Abstract

A combustion system operated at low cost is provided. A combustion system 1 includes a combustion device 10 that burns fuel, an exhaust line L1 through which exhaust gas flows, the exhaust gas being generated through combustion of the fuel in the combustion device 10, an air preheater 30 that is disposed in the exhaust line L1 and that recovers heat from the exhaust gas, and a denitration device 40 that is disposed in the exhaust line L1 and that removes nitrogen oxide from the exhaust gas using a denitration catalyst. The denitration device 40 is disposed downstream from the air preheater 30 in the exhaust line L1, and the denitration catalyst contains 43 wt % or more of vanadium pentoxide and has a BET specific surface area of 30 m2/g or more.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A combustion system comprising:
a combustion device that burns fuel;
an exhaust line through which exhaust gas flows, the exhaust gas being generated through combustion of the fuel in the combustion device;
an air preheater that is disposed in the exhaust line and that recovers heat from the exhaust gas; and
a denitration device that is disposed in the exhaust line and that removes nitrogen oxide from the exhaust gas using a denitration catalyst,
wherein the denitration device is disposed downstream from the air preheater in the exhaust line, and
the denitration catalyst contains 43 wt % or more of vanadium pentoxide and has a BET specific surface area of 30 m 2 /g or more.

2. The combustion system according to claim 1 , wherein in the denitration catalyst, an amount of NH 3 desorbed by NH 3 -TPD (TPD: temperature programed desorption) is 10.0 μmol/g or more.

3. The combustion system according to claim 1 or 2 , wherein the denitration device removes nitrogen oxide from the exhaust gas by a selective catalytic reduction method.

4. The combustion system according to claim 1 , wherein the fuel is natural gas.
