Chapter 22.4.12 Preheating of combustion airDescriptionCombustion air is normally heated with waste heat from the primary reformer or auxiliary boilerflue-gases. The increased flame temperatures in the air preheat leads to higher NO x emissionlevels. If considerable air preheat is applied and no gas turbine waste gases can be used, a valueof 90 mg/Nm 3 ; 270 g/tonne NH 3 could be raised to 130 mg/Nm 3 ; 390 g/tonne NH 3 .Achieved environmental benefits• energy savings.Cross-media effectsIncreased NO x emissions.Operational dataNo information provided.ApplicabilityThis is an integrated technique applicable to new and existing steam reforming plants.EconomicsCost benefits.Driving force for implementationCost benefits.References to literature and example plants[3, European Commission, 1997]76 <strong>Large</strong> <strong>Volume</strong> <strong>Inorganic</strong> <strong>Chemicals</strong> – <strong>Ammonia</strong>, Acids and Fertilisers
