There is provided a denitrification apparatus capable of reducing NOx from a combustion facility and preventing evaporation of a reducing liquid in a lance and an injection nozzle in the combustion facility in operation at a low load by adjusting concentration of a reducing agent, thereby achieving complete evaporation of the reducing liquid in an exhaust gas duct. The denitrification apparatus of the present invention includes: a nozzle for spraying a reducing liquid containing a reducing agent for reducing nitrogen oxides in exhaust gas discharged from a combustion facility into the exhaust gas by using a flow of gas; a gas supply unit for supplying the gas to the nozzle; a reducing liquid supply unit for supplying the reducing liquid to the nozzle; and a concentration control unit for adjusting concentration of the reducing agent on the basis of a temperature of the exhaust gas and a supply amount of the reducing liquid by supplying a diluting liquid to the reducing liquid so that the reducing agent is not vaporized in the reducing liquid supply unit.

Denitrification apparatus

A vertical downflow type flue gas denitrification apparatus which has a plurality of catalyst blocks, each incorporating a catalyst unit provided therein, is provided with a first ash accumulation baffle plate and a second ash accumulation baffle plate which are slidable into a gap between catalyst blocks adjacent to each other, and processes an exhaust gas emitted from a combustor and turned to a vertical downflow. The denitrification apparatus has a simple configuration where the ash accumulation baffle plates prevent ash or the like from being accumulated in the gap between the catalyst blocks. The thermal expansion of the ash accumulation baffle plate can be absorbed even under the operating conditions which produce a change in temperature, and charging and replacing the catalyst in the catalyst blocks are possible without on-site welding of the ash accumulation baffle plates.
