Abstract Catalytic combustion can inhibit the formation of CO and NOx, and greatly reduce the concentration of unburned alkanes. The hardness of tap water in Beijing is too high. In order to test whether the modified fly ash can reduce its hardness, clay, shale and fly ash bricks were prepared by catalytic combustion furnace. The results show that the fly ash brick has a great influence on Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺ in water, increasing Ca²⁺ concentration by 59.96% and decreasing Mg²⁺ concentration by 41.22%. Thus modified fly ash could not reduce hardness of water but could be used as More >

Abstract This article discussed compressive strength, water absorption, thermal conductivity and Frost resistance of building glazed tile of fly ash added in order to solve the problem of shortage of raw materials in the production. According to the technology of catalytic combustion furnace, glazed tiles of fly ash added with pure solid texture and glamorous colors were obtained by radiation heat treatment. It also greatly reduced pollutant emissions. The suitable proportion is about 30% of fly ash from these tests and the molding pressure is 20MPa. The utilization of fly ash not only alleviates the environmental More >

Abstract This article discussed the lifetime of catalyst on cost effect for catalytic combustion furnace and applications of pottery heated by catalytic combustion furnace in purification water. The time of start-up process rises with the increase of the number of ignition. The catalyst sintering was remarkable. By reducing the number of ignition and adjusting the temperature rise uniformly in the furnace, the efficient utilization of thermal energy could be realized to saving production cost and extending the lifetime of catalyst. With exquisite and even-textured surface the pottery had striking purification effect on water. The water purification More >

Abstract This article discussed the radiation and pollutant emissions characteristics of the catalytic combustion furnace based the combustion of lean natural gas-air mixtures in catalytic honeycomb monoliths and the influence of its exhaust gas on schefflera plants growth by means of theory and experiments. The radiation efficiency of the monolith alone varied from approximately 20% to 40%. The glazed tiles heated by the catalytic combustion furnace are more fine and glossy than that of conventional ones. Schefflera plants in experimental group in a greenhouse filling with catalytic combustion exhaust gas. On contrary, schefflera plants in control More >

Abstract This article discussed exhaust gas temperature and pollutant emissions characteristics of the combustion of rich natural gas-air mixtures in Pd metal based honeycomb monoliths burner during the period of start-up process. The burner needs to be ignited by gas phase combustion with the excessive air coefficient (a) at 1.3. The chemistry at work in the monoliths was then investigated using the stagnation point flow reactor or SPFR. The experimental results in catalytic monolith can be explained from SPFR. The exhaust gas temperature and pollutant emissions were measured by thermocouple K of diameter 0.5 and the More >

Abstract This article discussed the thermal efficiency, stability and pollutant emissions characteristics of the combustion of lean natural gas-air mixtures in Pd metal based honeycomb monoliths by means of experiments on a practical burner V. The chemistry at work in the monoliths was then investigated by the stagnation point flow reactor( SPFR), a fundamental experimental reactor. It was found that catalytic combustion inhibited the extent of gas-phase oxidation and increased the surface temperature of homogeneous ignition. According to the applications of catalytic combustion in the condenser boiler, the data of catalytic combustion condenser boiler V were More >
