantity.
As soon as the flame front forms again in the area of the lowest
nozzles, treatment medium is again admitted to these atomizing
nozzles. Carrier medium can also be admitted to the lower
atomizing nozzles without treatment medium in order to cool the
nozzles when the carrier medium is water.
La méthode pour introduire un agent de traitement dans un flux de gaz de combustion prévoit le mélange d'un agent véhiculeur avec l'agent de traitement, et ces agents sont amenés au niveau de pression nécessaire à la pulvérisation dans un gicleur monobloc avant d'être mélangés. La proportion d'agent de traitement mélangé à l'agent véhiculeur, qu'on peut régler à la valeur souhaitée, est choisie en fonction de la concentration de gaz NOx dans le flux de gaz traité ou en fonction de la quantité de gaz. Il est essentiel dans la présente méthode qu'une pluralité de gicleurs-pulvérisateurs soient disposés sur différents plans et que le développement de la flamme dans le foyer soit contrôlé au moyen de détecteurs de flamme. Quand le front de flamme atteint le plan des gicleurs les plus bas, l'alimentation en agent de traitement de ces gicleurs est bloquée et les gicleurs au-dessus, dans lesquels il n'y a pas encore de flamme, sont réglés en tenant compte du débit d'alimentation en agent de traitement en fonction de la concentration de gaz NOx ou de la quantité de gaz de combustion. Dès que le front de flamme se reforme dans la zone des gicleurs les plus bas, ceux-ci sont à nouveau alimentés en agent de traitement. Les gicleurs-pulvérisateurs les plus bas peuvent aussi être alimentés en agent véhiculeur sans agent de traitement dans le but de refroidir les gicleurs lorsqu'on utilise de l'eau comme agent véhiculeur.
