NOx Emission Control in Gas Turbines

Abstract:

The increase, in recent years, in the size and efficiency of gas turbines burning natural gas in combined cycle has occurred against a background of tightening environmental legislation on the emission of nitrogen oxides. The higher turbine entry temperatures required for efficiency improvement tend to increase NO_Xproduction. To reduce NO_X emissions, new engine core configurations with heat management and active systems, as well as advanced combustor technology, have to be investigated. This paper reviews the various approaches adopted by the main gas turbine manufacturers which are achieving low levels of NO_X emission from natural gas combustion.
