In this study, in order to make up its draw-back in Cu-ZSM-5 catalytic system, some of transition metals or alkaline earth metals were cocation-exchanged in Cu-ZSM-5. Among various cocation-ion-exchanged ZSM-5 catalysts, Mg/Cu-ZSM-5 has been found the most active and durable in NOx reduction even at high oxygen content as well as at the presence of water vapor. The role of Mg in ZSM-5 is supposed to prevent the dealumination of aluminum ions in super-cage even at harsh hydro-thermal conditions, and also it seems to stabilize the Cu ions in the structure. In order to prepare commercially available catalysts, Mg/Cu-ZSM-5 catalysts were wash-coated on the surface of honeycomb type monolith, and tested in terms of catalytic activities. As a result, it was found that the catalyst prepared bt the wash-coating showed satisfactorily high NOx conversion for the practical use in SCR process.

De-NOx facility using Selective Catalytic Reduction method is the most widely applied one that removes NOx from flue gas emitted from combustion facility such as boiler for power generation engine incinerator etc. Reductant $NH_3\;or\;NH_4OH$ is sprayed into flue gas to convert NOx into $H_2O$ and $N_2.$ Good mixing between flue gas and $NH_3$ is the most important factor to increase reduction in catalytic layer and to reduce unreacted NH3 slip. Therefore the development of mixer device for mixing effect is one of the important part for SCR facility. Objectives of this study are to investigate the relation between flow and concentration field by observation at the wake of delta-wing type mixer. At the first stage qualitative measurement of flow field is conducted by flow visualization using laser light sheet in lab. scale wind tunnel. Also we have conducted the quantitative analysis by comparing flow field measurement using LDV with numerical simulation. On the basis of qualitative and quantitative analysis we investigate the dis-tribution of flow and concentration in flow model facility. The results of an experimental and compu-tational examination of the vortex structures shed from delta wing type vortex generator having $40^{\circ}$ angle of attack are presented, The effects of vortex structure on the gas mixing is discussed, too.

This study focuses on modeling the impact of ammonia leakage from the storage tank in a combined cycle power plant's flue gas denitrification facility. It employs accident impact assessments and diffusion models to determine the optimal scenarios for ammonia storage tank leakage accidents. The study considers the operating conditions of variables as standard conditions for predicting the extent of damage. The Taean combined cycle power plant is chosen as the target area, taking into account seasonal factors such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, atmospheric stability, and wind direction. By utilizing a Gaussian diffusion model, the concentration of ammonia gas at various locations is estimated to assess the potential extent of external damage resulting from a leak. The study reveals that in conditions of high temperature and stable atmosphere within the specified range, lower wind speeds contribute to increased damage to the human body due to ammonia diffusion.

NO removal activity (per unit of mass) of the used catalyst was seriously decreased as low as 27% of the new catalyst. Since the surface area of the used catalyst was 63% of that of the new one, the mojor reason for the lessened activity of the used catalyst compared to the new one may be due to the decreased surface area by sintering and surface concentration of active materials. Poison may be regarded as another important factor, since it affect the active site of catalyst by heavy metals. To recycle the used catalyst, we focused on the removal of poisoning agents from the catalyst. By using $80^{\circ}C$ water for 30 min upto 2 h, the recycled catalyst demonstrated the best activity and efficiency, which may be due to the removal of both K and Na. Although the recovered activity (per unit of surface area) of the catalyst was 79% compared to the new one, the activity (per unit of mass) of the recovered catalyst was only 49% compared of the activity of fresh catalyst.

Deactivation of SCR catalyst applied in Orimusion fuel power plant was investigated to develope the technique for the regeneration of deactivated SCR catalyst and optimize the operation of SCR facility. The characterization study of the catalysts was carried out using XRD, ICP-AES, SEM and EDS. The NO$_X$ removal activity and SO$_2$ oxidation activity of the catalysts were measured. The NO$_X$ conversion of the deactivated catalyst was 5$\sim$10% lower than that of the fresh catalyst and the value of SO$_2$conversion to SO$_3$ over the deactivated catalyst was about 0.59% higher than that of the fresh catalyst. Vanadium(V), Magnesium(Mg) and Sulfur(S) were largely accumulated in the deactivated catalyst. The accumulation of Vanadium(V) and Sulfur(S) is due to the components of the Orimulsion fuel and the accumulation of Magnesium(Mg) is due to MgO that is injected in the boiler to prevent the oxidation of SO$_2$ to SO$_3$. The diffraction line of the TiO$_2$ of the deactivated catalyst was identified as the crystalline peaks of anatase as the fresh catalyst.
