Abstract
A multi-pressure waste-heat boiler (7) comprises at least one circulation steam generator, having a low-pressure economizer (15), a low-pressure drum (17) and a low-pressure evaporator (16), and at least one once-through steam generator having a high-pressure economizer (21), a high-pressure evaporator (22) and a high-pressure superheater (23). An oxygen addition (32) is arranged between the steam drum (17) of the circulation steam generator and the high-pressure economizer (21) of the once-through steam generator. An ammonia addition (31) is arranged in the feed line (33) leading to the circulation steam generator.
