An ammonia-containing exhaust gas treatment system and its operation method

This invention provides an ammonia-containing exhaust gas treatment system and its operation method. The system integrates combustion and reliquefaction processes. First, ammonia is separated from the ammonia-containing exhaust gas using a membrane separator. The remaining portion after ammonia separation is the mixed gas to be emitted. When the exhaust gas analyzer detects that the mixed gas meets emission standards, it is directly emitted into the environment. When the analyzer detects that the mixed gas does not meet emission standards, it is returned to the exhaust gas buffer tank. The reliquefaction process involves reliquefying, storing, and reusing the separated ammonia as fuel, turning waste into treasure and creating economic value. The combustion process involves the system fully combusting the ammonia exhaust gas, using liquid ammonia produced during reliquefaction as fuel. Based on this self-circulation, the two processes have advantages such as simple structure, synergy, and ease of installation, making them easy to widely promote.
