Development of Stable Isotopic Ratio Measurement - Apportioning of Fuel and Thermal NOx
Abstract:
This document is a report for the project titled 'Development of Stable Isotopic Ratio Measurement - Apportioning of Fuel and Thermal NOx'.
The main aims of the project have been to develop a nitrogen-stable isotope measurement technique for NOx and to ascertain whether it can be used to determine the relative contributions of fuel and thermal NOx during coal combustion at high temperatures. Suitable substrates for adsorbing sufficiently high concentrations of NOx from flue gas streams to facilitate the reliable measurement of the nitrogen stable isotope ratios were developed, the substrates encompassing both manganese oxide supported on zirconia (MnOy-ZrO2) and iron supported on active carbon (Fe/AC, first milestone completed October 2001).
