In the first part, we’ll focus on new installations and share advice on how to get your technical specs right.

In the current context, legislation concerning emissions, and in particular NOx, is becoming increasingly strict. As a consequence, many industrial sites are considering installing an SCR deNOx plant.

But where to start? What criteria to take into account, how to ensure that the technical specifications are written in an optimal way, and how to make sure that initial cost optimization does not jeopardize further operation? We’ll show you the way.

In the second part, we’ll focus on existing SCR deNOx installations and on how to cut costs.

Experience is clear: with an appropriate global approach, total cost of ownership can be reduced significantly. For example, postponing catalyst replacement is entirely possible. Also, by addressing a range of aspects of the operation and maintenance, it is often possible to increase overall performance.

We will examine not only operation and maintenance aspects, but also global asset management strategies. Finally we’ll screen together a series of cost-effective tailor-made catalyst solutions.

As an international expert in flue gas treatment, especially denitrification, Xavier Henry specializes in SCR systems in a wide range of applications, including natural gas combined cycle plants, coal-fired plants, petroleum refineries, waste incinerators, and glass and cement producers. He also has extensive experience with SCR retrofit, catalyst management, field services, troubleshooting and asset management.
