petroleum gas, and a variety of process gases and waste materials. Each of these fuels has different combustion characteristics and produces distinct GHG emissions. Coal is the highest CO 2 producer in ICI boilers with an average emission factor of 93.98 kg CO 2/million British thermal units (MMBtu); natural gas has the lowest emissions of CO

Much of the fuel used in the ammonia synthesis is used in the main reformer (about 78 percent) and the remainder-in auxiliary boilers. The usage of natural gas for energy purposes contributes to 66 percent of overall electricity expenditure (excluding utilization of feedstock). The biggest cost of ammonia manufacturing is natural gas.

A boiler, fired with natural gas costing $0.30/therm, produces 450 psig saturated steam and is supplied with 230°F feedwater. Using values from the tables, calculate the cost of producing steam. Steam Cost = 0.3 ($/therm) x 1000 x 1006 (Btu/lb) x 100 = $3.69/1000 lbs 100,000 (Btu/therm) 81.7 Operating Feedwater Temperature, °F

Blowdown—the process of taking water out of a boiler to reduce the concentration level of impurities. There are two types of blowdown, continuous and intermittent, p. 293. Burners—devices that introduce, distribute, mix, and burn a fuel (e.g., natural gas, fuel oil, or coal) for heat, p. 297. M14_NAPT1262_02_SE_C14.indd 290 29/06/2018 13:50

The simplest gasification process uses air as the reactive agent (as shown in Figure 4 on page 6), which converts the excess char into a low energy syn-gas (142-209 Btu/ft. 3) consisting mainly of hydrogen and carbon monoxide diluted with nitrogen from the air. The producer gas is suitable for boiler and engine
