Policy Drivers: Tightening Industrial Emissions Regulations The global industrial sector is experiencing unprecedented regulatory pressure to optimize combustion efficiency and reduce emissions. The European Union's revised Industrial Emissions Directive (IED 2024/1785), effective August 4, 2024, mandates stricter requirements for Large Combustion Plants (LCPs) including gas turbines and boilers ...
In the Philippines, charcoal, commonly known as "uling," has long been a staple fuel for cooking, especially in rural areas and among those who prefer the authentic, smoky flavor it imparts to food. Traditionally, uling is produced through a laborintensive process involving the partial burning of wood or coconut shells in large pits. However, with advancements in technology and increasing ...
With the growing urgency to find sustainable energy sources, plastic fuel oil, derived from waste plastic through pyrolysis, has emerged as a promising alternative. This oil offers an innovative way to convert non-recyclable plastics into usable fuel, contributing to waste management and energy production. But to fully appreciate its potential, it’s essential to explore the thermal ...
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a potential risk for residents. It is colorless, odorless, and highly toxic. CO poisoning occurs when fuel or gas combustion of residential gas furnaces and boilers is incomplete, leading to the production of the harmful CO gas. In residential spaces, CO can leak into home living spaces through exhaust systems, posing a significant health risk to occupants. According to ...
Because of this, the gear is vital for that recovery and reuse of biomass waste. Top Features to Think about within A Charcoal Making Machine 1. Safety and Security Because it is such a large investment, seek one with both safety measures and a secure design. ...
Customer: Any industry having a stake in improved combustion technologies Material measured: Combustion flue gases Installation: At the boiler outlet Function: Reliable and accurate monitoring of O2 and CO for combustion control optimization Application Combustion has a number of outputs such as the ash and the emission to the atmosphere of flue gas. Before the flue gas cleaning system, ...

However, they are currently irreplaceable within many HP processes – so they warrant the highest levels of understanding and care in their operation and control. Recent improvements in burner technology to reduce NOx emissions require closer monitoring of the process, as newer burners often operate under narrower process control conditions ...
As part of a larger infrastructure upgrade project at Royal Darwin Hospital, CCM Energy Solutions were elected by the primary contractor (O'Donnell Griffin) to supply two new Limpsfield high-efficiency burners for the two main John Thompson boilers which provide steam to the hospital. In addition, new Autoflame Mk7 combustion control systems were incorporated into the design, along with in-situ ...
As background, new NSPS OOOOa (QuadOa) regulations were announced on June 3, 2016 that affected Enclosed Combustion Devices (a.k.a Combustors) used as an air emissions control device in storage vessels/tanks for upstream and midstream Oil &Gas facilities. ...
The available information on combustion, flow control, treatment and environmental compliance for gas turbines and reciprocating engines is doubling every few years. It is now more challenging than climbing Mt. Everest to find the most current and relevant information. Rapid developments include zero liquid discharge (ZLD) technologies, repairable valves, high efficiency air inlet filters, ...
Rönnskär plant NEW BOLIDEN is the third largest copper metals supplier in Europe and handles all process stages from mining via smelting until recycling for copper, zinc and other valuable metals. The Rönnskär plant located in Skelleftehamn in northern Sweden houses one of the largest copper smelters of its kind in the world. Beside copper zinc, clinker, lead and precious ...
Control functions Landfill gas and combustion air quantities are adjusted for individual requirements, according to pressure ratios, residual oxygen content of the exhaust gas, etc. Control loop CL 3: Surplus combustion In every landfill gas utilisation system, the flare functions as an important safety element for all ...
Each grate zone was equipped with its own independently controlled primary air fan. The combustion control system was integrated and optimised with the system for the entire plant allowing the best possible operational practices. ...
The waste incineration plant UTO Uvrier is situated in the south western part of Switzerland. The Association which controls the plant was established in 1969 and treats waste from 44 municipalities with a combined population of 170,000 inhabitants. The principal task of UTO Uvrier is the thermal heat recovery from urban and industrial waste. Apart from this, UTO also treats other types of waste ...
Konolt manages its energy output using RUF briquetting machinery Timber processors Konold are improving their energy balance with the help of their RUF briquetting machine. Wood waste is being pressed into briquettes to create a uniform combustible material. The heat they produce is then used for process heating and to heat their premises, with the residual heat being used to generate ...
Type HOFGAS®- Smarty S Commissioning 2002 Site Nurmijärvi (FI) Situation An accurate estimation of the landfill gas production will support the operator at the Nurmijärvi landfill site in planning the final gas collection and degassing system. A mobile degassing plant was installed to measure the quantity and quality of the landfill gas for a 1-2 year period. HOFSTETTER’s Task ...
