Reduction Of Acid Rain And Ozone Depletion Precursors

US Patent:
5645805, Jul 8, 1997
Filed:
Jun 19, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/491751
Inventors:
Klaus Heinrich Oehr - Surrey, CA
Girard A. Simons - Lynnfield MA
Jiahua Zhou - Vancouver, CA
Assignee:
Dynamotive Corporation - Vancouver
International Classification:
B01D 5360, C01B 2100, C10L 1000
US Classification:
4232391
Abstract:
A method of reducing acid emissions and ozone deletion precursors from a flue gas produced by the combustion of sulphur-or nitrogen-containing fuel or acid emissions and ozone deletion precursors from chemical plants. The method comprises introducing into a flue containing the gas, an additive derived from the chemical reaction of pyrolysis liquor with an alkaline earth metal compound in the presence of an oxidant. This reaction produces a hydrophobic/hydrophilic mixture containing a plurality of thermolabile alkaline earth metal compounds. These compounds are able to decompose at flue gas temperature to produce an alkaline compound able to react with sulphur dioxide and oxides of nitrogen to eliminate them from the gas.

Reduction Of Nitrogen Oxides

US Patent:
5817282, Oct 6, 1998
Filed:
Jul 22, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/681145
Inventors:
Desmond Radlein - Waterloo, CA
Girard Simons - Lynnfield MA
Klaus H. Oehr - Surey, CA
Joe Zhou - Vancouver, CA
Assignee:
Dynamotive Technologies Corporation - Vancouver
International Classification:
C10L 900, B01D 5356
US Classification:
423235
Abstract:
A method is provided for reducing the nitrogen oxide content of a flue gas produced by the combustion of fuel by introducing a nitrogen oxide removal agent into either the nitrogen oxide contaminated flue gas or the fuel to be combusted. The nitrogen oxide removal agent is the reaction product of a carbon compound in a pyrolysis liquor and a nitrogen compound such as ammonia, ammonium hydroxide or urea. The carbon compound is selected from carboxylic acids, phenols, esters, aldehydes and ketones. The pyrolysis liquor is derived from a feed stock containing cellulose, lignin or starch.
