NOx reduction

NOx is a family of poisonous, highly reactive Nitrogen Oxide gases. These gases are formed when fuel is burned at high temperatures. In order to reduce the emission of these gases into the atmosphere, NOx abatement technologies like low-NOx burning, flue gas treatment, overfire air combustion modification, etc, are used by power producers.
