Coal fired power plant SCR(Selective Catalytic Reduction) honeycomb denitrification catalyst

I. Introduction of China NH3 SCR technology

NOx emissions form coal fired power plant account for 80% of total industrial nitrogen oxides emissions; it is the main source of NOx pollution in China, strength the management of NOx emission is imperative.

At present, SCR(Selective Catalytic Reduction) for denitrification of nitrogen oxides in smokes is the mainstream technology in the world. SCR use reduction function of NH3 to NOx, under the condition of temperate between 320~400℃, that catalyst reduction happens change NOx to N2 and water which have no impact to the environment . “Selective” means NH3 only select NOx for reducing reaction.

In 2010, Ministry of Environmental Protection of China issue 《Technology policy regarding to power plant nitrogen oxides treatment》, it explicitly point out the nitrogen oxides not only is the import stuff form to ozone, but also is the important reason from district fine particle pollution and dust haze. At the same time, nitrogen oxides have great risk to human health as the primary pollutant.

In Sept 21 2011, Ministry of Environmental Protection of China enacted 《Standard for atmospheric Pollutant Discharge of power plant》, the laws determine the emission concentration of nitrogen oxides is 100mg/m3, execution time since 2012 for new generating sets while since July 2014 for old generating sets. All Chinese power plants should follow the standards.

30 Nov 2011, National Development and Innovation Committee of China enacted 《The State adopts a comprehensive measure to control coal and electricity price, explicitly point out since 1 Dec 2011, implement policy of price markup 0.8 yuan to every KWH for those coal fired power plants which have installed and normal use the SCR denitrification system.

The “upgraded” National Emission Standard will be the powerful driving force to control emission of coal fired power plant and improve China air quality and control Acid Rain Pollution. Along with prevalent of Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology, domestic research and develop SCR catalyst emerged, catalyst is the key of SCR system, its design and select is depend on smoke condition and smoke composition. Three interacting factor to catalyst design is NOx removal rate, NH3 escape rates and catalyst volume. The mainly 3 type of catalyst board type, honeycomb type and corrugated board type.

At present, domestic famous universities and colleges (such as NANKAI University, Tsinghua University, Beijing University of Technology, Zhejiang university, Shandong University, Xi’an Jiaotong University, Nanjing University of Science and Technology, Taiyuan University of Science and Technology, Harbin Institute of Technology, Xiamen University, Fuzhou university, The Southwest Research & Design Institute of the Chemical Industry etc) are all cooperate manufacturers research and develop honeycomb catalyst.

At present, the main raw material of catalyst is Titanium Dioxide TiO and other additives, the specification usually is cross section 150mx150mm, long 1000mm~1500mm, honeycomb hole usually is square(hole size and quantity is various) , samples as below Chart 1,

SCR system basic chemical reaction processII.SCR honeycomb denitrification catalyst production technological process:

production process of scr catalyst2.1. Production process brief description

Honeycomb catalyst production mainly includes 10 steps:

1. Titanium Dioxide and minor ingredient selection (formula R&D)

2. High speed and uniformly mixing material

3. Use pre-extruder fully filters the wet materials.

4. Sent the filtered wet material to de-airing extruder for extrude forming

5. Automatic synchronized cutting machine is able to according to different length cutting the products

6. Use manipulator load the products to carton avoid its distortion.

7. Steam damping-drum drier

8. mesh-belt kiln

9. Fixed length cutting

10. Inspection and packing

2.2. Main production equipments

Main equipments for producing above SCR honeycomb catalyst are R-19 intensive mixer, TCIW-2T box feeder, TCJ-250 pre-extruder, WDQ-150 automatic cutting machine, TCJ-310 powerful extruder, WDYD-150 manipulator etc, other corollary equipment are:2X-30 vacuum pump, SK-240PT water temperature control system etc.

At present, Xiangtan weida electrical and machinery manufacturer co., Ltd through introduce Japan, American and German technology, combined their design advantage and its many years experience in extruding industry, after years of effort successfully developed a series of honeycomb catalyst making machines such as horizontal high strength de-airing extruder, synchronized cutting machine, rewrite the history which only vertical hydraulic extruder can extrude honeycomb catalyst, improve productivity largely compare to vertical extruder is discontinuous production.

Xiangtan weida electrical and machinery manufacturer co., Ltd specialized in ceramic machinery design and manufacturer, have 30 years design and manufacture experience. At the same time, the company cooperates with domestic famous university and institute for technology discussion and exchange, joint research and development, its production technology is leading in the world.
