NOX reducer – description

  • The Nitrogen Oxide Reducer (NOR) is designed by Wärtsilä and is

b d l ti t l ti d ti (SCR) t h l Th NO based on selective catalytic reduction (SCR) technology. The NOX reducer portfolio covers Wärtsilä’s medium-speed engine portfolio for marine applications.

  • The size of the NOX Reducer is optimised in terms of modularity,

performance and costs. The typical NOX emission reduction is 90 %.

  • The main component of the NOX reducer installation is the reactor with

the catalyst inside. Other modular essential parts of NOR system are a reagent pumping unit a reagent dosing unit a control unit and an reagent pumping unit, a reagent dosing unit, a control unit and an injection unit.

NOX reduction functional principle (SCR)

Nitrogen oxides (NOX) are reduced into nitrogen (N2) and reduced into nitrogen (N2) and water vapour (H2O) using ammonia or urea at a suitable t t th f f th temperature on the surface of the catalyst.

Operating temperature ~ 300 – 450 °C 300 450 C

Main components – Urea injection and mixing

  • The injection unit feeds the optimum amount of

urea solution with air to the mixing duct g

  • Mixing duct gives the necessary time for urea

to evaporate, decompose and mix with p , p exhaust gas

  • Appropriate mixing duct arrangement ensures

pp p g g uniform flow around the injector to obtain homogeneous distribution of ammonia into the flow

  • When turned off, the injector is automatically

purged by compressed air from urea solution in order not to have urea deposits in it in order not to have urea deposits in it.

Main components – Urea pumping unit

  • The pumping unit supplies urea solution to multiple dosing units
  • In large multiple engine installations it is possible to simply increase the number
  • f pumps in order to deliver the desired amount of urea
  • All piping is made of stainless steel
  • Preferably accommodated close to the urea tank
