Measurement of the NOx reduction effect on food wastewater during waste incineration

Incineration is the most effective method for reducing the increasing waste volume. However, as the pollutants generated during incineration may cause secondary pollution, blocking them in advance is necessary.

Zusammenfassung:Incineration is the most effective method for reducing the increasing waste volume. However, as the pollutants generated during incineration may cause secondary pollution, blocking them in advance is necessary. During incineration, prevention facilities are operated to reduce the amount of pollutants. Conventional selective non-catalytic reduction (SNCR) reduces nitrogen oxides (NOx) by injecting ammonia and urea as reducing agents. In this study, the NOx reduction effect on food wastewater (FW) was examined. In addition, the removal efficiency was compared at different concentrations of urea mixed with FW. When different concentrations of urea were injected in SNCR facilities A, B and C, NOx removal efficiencies of up to 75% were observed; with FW injection only, removal efficiency was 56%; and when both urea and FW were injected, removal efficiency was up to 79%. Although FW showed a lower NOx removal efficiency than urea, injecting both increased the efficiency. In addition, when air pollutant emissions and the incinerator temperature were analysed, we found that they could be managed without exceeding the allowed limits. However, for the injection and incineration of reducing agents, the characteristics of the incineration facility and reducing agents must be considered
