Abstract

This invention relates to pollution control requirements for fossil-fuel burning facilities, such as power plants, and, more particularly, to a method for providing a safe and economical supply of ammonia, from a urea feedstock, when ammonia is desired or necessary to initiate, cause and/or supplement the removal of one or more pollutants from an exhaust gas stream.
