A method of continuously introducing additive, which is conveyed by gaseous and/or liquid carriers, into a turbulent reaction gas flow in the combustion chamber of a steam generator having dry ash withdrawal for selective removal, in a dry manner, of environmentally harmful gaseous noxious materials

A method of continuously introducing additive, which is conveyed by gaseous and/or liquid carriers, into a turbulent reaction gas flow in the combustion chamber of a steam generator having dry ash withdrawal for selective removal, in a dry manner, of environmentally harmful gaseous noxious materials, such as sulfur, chlorine, and chlorine compounds, which are contained in a hot reaction gas flow which results after a complete or incomplete flame combustion of solid, liquid, or gaseous fuels. Depending upon the additive introduced, heat is stored and/or used for decomposition reactions. The additive, is first introduced at one or more input locations, due to locally different pressure conditions in the combustion chamber, into one or more recirculation flows which are within the system and are closed. The additive is subsequently withdrawn from these recirculation flows and is introduced into the reaction gas flow.

A method for removing environmentally harmful gaseous material in the form of sulfur, chlorine and fluorine compounds contained in a hot reaction gas flow in the combustion chamber of a steam generator, wherein the combustion chamber has a side wall area in which a plurality of fuel inlets are posit

A method for removing environmentally harmful gaseous material in the form of sulfur, chlorine and fluorine compounds contained in a hot reaction gas flow in the combustion chamber of a steam generator, wherein the combustion chamber has a side wall area in which a plurality of fuel inlets are positioned and a funnel-shaped portion which converges for dry ash removal, and wherein the combustion chamber further includes at least one inlet through the funnel-shaped portion which inlet is adjacent to a closed recirculation flow within the funnel portion, the method comprising the steps of: during burning in the combustion chamber, introducing through the inlet a pulverous additive selected from the group consisting of calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, dolomite and reactive metal oxide and metal hydroxide compounds; entraining the additive in the recirculation flow to intermix with and contact fuel burning in the combustion chamber to thereby interact with the burning fuel and combine sulfur, chlorine and fluorine compounds in the burning fuel with the pulverous additive to thereby remove the sulfur, chlorine and fluorine compounds from the burning fuel as ash, and removing the sulfur, chlorine and fluorine compounds from the combustion chamber in solid form upon removing the ash therefrom.
