Gas analysis for the energy sector is essential in today’s rapidly evolving global energy landscape, where efficiency, safety, and regulatory compliance are non-negotiable. From conventional power plants to renewable energy systems and hydrogen production facilities, precise gas monitoring supports system integrity and performance optimisation. Effective gas analysis ensures that energy ...
Powering the world's largest annual military air show is no mean feat. With over 200,000 people attending the event, including members of the Royal Family, and 253 aircraft from 25 nations at this year’s show, 2023 was no exception. In this case study, we will explore the challenges we faced at an event on this scale as well as the solutions and savings we provided to contribute towards ...
Years ago, before exhaust emissions were a concern, the natural gas engines used mainly by the natural gas industry were designed to run with excess air. The air-fuel ratio controllers were mechanical devices that were not very accurate and sometimes not even used. ...
Nitrogen oxide (NOx) causes significant impacts on the environment and human health, and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) is the most toxic and prevalent form of NOx in the atmosphere. Its removal and catalytic degradation into non-harmful species (i.e., N2) are thus important challenges. A great deal of effort has been devoted to developing catalysts for deNOx processes with a focus on NO reduction from ...
BImSchV and and can already reliably reduce the NOx emissions below the limit value of 0,1 g/Nm³ which will be mandatory from 1.1.2025 on. The CHP units can be equipped with the SCR catalyst right away or be delivered fully prepared for the equipment with an SCR catalyst later on. The emitted NOx-values are measured continuously, logged very 10 seconds in ...
Abstract The present paper describes the steps followed to develop a detailed and reliable combustion modelling procedure whose application as major engineering design tool supported AC-Boilers (ACB), a major Italian boiler manufacturer, in routing its products development to highly efficient burners for power generation purposes, while adopting a significantly reduced time to market. In 2018, in ...

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 ...
ERG owned company Beverley Environmental are often called upon to provide complex and dynamic solutions to clients’ environmental emissions problems. Application Through their European project team, Nigeria Liquid Natural Gas Company (NLNG) were looking for a solid waste incinerator to handle their domestic solid waste (and looking for advice on how to handle an Amine contaminated aqueous ...
End-of-life tires are a challenging type of waste since they are difficult to shred and are expensive to treat and get rid of. However, tire derived fuel TDF is an extremely good alternative to the traditional fuels used in cement kilns, like oil, coal, and petroleum coke. The following blog presents a solution and explains how TDF can be used for heating cement kilns. The calorific value of ...

ProServe with its principles Dresser Rand has supplied, installed, commissioned and start up on Nov 2015 a very unique 2 X 780 kW gas gen sets using the flare gas at AMAPETCO company field in Ras Eldeb bay “100 Km south of Hurghada city on the red sea. These two gen sets are the first environmental friendly ones in Egypt using a catalytic convertor to reduce the NOx to less than 100 ppm. ...
The new drives are compatible with the current DCS system so the utility did not need to make any control room hardware or software changes. The register dampers are currently solenoid operated (24 V DC), but are also convertible for positioner upgrade in the event future environmental regulations force the utility to further reduce NOx output. ...
