In this informative webinar, CORMETECH’s Director of Account Management, Philip Elliott, will discuss best practices for maintaining your SCR, improving NOx reduction performance, avoiding unplanned downtime, and reducing lifetime cost of your SCR system. Specific topics addressed will include:

  • Field Services Support

    • SCR Catalyst Inspection – Physical Inspection Procedure

    • Catalyst Testing - Pilot Testing and Audits of Catalyst Activity

    • AIG Inspection and Tuning - Optimizing DeNOx and Reducing Ammonia Slip

  • Ash Mitigation

    • LPA Screens – Stopping LPA in its Tracks

    • Acoustic Cleaners - High Energy, Low Frequency Sound Waves that Resonates Ash Particles

    • Ash Sweepers - Displacing Ash Piles by Discharging Compressed Air

  • In-situ Ice Blasting - Pluggage Removal Technique for (SCR) Catalyst

  • Catalyst Management Services - Determining an Optimum Catalyst Replacement Plan

  • SCR Catalyst Regeneration - Restoring Catalyst Activity Back to the Original OEM Level

Below are some of the questions discussed during the webinar:

  • We have a mercury oxidation catalyst; can you test if my catalyst is still oxidizing mercury?

  • We have heard of the use of CO2 ice blasting for HRSG surfaces. Does this apply to catalyst surfaces, lances, vanes, etc.?

  • For high dust applications, do you recommend honeycomb or plate catalyst?

  • Will increasing sonic horn cleaning frequency have any impact on unplugging partially plugged catalyst?

  • How do you regenerate catalysts?

  • Is the ice CO2 cleaning applicable to plate-type catalyst? And, is the time for cleaning similar to the honeycomb boxes?

  • What is the effect of chlorides on the stability of the catalyst?

  • If a unit is operating in "enhanced mode" (lower SCR temp), but the unit cannot come back up to full load for days or even weeks, can the ABS still be burned off later?
