Turbomachinery Package Specification Titan 250 Generator Set
For combustion, the gas turbine requires approximately one-fourth of the total air it
compresses. The excess air is mixed with the combustion products to reduce the gas
temperature at the turbine first stage-inlet. The cooling air also keeps metal temperatures
in the combustor and turbine assembly relatively low to ensure a long service life.

3.1.2 SoLoNOx Combustion System
The Titan 250 incorporates Solar’s proprietary SoLoNOx dry emissions system that
reduces pollution by limiting the formation of nitrous oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide
(CO), and unburned hydrocarbons (UHC). This system uses lean premix combustion to
lower the maximum flame temperature and reduce pollution formation. Solar’s
engineering staff will work with the customer to meet local permitting emission
requirements.
