Kevin Toupin Director, Boiler Equipment at Babcock Power, Inc. / Riley Power, Inc., discussed conversion of coal-fired power plants to biomass-fired ones and the emission and combustion ramifications. He pointed out that a tail end SCR system using the concept similar to regenerative thermal oxidizers has solved the NOx problem. These RSCR systems are operating on four plants and are reducing 80 percent of the NOx and 60 percent of the CO, when the catalyst is operating at 400°F-500°F.
