Performance Testing of a Low Emissions, Natural-Gas Fired, Small Gas Turbine Combustor

K. O. Smith¹,

G. W. Wade²,

et al.

Abstract: The initial development of a lean-premixed, natural gas-fired combustor for a 200 kw gas turbine is described. The development effort included both rig testing and on-engine testing of the combustor. The combustor demonstrated an ultra-low NOx emissions capability in both test environments.

The results of an on-engine evaluation of an ultra-low NOx, natural gas-fired combustor for a 200 kW gas turbine are presented. The combustor evaluated used lean-premixed combustion to reduce NOx emissions and variable geometry to extend the range over which low emissions were obtained. Test results showed that ultra-low NOx emissions could be achieved from full load down to approximately 50% load through the combination of lean-premixed combustion and variable primary zone airflow.

The Burlington Vermont gasifier is the first commercial scale demonstration of the FERCO indirectly heated biomass gasification process. The gasification plant is the largest operation of its type in the US and was the first process to integrate a biomass gasifier with a gas turbine during pilot operations at Battelle’s Columbus, OH facilities. The Burlington plant is coupled to the McNeil station of the Burlington Electric Department and is being used to evaluate and demonstrate the gasification technology both as a producer of fuel gas and in a combined cycle with a gas turbine power generation system. This paper discusses operating results at the Burlington site including gas cleanup / conditioning observations. Future Energy Resources, the owner of the gasification technology, is developing projects worldwide.
