| Abstract | Jupiter Oxygen Corporation has developed combustion technology systems using one hundred percent oxygen for coal and other fossil fuels with dramatic benefits. It virtually eliminates combustion air created NOx since ambient air is excluded, and is expected to reduce coal combustion NOx levels below 0.10 Lbs/MMBtu fuel input with properly designed combustion and burner systems. Also, it significantly reduces other greenhouse gases, except for CO2 which is highly concentrated in the flue gas making capture easy. Furthermore, it significantly reduces the amount of fossil fuel needed to create energy. Significant progress has been made in experimental investigations of oxy-fuel combustion for C02 capture purposes at the Jupiter Aluminum Combustor Research Facility. Detailed burner flame measurements have revealed insights on development and pollutant formation characteristics over a wide range of operating conditions using natural gas and coal. This study marks the first use by Jupiter Oxygen Corporation to develop and design 100% Oxygen based combustion systems. Its focus is on evaluating combustion and burner system design concepts for 100% oxygen and coal combustion with and without recycled flue gas. Test results indicate that a new combustion and burner system design approach can potentially reduce NOx at boiler or furnace exit below 0.10 Lbs/MMBtu Coal input and below 0.05 Lbs/MMBtu for Natural Gas input. |
