Abstract

See full text

NO.sub.x emissions may be lowered from the combustion of coal in a furnace. The method includes providing a furnace having a combustion chamber in which is combusted coal and oxygen. Further, coal and a metal containing combustion catalyst are delivered into the combustion chamber together with a reduced amount of oxygen as compared the amount of oxygen combusted in the combustion chamber without the metal-containing combustion catalyst. The thermal efficiency and combustion stability of the furnace are not decreased as a result of the reduction combustion air and provision of metal containing additives to the combustion chamber.
