The boiler flue gas volume inO2:CO2combustion can be reduced by over 80% compared to air fired combustion.Oxygen-enhanced combustion while keeping local fuel rich conditionssignificantly reduces the fraction of fuel nitrogen converted to NOx (1,2).Recently, 70% reduction of NOx emissions in O2:CO2 combustion modescompared tobaseline air fired cases (3, 4) has been observed. Considering that muchlowerflue gas volume would significantly reduce the load to flue gasdesulphurization (FGD) units, thereby increasing FGD unit efficiency andlowering costs, oxygen:flue gas recycle combustion (OxyCombustion) appearstobe a multi-pollutant control approach for both new plants and as retrofitoptions for existing coal-fired boilers. Proposals are invited toexperimentally demonstrate the multi-pollutant control potential ofoxygen:fluegas recycle combustion using simulated flue gas. Mechanistic insights,boilerretrofit design options, and maximum oxygen enrichment attainable usingtoday?sboiler and ancillary materials are subjects ofinterest.
