Abstract

Abstract The deactivation of a denitrating catalyst that is caused by exhaust gas dust in a boiler, a furnace or the like which employs a fossil fuel, particularly pulverized coal, can be controlled with excellent results by adding to a fuel at a mill installed in a coal fuel line or at a point upstream of the mill at least one iron compound in a small amount in the form of an aqueous solution, or a powder or water slurry containing coal particles, or in case of employing pulverized coal or heavy oil as a fuel by adding a mixture of an iron compound, a vanadium compound and a tungsten compound, said mixture being in the form of powder, a water slurry or an oil slurry of powder, or an aqueous solution.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 111 words
A method of controlling the deactivation of a deni­trating catalyst comprising controlling the deactivation of a denitrating catalyst that is caused by an exhaust gas dust in a boiler, a furnace or the like which employs pulverized coal as fuel by adding to a fuel at a mill installed in a coal fuel line or at a point upstream of the mill at least one iron compound in an amount of 5 to 2000 ppm (in terms of Fe₂O₃) on the basis of the amount of pulverized coal in the form of an aqueous solution, or a powder or water slurry containing coal particles capable of passing through a 100-­mesh screen.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 111 words
A method of controlling the deactivation of a deni­trating catalyst comprising controlling the deactivation of a denitrating catalyst that is caused by an exhaust gas dust in a boiler, a furnace or the like which employs pulverized coal as fuel by adding to a fuel at a mill installed in a coal fuel line or at a point upstream of the mill at least one iron compound in an amount of 5 to 2000 ppm (in terms of Fe₂O₃) on the basis of the amount of pulverized coal in the form of an aqueous solution, or a powder or water slurry containing coal particles capable of passing through a 100-­mesh screen.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 12 words
The method according to Claim 1 wherein said iron compounds are water-soluble.
Claim 4
Independent Claim 149 words
A method of controlling the deactivation of a deni­trating catalyst comprising controlling the deactivation of a denitrating catalyst that is caused by an exhaust gas dust in a boiler, a furnace or the like which employs pulverized coal or heavy oil as fuel by adding to a fuel a mixture of at least one iron compound in an amount of 5 to 200 ppm (in terms of Fe₂O₃) and at least one compound selected from the group consisting of vanadium compounds in an amount of 2 to 50 ppm (in terms of V₂O₅) and tungsten compounds in an amount of 1 to 15 ppm (in terms of WO₃), said mixture being in the form of powder having an average particle diameter of 5 microns or less, a water slurry or an oil slurry of powder having an average particle diameter of 3 microns or less, or an aqueous solution.
Claim 5
Independent Claim 149 words
A method of controlling the deactivation of a deni­trating catalyst comprising controlling the deactivation of a denitrating catalyst that is caused by an exhaust gas dust in a boiler, a furnace or the like which employs pulverized coal or heavy oil as fuel by adding to a fuel a mixture of at least one iron compound in an amount of 5 to 200 ppm (in terms of Fe₂O₃) and at least one compound selected from the group consisting of vanadium compounds in an amount of 2 to 50 ppm (in terms of V₂O₅) and tungsten compounds in an amount of 1 to 15 ppm (in terms of WO₃), said mixture being in the form of powder having an average particle diameter of 5 microns or less, a water slurry or an oil slurry of powder having an average particle diameter of 3 microns or less, or an aqueous solution.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 85 words
The method according to Claim 3 wherein the mixture of at least one iron compound and at least one compound selected from the group consisting of vanadium compounds and tungsten compounds is added in a boiler, a furnace or the like which employs pulverized coal as fuel by adding it to a mill installed in a coal fuel line or at a point upstream of the mill, said mixture being in the form of powder, a water slurry, an oil slurry, or an aqueous solution.
