FUEL DENITROGENATION
o One approach of fuel denitrogenation is to remove a
large part of the nitrogen contained in the fuels.
Nitrogen is removed from liquid fuels by mixing the
fuels with hydrogen gas, heating the mixture and
using a catalyst to cause nitrogen in the fuel and
gaseous hydrogen to unite. This produces ammonia
and cleaner fuel.

CYCLONES (CONTD.)
Construction and Operation
The gas enters through the inlet, and is forced into a
spiral.
At the bottom, the gas reverses direction and flows
upwards.

PROBLEM
SOLUTION
Step 1:
Calculate total area and number of components
required. A = Q/V
Step 2:
Calculate the area of each bag.
A = (d)l
Step 3:
Calculate the total number of bags required.
Number of bags required = Total area / Area
per bag
= 1270 bags
