摘要:
The present invention provides a process for minimizing the emission of particulate matter and precursors thereof from a flue gas stream of an engine comprising particulate matter and precursors thereof and at least one gaseous component, which process comprises the steps of: a. Obtaining a flue gas stream of an engine comprising particulate matter and precursors thereof; b. Increasing the moisture content of the stream by contacting the same with a first aqueous medium in an amount and at a temperature at which at least 50% of the water content of the first aqueous medium is evaporated; whereby a moisture laden gas stream, optionally containing suspension droplets, is formed; c. Cooling the moisture laden gas stream whereby suspension droplets are formed; and d. Applying a centrifugal force to the moisture laden gas stream and to the suspension droplets to effect the swirling thereof; whereby a treated gaseous stream and an aqueous stream are formed; and wherein the content of particulate matter in the treated gaseous stream is reduced by at least 50% compared with that in the hot gas stream as measured by cooling to about 50° C. with no further treatment and wherein the centrifugal force in step d is characterized in that the velocity of the moisture laden gas stream is between 20 m/sec and 120 m/sec.
摘要:
A method for low-contamination generation of energy comprising: (a) forming a gas mixture by mixing a treated gaseous effluent stream and air; (b) introducing the gas mixture and fuel at a given gas to fuel ratio into at least one diesel engine (3); (c) burning the fuel in the diesel engine to generate energy and a flue gas stream comprising particulate matter (PM), and nitrogen oxides (NOx); (d) treating at least a portion of the flue gas stream with an aqueous stream in a cyclone unit (27) comprising a housing defined by a cylindrical peripheral wall (2) and provided with at least one inlet opening (10) for receiving flue gas and at least one inlet opening for receiving fluids thereinto and with at least one swirling means, whereby a treated gaseous effluent stream and an aqueous effluent stream are formed; (e) emitting a portion of the treated gaseous effluent stream to form an emitted portion; (f) using a portion of the treated gaseous effluent stream to form the gas mixture, and (g) repeating steps (a) through (f) multiple times.
