enables clean combustion to occur at a relatively low temperature. Injectors control the air to fuel ratio and the air-fuel mixture in the primary zone to ensure that the optimal flame temperature is achieved for NOx minimization. The higher air to fuel ratio results in a lower flame temperature, which leads to lower NOx levels. In order to achieve low levels of CO and THC simultaneously with low NOx levels, the air and fuel mixture is retained in the combustion chamber for a relatively long time period. This process allows for more complete combustion of the CO and THC’s. The Capstone MicroTurbine has a large primary zone volume within its combustor chamber, which allows the air and fuel to remain in the combustion zone for a relatively long time period. As a result, more complete combustion is achieved at low temperatures, thereby ensuring that very low CO and THC emissions are achieved simultaneously with very low NOx emissions. The NOx, CO and THC levels are at their lowest when the Capstone MicroTurbine is operating over an output range between 90 per cent and 100 per cent. 4. Green House Gases CO2 levels per kWh of electricity produced are directly related to the efficiency of the system. Higher engine efficiencies will result in lower CO2 levels. The following graph shows that, fueled with Natural Gas, the Capstone MicroTurbine has lower CO2 emissions than the US national average and has emissions of CO2 less than all the major US grids.
