Denitrification plant
The invention relates to a device for denitrifying the flue gases of a fossil fuel-fired steam generator, especially a steam generator boiler ( 1 ) of a power plant, having apparatuses ( 10 - 12 ) for blowing a reagent effective in a predetermined temperature range into the interior ( 18 ) of the steam generator ( 1 ), which contains hot combustion gases. The device according to the invention is characterized in that the blow-in apparatuses ( 10 - 12 ) comprise a plurality of injection lances ( 10 ) arranged in spatially distributed manner and a control apparatus ( 13 ) for measuring the respective temperature distribution in the interior ( 18 ) and for selecting injection lances ( 10 ) suitable for blowing in based on the temperature distribution.
1. An apparatus for denitrification of flue gases of a fossil-fired steam generator, in particular of a steam generator boiler of a power plant, with devices ( 10 - 12 ) for injecting a reagent, active in a predetermined temperature range, into an inner space ( 18 ) of the steam generator ( 1 ) containing hot combustion gases, wherein the injection devices ( 10 - 12 ) comprise a multiplicity of injection lances ( 10 ) arranged in a spatial distribution, and also a control device ( 12 - 14 ) for determining the respective temperature distribution ( 16 ) in the inner space ( 18 ) and for selecting suitable injection lances ( 10 ) for injection on the basis of the temperature distribution ( 16 ), and wherein the control device ( 12 - 14 ) is provided for indirectly determining the temperature distribution ( 16 ) in the inner space ( 18 ) on the basis of at least one operating parameter of the steam generator ( 1 ) which is critical for the temperature distribution, wherein the control device ( 12 - 14 ) comprises an image sensor ( 14 ) detecting a flickering region ( 15 ) of at least one of the burner flames and an image evaluation device and wherein the control device ( 12 - 14 ) is provided for indirectly determining the temperature distribution ( 16 ) in the inner space ( 18 ) on the basis of the flicker frequency as an operating parameter critical for the respective temperature distribution ( 16 ).
2. The apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the control device ( 12 - 14 ) is further provided for indirectly determining the temperature distribution ( 16 ) on the basis of the load of the steam generator and/or the type of fuel used.
3. The apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the control device ( 12 - 14 ) comprises a memory in which the respective temperature distributions ( 16 ) are stored, where appropriate as a table, in relation to the particular operating parameter values.
4. The apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the control device is provided for determining the flicker frequency as the sole operating parameter.
5. The apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the control device is provided for determining a flicker frequency value averaged over the various burner planes of the steam generator.
6. The apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the control device comprises an adaptive memory system, in particular a neuronal network, provided for adding to the memory content.
