During the typical combustion process (Figure 4), air is drawn into the gas turbine air inlet and is compressed by the
For combustion, the gas turbine requires approximately
In addition to the conventional combustion system, Solar’s proprietary SoLoNOx dry emissions system reduces pollution by limiting the formation of nitrous oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), and unburned hydrocarbons (UHC). This system uses lean premix combustion to lower the maximum flame temperature and reduce pollution formation. Solar’s engineering staff works with customer’s to meet local permitting emission requirements.
