A system for vaporizing and optionally decomposing a reagent, such as aqueous ammonia or urea, which is useful for NOx reduction, includes a cyclonic decomposition duct, wherein the duct at its inlet end is connected to an air inlet port and a reagent injection lance. The air inlet port is in a tangential orientation to the central axis of the duct. The system further includes a metering valve for controlling the reagent injection rate. A method for vaporizing and optionally decomposing a reagent includes providing a cyclonic decomposition duct which is connected to an air inlet port and an injection lance, introducing hot gas through the air inlet port in a tangential orientation to the central axis of the duct, injecting the reagent axially through the injection lance into the duct; and adjusting the reagent injection rate through a metering valve.

Cyclonic injector and method for reagent gasification and decomposition in a hot gas stream

A method for reducing NOx emissions from a lean burn combustor equipped with a NOx reducing exhaust catalyst, includes at least the following steps: (i) generating a computer based model of the geometry of an exhaust system of the combustor; (ii) computing at least one of flue gas velocity profiles and mass flow stream lines for exhaust gas flow through the exhaust system; (iii) inputting injector data comprising at least droplet size and velocity; (iv) modeling droplet trajectories for a plurality of injector locations; (v) modeling at least one flow conditioning device in the exhaust system; and (vi) manipulating the computer based model until an injector location is identified that provides a predicted root mean square (RMS) of reagent at the face of the catalyst that is less than 15%.
