The invention claimed is: 1. An apparatus for controlling NOx emissions comprising: a chamber having a wall surface and an interior; a flue gas entrance and a flue gas exit for a flue gas to enter and exit said interior of said chamber; a gas quenching zone in which the temperature of the gas can be lowered; an ozone injection and retention zone in said chamber; and a liquid spray zone including at least one spray nozzle for spraying a liquid towards the wall surface so that a portion of said ozone injection and retention zone is substantially free of liquid droplets. 2. An apparatus according to claim 1, further including: an ozone supply; an ozone injection nozzle to inject a predetermined amount of ozone into said ozone injection and retention zone; a liquid supply in said liquid spray zone; a gas quenching liquid supply; and at least one gas quenching nozzle. 3. An apparatus according to claim 2, wherein said liquid spray zone is located above said ozone injection and retention zone, and said flue gas entrance is below said liquid spray zone. 4. An apparatus according to claim 2, wherein said liquid spray zone of said apparatus is located below said ozone injection and retention zone, and said flue gas entrance and said gas quenching zone are above said liquid spray zone. 5. An apparatus according to claim 2, wherein said liquid comprises a calcium, magnesium, or sodium reagent. 6. An apparatus according to claim 2, wherein said flue gas is quenched to a temperature of below 200° F. in said gas quenching zone. 7. An apparatus according to claim 2, wherein said gas quenching nozzle sprays a liquid towards the wall surface, so that a portion of said ozone injection and retention zone is substantially free of liquid droplets. 8. An apparatus for controlling NOx emissions comprising: a chamber having a wall surface and an interior; a flue gas entrance and a flue gas exit for a flue gas to enter and exit said interior of said chamber; a gas quenching zone in which the temperature of the gas can be lowered; an ozone injection and retention zone in said chamber; and a liquid spray zone in said chamber, said gas quenching zone including at least one spray nozzle for spraying a liquid towards the wall surface, so that a portion of said ozone injection and retention zone is substantially free of liquid droplets. 9. An apparatus according to claim 8, further including: an ozone supply; an ozone injection nozzle to inject a predetermined amount of ozone into said ozone injection and retention zone; a liquid supply in said liquid spray zone; a gas quenching liquid supply; and at least one gas quenching nozzle. 10. An apparatus according to claim 9, wherein said liquid spray zone is located above said ozone injection and retention zone, and said flue gas entrance is below said liquid spray zone. 11. An apparatus according to claim 9, wherein said liquid spray zone of said apparatus is located below said ozone injection and retention zone, and said flue gas entrance and said gas quenching zone are above said liquid spray zone. 12. An apparatus according to claim 9, wherein said flue gas is quenched to a temperature of below 200° F. in said gas quenching zone. 13. An apparatus according to claim 9, wherein said gas quenching nozzle sprays a liquid towards the wall surface, so that said ozone and injection and retention zone is substantially free of liquid droplets. 14. A combustion system comprising: a boiler; and an apparatus for controlling NOx emissions comprising: a chamber having a wall surface and an interior; a flue gas entrance and a flue gas exit for a flue gas to enter and exit said interior of said chamber; a gas quenching zone in which the temperature of the gas can be lowered; an ozone injection and retention zone in said chamber; and a liquid spray zone including at least one spray nozzle for spraying a liquid towards the wall surface so that a portion of said ozone injection and retention zone is substantially free of liquid droplets. 15. An apparatus according to claim 14, further including: an ozone supply; an ozone injection nozzle to inject a predetermined amount of ozone into said ozone injection and retention zone; a liquid supply in said liquid spray zone; a gas quenching liquid supply; and at least one gas quenching nozzle. 16. An apparatus according to claim 15, wherein said liquid spray zone is located above said ozone injection and retention zone, and said flue gas entrance is below said liquid spray zone. 17. An apparatus according to claim 15, wherein said liquid spray zone of said apparatus is located below said ozone injection and retention zone, and said flue gas entrance and said gas quenching zone are above said liquid spray zone. 18. An apparatus according to claim 15, wherein said gas quenching nozzle sprays a liquid towards the wall surface, so that a portion of said ozone injection and retention zone is substantially free of liquid droplets. 19. A combustion system comprising: a boiler; and an apparatus for controlling NOx emissions comprising: a chamber having a wall surface and an interior; a flue gas entrance and a flue gas exit for a flue gas to enter and exit said interior of said chamber; a gas quenching zone in which the temperature of the gas can be lowered; an ozone injection and retention zone in said chamber; and a liquid spray zone in said chamber, said gas quenching zone including at least one spray nozzle for spraying a liquid towards the wall surface so that a portion of said ozone injection and retention zone is substantially free of liquid droplets. 20. An apparatus according to claim 2, wherein said apparatus has a height ranging from 50-120 feet, and a diameter ranging from 1-50 feet. 21. An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said apparatus includes three spray nozzles. 22.
