Bill Gretta, PE, Engineering Director for Concord Environmental, an expert in SCR technology, will present an informative webinar that provides actionable strategies for:

Understanding what will improve your SCR’s performance

  • Reducing ammonia consumption and ammonia slip through AIG tuning

  • Understanding SCR catalyst deactivation and the importance of regular testing

  • Increasing efficiency and power output by lowering system ΔP

  • The impact of load cycling on the SCR Catalyst

  • Combined Cycle case study presentation

In this webinar you will also learn:

  • How to develop a PM inspection plan for SCR systems

  • The Importance of regular SCR and CO catalyst testing

  • Design reviews of your system

  • Using CFD modeling to enhance performance

  • Best practices for cleaning your catalyst and AIG

Below are some of the questions discussed during the webinar:

  • Will Concord assume responsibility for SCR catalyst management, or do you leave that to the catalyst manufacturer?

  • What types of equipment do you provide SCR systems for?

  • In terms of the benefits of tuning valves at grade vs. up the side of the unit, is it true that although it is more cumbersome to tune valves up the side of the HRSG, once initial tuning is complete, future tuning is rare? This might make it more attractive to take the low-cost option?

  • What is the typical guaranteed lifetime for the catalysts? Are there any extended guarantees?

  • What are typical catalyst poisons? Does the catalyst deactivate without poisons?

  • What should the delta between the permit limit and the contract limit be?
