Cogeneration in the Netherlands

摘要

In the previous two articles, the growing interest in carbon dioxide (C02) fertilizing has already been discussed. Particularly with vegetable crops and flowers, CO_2 fertilizing will improve production. But while the use of CHP flue gases has advantages, it also disadvantages. In contrast to flue gases from a traditional boiler, flue gases from a CHP system contain a high concentration of nitric oxide (NOx). Where the flue gases of the traditional boiler can be used directly for CO_2 fertilizing, flue gases from the CHP should be cleaned. Although new methods have been introduced, the standard method today is the use of a Selective Catalytic Reduction system (SCR).
