Rich Reagent Injection (RRI) is a new NOx control technology that provides coal-fired generating units with a cost-effective means of complying with NOx regulations. The RRI process reduces NOx formation by injecting amine-based compounds into the fuel-rich regions of furnaces. The RRI process was originally developed for coal-fired cyclone boilers, and performs well in the fuel-rich lower furnace created by operating cyclone boilers with overfire air. Combined overfire air and RRI technologies have been shown to reduce cyclone NOx levels by more than 80%. The RRI process is also applicable to other pulverized coal-fired units and industrial boilers.

REI, in collaboration with Corrosion Management (Manchester, UK), has developed and tested an advanced corrosion monitoring technology for application to high temperature combustion environments. This technology provides immediate response, high sensitivity, and the potential for quantitative corrosion measurements over a range of conditions.
