High-volume, low-VOC-concentration air streams are produced by a broad range ofindustries. The most widely used conventional treatment technology is carbonadsorption. However, carbon adsorption produces dilute aqueous waste streams asa secondary waste, is difficult to adapt to particulate-containing streams, andis too expensive to be applied by some industries. Wet scrubbing the air is alow-cos ...

Combustion in boiler and fluids heaters consumes approximately 5 TCF of gas peryear and generates approximately 350,000 tons of NOx. To meet ambient airquality standards, particularly those for ozone, low-cost ultra-low NOx burnersare needed for these applica-tions. This will reduce the costs and increase thecompetitiveness of industry that might otherwise be forced to use the expensiveSelective ...

APPROXIMATELY 1.3 MILLION TONS OF HYDROCARBON VAPORS ARE RELEASED ANNUALLY IN PETROLEUM STORAGE AND TRANSFER OPERATIONS. THIS PROPOSAL DESCRIBES THE DESIGN AND LABORATORY DEMONSTRATION OF A PILOT MEMBRANE SYSTEM ABLE TO CONCENTRATE AND RECOVER THESE VAPORS FROM STORAGE TANK OFF GASES. IN THE PHASE I PROGRAM, EXISTING MEMBRANES WILL BE EVALUATED WITH MODEL GAS MIXTURES IN THE LABORATORY. THESE DATA ...

EFFECTIVE, LOW-COST AND RETROFITTABLE NOX EMISSION CONTROLS ARE NEEDED TO ALLOW THE WIDESPREAD USE OF COAL WHILE NOT ADVERSELY IMPACTING THE ENVIRONMENT. REBURNING, OR IN-FURNACE NOX REDUCTION (IFNR) IS A RELATIVELY ECONOMICAL AND RETROFITTABLE NOX REDUCTION TECHNIQUE. HOWEVER, THIS TECHNIQUE IS RESTRICTED IN APPLICATION BY THE LIMITED TIME WITHIN THE FURNACE FOR IFNR FUEL DISPERSION, REACTION WIT ...

A NEW ADSORPTION--CATALYTIC COMBUSTION SYSTEM WITH APPLICATION TO REMOVAL OF VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUND (VOC) EMISSIONS FROM INDUSTRIAL PROCESSES AND COMMERCIAL OPERATIONS ESPECIALLY WHERE LOW CONCENTRATIONS OF VOC ARE PRESENT IN HIGH FLOWS OF OFF-GAS WILL BE INVESTIGATED IN THIS DEMONSTRATION PROGRAM. THIS SYSTEM WILL HAVE THE BENEFITS OF LOW EQUIPMENT COSTS, SIMPLE OPERATION, LOW ENERGY UTILIZATI ...
