Abstract

Provided is a combustion system using a catalyst having better denitration efficiency at low temperatures, during a selective catalytic reduction reaction in which ammonia is used as a reducing agent.This combustion system comprises: a combustion device that combusts fuel; an exhaust path through which flows exhaust gas generated from the combustion of fuel in the combustion device; a dust collection device that is arranged on the exhaust path and collects soot/dust in the exhaust gas; and a denitration device that is arranged on the exhaust path and removes nitrogen oxides from the exhaust gas by means of a denitration catalyst, wherein the denitration device is arranged downstream of the dust collection device on the exhaust path, and the denitration catalyst contains vanadium oxide, has a carbon content of 0.05 wt % or more, and has a defect site in which oxygen deficiency occurs in a crystal structure.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A combustion system comprising:
a combustion device which combusts a fuel;
an exhaust channel through which exhaust gas generated by the fuel combusting in the combustion device flows;
a dust collector which is disposed in the exhaust channel, and collects ash dust in the exhaust gas; and
a denitration device which is disposed in the exhaust channel, and removes nitrogen oxides from the exhaust gas by way of a denitration catalyst,
wherein the denitration device is disposed on a downstream side of the dust collector in the exhaust channel, and
wherein the denitration catalyst contains vanadium oxide, has a carbon content of at least 0.05 wt %, and has a defect site at which an oxygen deficiency occurs in a crystal structure.

2. The combustion system according to claim 1 , wherein the combustion system further includes an air preheater disposed in the exhaust channel, and recovers heat from the exhaust gas, and
wherein the air preheater is disposed on an upstream side of the dust collector.

3. The combustion system according to claim 1 ,
wherein having a defect site at which an oxygen deficiency occurs indicates a ratio (P1/P2) of a peak intensity P2 of wavelength 494 to 549 cm −1 originating from edge-sharing 3V—Oc stretching vibration relative to a peak intensity P1 of wavelength 462 to 494 cm −1 originating from crosslinked V—O B —V bending vibration being 0.98 or less,
in infrared transmission spectrum of the denitration catalyst.

4. A combustion system comprising:
a combustion device which combusts a fuel;
an exhaust channel through which exhaust gas generated by the fuel combusting in the combustion device flows;
an air preheater which is disposed in the exhaust channel, and recovers heat from the exhaust gas; and
a denitration device which is disposed in the exhaust channel, and removes nitrogen oxides from the exhaust gas by way of a denitration catalyst,
wherein the denitration device is disposed on a downstream side of the air preheater in the exhaust channel, and
wherein the denitration catalyst contains vanadium oxide, has a carbon content of at least 0.05 wt %, and has a defect site at which an oxygen deficiency occurs in a crystal structure.

5. A combustion system comprising:
an internal combustion engine which combusts a fuel;
an exhaust channel through which exhaust gas generated by the fuel combusting in the internal combustion engine flows;
an exhaust heat recovery device which is disposed in the exhaust channel and recovers exhaust heat from exhaust gas discharged from the internal combustion engine; and
a denitration device which is disposed in the exhaust channel, and removes nitrogen oxides from the exhaust gas by way of a denitration catalyst,
wherein the denitration device is disposed on a downstream side of the exhaust heat recovery device in the exhaust channel, and
wherein the denitration catalyst contains vanadium oxide, has a carbon content of at least 0.05 wt %, and has a defect site at which an oxygen deficiency occurs in a crystal structure.

6. The combustion system according to claim 5 ,
wherein the exhaust heat recovery device includes a turbine device and an exhaust gas economizer,
wherein the exhaust gas economizer generates steam with exhaust gas discharged from the internal combustion engine and exhaust gas supplied from the turbine device as heat sources, and
wherein the turbine device conducts power generation using the exhaust gas discharged from the internal combustion engine and steam supplied from the exhaust gas economizer.
