Dynamic Ammonia Spray Aperture for SCR Denitrification
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current SCR denitrification devices in thermal power plants face challenges in maintaining a stable ammonia spray amount matching the fluctuating flue gas flow rate, leading to either excessive ammonia deposition or insufficient nitrogen oxide reduction due to the inability to adjust the ammonia spray amount in real-time.
Innovation Solution
A device with a housing, force suffering plate, baffle, base, and adjustable assembly including a pull shaft, sliding block, and elastic element, which adjusts the aperture for ammoniacal gas flow based on the flue gas flow rate, ensuring timely and automatic matching of ammonia spray with the flow rate.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a fixed steel-made ammonia spray grille and nozzle are used in SCR denitrification device, then the structure is simple and easy to manufacture, but the ammonia spray amount cannot be adjusted to match fluctuating flue gas flow rate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the dynamics principle by replacing the fixed steel-made spray grille and nozzle with a movable sliding block structure that can dynamically adjust the aperture opening degree. The sliding block moves along the aperture under the action of flue gas flow force, automatically changing the ammonia spray amount to match the fluctuating flue gas flow rate, thus resolving the contradiction between adaptability and structural simplicity.
2Measurement precision
If ammonia spray amount is controlled based on feedback from nitrogen oxide concentration measurement, then long-term ammonia spray matching is improved, but considerable time delay occurs from measuring to adjusting
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the preliminary action principle by using the flue gas flow rate as a leading indicator to adjust the ammonia spray amount before the nitrogen oxide concentration actually changes. Since the flue gas flow rate directly affects the required ammonia amount, adjusting based on this real-time parameter eliminates the time delay inherent in measuring nitrogen oxide concentration and then adjusting, achieving proactive rather than reactive control.
3Productivity
If excessive ammonia spray amount is used, then nitrogen oxide reduction is sufficient, but severe deposition of ammonium bisulfate occurs in air preheater downstream
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the feedback principle by creating a closed-loop control system where the flue gas flow rate serves as the feedback parameter. The sliding block's position is automatically adjusted based on the real-time flue gas flow rate, which in turn controls the ammonia spray amount. This continuous feedback mechanism ensures the ammonia spray amount precisely matches the actual demand, preventing both excessive spray (which causes ammonium bisulfate deposition) and insufficient spray (which reduces nitrogen oxide reduction efficiency).

This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The device allows for immediate and precise adjustment of ammonia spray volume in response to changing flue gas flow rates, preventing ammonium bisulfate deposition and ensuring effective nitrogen oxide reduction, thereby stabilizing boiler operation and reducing nitrogen oxide emissions.
Implementation Method 1
an elastic element, the first end of which is connected to the sliding block and the second end of which is connected to the base; in response to an increasing flow rate of the flue gas that results in a first force onto the force suffering plate being greater than a second force generated by the elastic element
Implementation Method 2
a force suffering plate, arranged outside the housing and opposite to the outlet, and configured to suffer impact from the flue gas and the ammoniacal gas
