Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1164286A2] Monitoring process for the formation of NOx during fossil fuel combustion comprises determining conductivity values of combustion gases for negatively charged particles, then values for positively charged particles which arise in an identical process, comparing the two results; and establishing the formation of nitrogen oxides when the conductivity values increasingly deviate during the comparison. Process for monitoring the formation of NOx during combustion of fossil fuels comprises determining first conductivity values of the combustion gases during combustion for negatively charged particles; comparing the first conductivity values with second conductivity values for positively charged particles which arise in the combustion gas during a further combustion process under identical conditions; and establishing the formation of NOx when the conductivity values increasingly deviate during the comparison.
