The steady-state kinetics of the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of $NO_X$ with $NH_3$ has been investigated over a commercial ${V_2}{O_5}/TiO_2$ catalyst. In order to account for the influence of transport effects the kinetics are coupled with a fully transient two-phase 1D+1D monolith channel model. The Langmuir-Hinshelwood (L-H) mechanism is adopted to describe the steady-state kinetic behavior of the ${V_2}{O_5}/TiO_2$ catalyst. The reaction rate expressions are based on previously reported papers and are modified to fit the experimental data. The steady-state chemical reaction scheme used in the present mathematical model has been validated extensively with experimental data of selective $NO_X$ reduction efficiency for a wide range of inlet conditions such as space velocity, oxygen concentrations, water concentration, and $NO_2/NO$ ratio. The parametric investigations are performed to examine how the $NH_3$ slip from a SCR $DeNO_X$ catalyst and the conversion of $NO_X$ are affected by the reaction temperature, $NH_3/NO_X$ feed ratio, and space velocity for feed gas compositions with $NO_2/NO_X$ ratios of 0 and 0.5.

The Korean government enacted the "Special Law for Improving Air Quality of Metropolitan Area" in 2003. According to this plan, Korean government plan to lower the concentrations of $PM_{10}$ and $NO_x$ to $40{\mu}g/m^3$ and 22 ppb, respectively, by 2014. In this study, we analyze emission reduction strategies to lower their concentration. Emission reduction for the supply of mass energy and regenerative energy are compared with several scenarios. According to the results, 713 t/y of $NO_x$ and 165 t/y of $PM_{10}$ will be reduced by enhancing the number of households supplied by local heating and air conditioning. And also 5 t/y of $PM_{10}$ and 312 t/y of $NO_x$ will be reduced by replacing conventional energy with solar energy by 2014.

The improvement of $NO_x$ reduction by $Ag/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ with a hydrocarbon ($n-C_7H_6$) in the early state was investigated in a packed-bed dielectric barrier discharge plasma reactor. The results revealed that the combination of plasma with the catalyst enhanced $NO_x$ reduction efficiency at low operating temperatures, depending on the temperature and specific input energy. To sum up, the poor performance of the catalytic $NO_x$ reduction at low temperatures in the early stage before reaching thermochemical steady state can be greatly compensated for by using the atmospheric-pressure plasma generated in the catalyst bed.

본 연구에서는 배출가스 중에 포함된 NO를 비선택적 촉매환원법으로 환원시켜 제거하기 위하여 Ag와 V의 함량을 여러 가지로 달리하여 ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$에 담지한 촉매를 제조하였고, 제조한 촉매에 대하여 온도, 산소농도, 아황산가스농도의 변화에 따른 $NO_x$의 전환율에 대하여 연구하였다. 또한 제조한 촉매의 물성분석을 통하여 촉매의 상태와 $NO_x$의 전환율과의 관계를 알아보았다. $AgV/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ 촉매의 경우에는 고온에서는 $Ag/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ 촉매보다 낮은 $NO_x$ 전환율을 나타내는 반면에 저온에서는$Ag/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ 촉매보다 높은 $NO_x$ 전환율을 나타내었고, 반응가스 중에 $SO_2$가 함유되어 있어도 $NO_x$의 전환율이 낮아지지 않았다. 반응실험 전 후의 촉매에 대하여 X-ray Diffraction, X-ray Photo electron Spectroscopy, Temperature Programmed Reduction, Ultraviolet-Visible Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy 등의 분석결과와 반응실험 결과를 비교하여 볼 때 V가 포함됨으로 인하여 Ag의 산화상태가 잘 유지되지 못하여 고온에서는 $NO_x$ 전환율이 낮아지며, $300^{\circ}C$ 이하의 저온에서는 V의 촉매작용으로 인하여 $NO_x$ 전환율이 높아진 것으로 나타났다.

To reach the Euro-6 regulations of PM and $NO_x$ for light-duty diesel vehicles, it will be necessary to apply the CDPF and the de-$NO_x$ catalyst. The described system consists of a catalytic configuration, where the CDPF is placed downstream of the diesel engine and followed by a urea injection unit and a urea-SCR catalyst. One of the advantages of this system configuration is that, in this way, the SCR catalyst is protected from PM, and both white PM and deposits become reduced. In the urea-SCR system, the injection control of reductant is the most important thing in order to have good performance of $NO_x$ reduction. The ideal ratio of $NH_3$ molecules to $NO_x$ molecules is 1:1 based on $NH_3$ consumption and having $NH_3$ available for reaction of all of the exhaust $NO_x$. However, under the too low and too high temperature condition, the $NO_x$ reduction efficiency become slower, due to temperature window of SCR catalyst. And space velocity also affects to $NO_x$ conversion efficiency. In this paper, rig-tests were performed to evaluate the effects of $NO_x$ and $NH_3$ concentrations, gas temperature and space velocity on the $NO_x$ conversion efficiency of the urea-SCR system. And vehicle test was performed to verify control strategy of reductatnt injection. The developed control strategy of reductant injection was improved over all $NO_x$ reduction efficiency and $NH_3$ consumption in urea-SCR system. Results of this paper contribute to develop urea-SCR system for light-duty vehicles to meet Euro-5 emission regulations.

