Abstract

AbstractUrea as the source of ammonia for the flue gas conditioning/NOx reduction system in thermal power plant has the obvious advantages that no ammonia shipping, handling and storage is required. The process of this invention minimizes the risks and hazards associated with the transport, storage and use of anhydrous and aqueous ammonia, as ammonia is a highly volatile noxious material. But no such rapid urea conversion process is available as per requirement of high conversion in shorter time, so here we study the catalytic hydrolysis of urea for fast conversion in a semi‐batch reactor. The catalysts used in this study are: TiO2, fly ash, mixture of Ni and Fe and Al2O3. Number of experiments was carried out in a semi‐batch reactor at different catalyst doses, temperatures and concentration of urea solution from 10 to 30% by weight and equilibrium study has been made.
