Knowledge of NOx formation in combustion processes is essential for the

success of selective measures for NOx-reduction. ANDRITZ FBB has this

know-how and uses it for development of low NOx burners and zero-flame combustion.

Low NOx and ultra-low NOx burners operate with an

optimized mixture of fuel, combustion air, and high

recirculation of flue gas, not reaching adiabatic flame

temperature and significantly reducing NOx formation.

Preheating combustion air to highly increase the

furnace efficiency and productivity by storage and

recovery of flue products.

ANDRITZ METALS developed with the PYROMARS and ZEMAP technology

a highly efficient recycling circuit of mixed pickling acid and rinse water -

making the stainless steel pickling an effluent free process.

99% recovery of hydrofluoric acid

99% recovery of metals as oxides

Recovery rates of up to 80% for nitric acid while the

rest is reduced to nitrogen gas and water (N2+H2O)

99% recovery for hydrofluoric acid, 99% for metals

The contaminated water of the rinsing section is

treated with the ZEMAP process minimizing

significantly the consumption of demineralized

water and eliminating the dissolved nitrates

in the effluents.

No waste water treatment