In order to design a compact urea selective catalytic reduction system, numerical simulation was conducted by computational fluid dynamics tool. A swirl type static mixer and a mixing chamber were considered as mixing units in the system. It had great influence on flow characteristics and urea decomposition into ammonia. The mixer caused flow recirculation and high level of turbulence intensity, and the chamber increased residence time of urea-water-solution injected. Because of those effects, reaction rates of urea decomposition were enhanced in the region. When those mixing units were combined, it showed the maximum because the recirculation zone was significantly developed. $NH_3$ conversion was maximized in the zone due to widely distributed turbulence intensity and high value of uniformity index. It caused improvement of $NO_x$ reduction efficiency of the system. It was possible to reduce 55% length of the chamber and connecting pipe without decrease of $NO_x$ reduction efficiency.

From the view of the environmental protection against the use of fossil fuels, the great of efforts have been exerted to find an effective method which is not only pollutant reduction but also high thermal efficiency. Reburning is a useful technology in reducing nitric oxide through injection of a secondary hydrocarbon fuel. In this paper, an experimental study has been conducted to evaluate the hybrid effects of reburning and selective non-catalytic reaction (SNCR) on $NO_x/CO$ reduction from oxygen-enriched LPG flame. Experiments were performed in flames stabilized by a co-flow swirl burner, which was mounted at the bottom of the furnace. Tests were conducted using LPG gas as main fuel and also as reburn fuel. The paper reported data on flue gas emissions, temperature distribution in furnace and various heat fluxes at the wall for a wide range of experimental conditions. Overall temperature in the furnace, heat fluxes to the wall and $NO_x$ generation were observed to increase by oxygen-enriched combustion, but due to its hybrid effects of reburning and SNCR, $NOx/CO$ concentration in the downstream has considerably decreased.

The ozone produced by a dielectric barrier discharge device was injected into the exhaust gas to oxidize a part of NO to $NO_2$, and then the exhaust gas containing the mixture of NO and $NO_2$ was further treated in a catalytic reactor where both NO and $NO_2$ were reduced to $N_2$ in the presence of ammonia as the reducing agent. The $NO_2$ content in the mixture of NO and $NO_2$ was changed by the amount of ozone added to the exhaust gas. The experiments were primarily concerned with the effect of reaction temperature on the catalytic $NO_x$ reduction at various $NO_2$ contents. The increase in the $NO_2$ content by the ozone injection remarkably improved the performance of the catalytic $NO_x$ reduction, especially at low temperatures.

선택적 촉매 환원법(SCR)은 질소산화물(NO_x)을 저감하는 매우 효율적인 방법으로 알려져 있으며 발생된 질소산화물(NO_x)을 질소(N₂)와 수증기(H₂O)로 환원시키는데 촉매 작용을 한다. 질소산화물(NO_x) 저감 성능을 결정하는 요소 중 하나인 촉매는 셀 밀도가 증가하면 촉매효율이 증가하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 실습선 세계로호에 설치되어 있는 발전 기관의 배기가스 조건을 모사한 실험장치를 통하여 100CPSI(60Cell)촉매의 부하에 따른 질소산화물(NO_x) 저감 성능을 확인하고 세계로호에 설치되어 있는 25.8CPSI(30Cell) 촉매의 기존 연구 자료와의 비교를 통해, 셀 밀도가 질소산화물(NO_x)의 저감에 미치는 영향에 대하여 고찰하였다. 실험용 촉매는 셀 밀도만 변화를 주었고 형태는 벌집형(honeycomb), 조성물질은 V₂O₅-WO₃-TiO₂를 동일하게 사용하여 제작하였다. 실험결과 100CPSI(60Cell) 촉매의 질소산화물(NO_x) 농도 저감율은 평균적으로 88.5%이며 IMO specific NOx 배출량은 0.99g/kwh로 IMO Tier III NOx 배출기준을 만족하였다. 25.8CPSI(30Cell) 촉매의 경우, 질소산화물(NO_x) 농도 저감율은 78%, IMO specific NOx 배출량은 2.00g/kwh 이었다 두 촉매의 NOx 농도 저감율과 IMO specific NOx 배출량을 비교하였을 때, 100CPSI(60Cell)촉매가 25.8CPSI(30Cell) 촉매보다, NOx 농도 저감율은 10.5% 높고 IMO specific NOx 배출량은 약 2배 적은 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 촉매의 셀 밀도를 높임으로써 효율적인 탈질효과를 기대할 수 있으며 향후 실선 테스트를 통하여 검증한다면 촉매의 부피 저감을 통한 제작 비용을 줄이고 협소한 선박 기관실을 효율적으로 사용하기 위한 실용적인 자료로서 기대된다.

Emergency generators normally use diesel engines. The generators need to conduct weekly no-load operation inspections to ensure stable performance at emergency situations. In particular, the generators with large diesel engines mainly use rectangle type filter substrates. In order to minimize hazardous emissions generated by generators, optimizing the reduction efficiency through CFD analysis of flow characteristics of PM/NO_X reduction system is important. In this study, we analyzed internal flow by CFD, which is difficult to confirm by experimental method. The main factors in our numerical study are the changes of flow uniformity and back pressure. Therefore, changes in flow characteristics were studied according to urea injector locations, selective catalyst reduction (SCR) diffuser angle, and filter porosity.
