Popis: In this work, response surface methodology and artificial neural network were adopted to build a model of a NOx removal system in a LNG terminal that estimates the released amounts of NOx in flue gas from a submerged combustion vaporizer. A small-scale SCV setting was prepared for the experiment, and it was operated under various conditions (i.e., changes of residence time, flow rate of the air, water temperature, and pH of the water). The simulation results demonstrated good agreement between both models and the experimental data, although the ANN model showed a higher accuracy than that of the RSM model.
