Application of carbon monoxide catalyst in boiler manufacturing industry

In the boiler manufacturing industry, carbon monoxide catalysts are playing a key role. Its main application scenarios are to improve combustion efficiency and reduce pollutant emissions. Taking industrial boilers as an example, in the combustion process, carbon monoxide will inevitably be produced due to incomplete combustion. At this time, the carbon monoxide catalyst can be installed in a specific part of the boiler, such as near the burner or in the flue.
The mechanism of carbon monoxide catalyst is based on its catalytic activity for carbon monoxide oxidation. The active site on the catalyst surface can adsorb carbon monoxide and oxygen molecules, causing them to undergo chemical reactions on the catalyst surface and convert to carbon dioxide. This process reduces the activation energy of the reaction, speeds up the reaction rate, and enables carbon monoxide to be oxidized more fully, thus improving the combustion efficiency of the boiler and reducing carbon monoxide emissions.
There are many considerations when applying carbon monoxide catalysts. First of all, the reaction temperature should be strictly controlled, because different catalysts have their appropriate working temperature range, and too high or too low temperature may affect the catalytic effect. Secondly, it is necessary to prevent catalyst poisoning, such as sulfur, phosphorus and other impurities in the fuel may be adsorbed on the surface of the catalyst, occupying the active site, resulting in catalyst inactivation. Therefore, the fuel should be strictly pretreated to ensure that its impurity content meets the requirements. At the same time, the catalyst should be inspected and maintained regularly, and the accumulated impurities on the surface should be cleaned up in time to ensure its long-term stable operation.
