Simultaneous removal technologies of multi-pollutants such as particulate matters (PMs), NOx, SOx, VOCs and ammonia have received consistent attention due to the enhancement of pollutant abatement efficiency in addition to the stringent environmental regulation and emission standard. Pretreatment of insoluble NO by an ozone oxidation can be considered to be more effective route for saving space occupation as well as operation cost in comparison with that of traditional selective catalytic reduction (SCR) process. Moreover the primary advantage of ozone oxidation process is that the simultaneous removal with acidic gas including SOx is also available. Herein, we highlight recent studies of multi-pollutant abatement via ozone oxidation process and the promising research topics for better application in industrial sectors.

최근 산업구조의 고도화에 따라 다양한 산업분야에서 화석연료 등의 에너지소모가 급증하면서 환경문제의 심각성이 대두되고 있다. 그중 질소산화물(NOx)은 산성비와 광화학 스모그의 원인이 되며 눈과 호흡기를 자극하고 식물을 고사시키는 등 주요 대기오염물질로 규제되고 있다. 이와 관련하여 국제해사기구(IMO)에서는 선박대기오염물질의 배출을 규제하는 규정을 만들었으며, 최근에는 배출규제를 강화하는 등 적극적인 규제활동을 벌이고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 선박배기가스 질소산화물의 배출규제 현황과 배출 규제안에 대응하기 위해 본 연구원에서 연구개발 중인 배기가스 오염물질 저감장치의 선택적 촉매 환원(Selective Catalytic Reduction, SCR)시스템에 관하여 간략히 기술한다.

Recently, the certification procedure for exhaust emission regulation of LDV has tested with the NEDC mode in the laboratory. But the on-road exhaust emissions exceed the standard emission limits. Therefore, it is important to analyze the real-driving emissions (RDE) with a portable emissions measurement system (PEMS). In present study, the on-road emissions were measured with a PEMS and evaluated by moving averaging window (MAW) method. Also, it was compared with the $CO_2$ and $NO_x$ emissions for real-driving and test modes from euro-6 light-duty vehicles equipped with SCR and LNT systems. In results, on-road $NO_x$ emission has been 2.3-10.0 times higher than the standard $NO_x$ emission limit on NEDC mode. The reason was that the test modes did not reflect traffic and various real-driving patterns sufficiently.

The market demand for diesel engine tends to increase in general passenger cars as well as commercial vehicles because of its advantages. However, to meet the vehicle emissions regulation which will be more stringent in the future, it is necessary to plurally apply all after-treatment technologies such as diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC), catalyzed diesel particulate filter (CDPF), lean NOx trap (LNT) and selective catalytic reduction (SCR), and so on. Accordingly, the exhaust after-treatment system for diesel vehicle requires the technology of minimizing the numbers of catalysts by integrating every individual catalysts. The purposes of this study is to develop hybrid exhaust after-treatment device system which simultaneously uses LNT/DPF and SCR/DPF catalyst concurrently reducing NOx and particulate matter (PM). As the results, the hybrid system with $NH_3$ generated at LNT/DPF working as a reducing agent of SCR/DPF catalyst, improving NOx conversion rate, was found to be more excellent in de-NOx performance than that in LNT/DPF alone system.

Computer methods with simplified mathematical models in conjunction with empirical model parameters can be efficiently practiced into an optimization of a diesel aftertreatment system. Components of prime interests are diesel particulate filter, diesel oxidation catalyst and de-$NO_x$ catalytic converter. de-$NO_x$, de-PM, and de-HC processes in each part are individually modeled, formulated and then combined into an integrated analysis procedure for a unified simulation of the diesel emission aftertreatment. The model is empirically tuned and validated with comprehensive engine and laboratory data. The effects of emission species and space velocity on the $NO_x$ and soot reductions are parametrically investigated. A lowered $NO_2/NO_x$ ratio due to PM oxidation in DPF contributes to promote the $NO_x$ reduction by SCR at intermediate gas temperatures. $NO_x$ reduction is inert to the PM oxidation at high temperatures. Rate of PM trapping strongly depends on temperature and $NO_x$ concentration.

A new method that optimizes a control of hydrocarbon (HC) addition to diesel exhaust gas for HC type DeNOx catalyst system has been developed. These catalysts are called as the HC-DeNOx catalyst in this paper. The system using HC-DeNOx catalyst requires a resonable quantity of hydrocarbons addition in the inlet gas of the catalyst, because the HC concentration in a diesel engine is so low that the HC is not sufficient for NOx conversion. Generally ambient temperature in the exhaust manifold is $250{\sim}350^{\circ}C$, so spray behavior in this case is different from that of any other condions. This research shows spray behavior of injected hydrocarbons in the transparent exhaust manifold.

Diesel $NO_x$ reduction by $NH_3$-SCR in conjunction with the effective oxidation precatalyst was analytically investigated. Physicochemical processes in regard to $NH_3$-SCR $NO_x$ reduction and catalytic NO-$NO_2$ conversion are formulated with detailed descriptions on the commanding reactions. A unified model is correctly validated with experimental data in terms of extents of $NO_x$ reduction by SCR and NO-$NO_2$ conversion by DOC. The present deterministic model based on the rate expressions of Langmuir-Hinshelwood reaction scheme finds a conversion extent directly. A series of numerical experiments concomitant with parametric analysis of the $NO_x$ reduction was conducted. $NO_x$ reduction is promoted in proportion to DOC volume ar lower temperatures and an opposite holds at lower space velocity and intermediate temperatures. $NO_x$ conversion is weakly correlated to the space velocity and the DOC volume at higher exhaust temperature. In DOC-SCR system, the $NO_x$ reduction efficiency depends on the $NH_3/NO_x$ ratio.

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.

Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology is well-known to be effective for the reduction of NOx emission. So car manufacturers has adopted Ures-SCR system to be satisfied with emission regulation. This paper discusses the effective of $NH_3/NOx$ ratio and SCR catalyst temperature in the $NH_3$-SCR reactor on DeNOx performance. So it is shown the characteristic of NOx conversion and ammonia slip using the $NH_3$ instead of Urea-Solution. From the result of this study, it is found to optimize $NH_3/NOx$ ratio to have the best case of high NOx conversion and low ammonia slip at variable SCR catalyst temperatures. Lastly, it is also found the characteristics of NOx conversion and ammonia slip with compared with Urea.

In order to remove the NO contained in exhaust gas by the non-selective catalyst reduction method, the catalysts were prepared by varing the loading amount of Ag and V into ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$. The conversion of $NO_x$ using the prepared catalysts was studied by varying the temperatures, $O_2$ concentrations and $SO_2$ concentrations using. The influence of the catalyst structure on $NO_x$ conversion was studied through the analysis of the physical properties of the prepared catalysts. In the case of $AgV/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ catalyst, the $NO_x$ conversion was lower than that of $Ag/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ at higher temperatures but higher than that of $Ag/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ at lower temperatures. Even though $SO_2$ was contained in the reaction gas, the $NO_x$ conversion did not decrease. Based on the analysis including XRD, XPS, TPR, and UV-Vis DRS before and after the experiments, the experimental results were examined. The results indicated that, $NO_x$ conversion decreased at higher temperatures since Ag oxide could not be maintained well due to the addition of V, whereas it increased at temperatures lower than $300^{\circ}C$ due to the catalytic action of V.
