산업용 보일러나 발전설비와 같은 대규모 고정원에서 다량 배출되는 NOx의 제거를 위한 여러 기술 중에서 현재 암모니아를 환원제로 사용하는 선택적 촉매 환원법(Selective Catalytic Reduction : SCR)이 가장 유망하며, 많은 연구와 더불어 선진국가에서 상업화되어 조업되고 있다. SCR 공정은 시설투자와 운전비가 비교적 저렴하고 높은 NOx 전환율(90%이상)과 폐수처리 등의 후처리 공정이 필요하지 않은 장점이 있다. (중략)

Investigation was carried out lean burn de-NOx properties of Pt-$TiO_2$ bifunctional catalyst by propylene in order to get the high de-NOx activity and the wide temperature window under coexistence of $SO_2$ and $H_2O$. Only noncatalyst and carrier catalyst themselves had NOx conversion activity at high temperature over $400^{\circ}C$. NOx conversion activity of catalysts exchanged copper ion resulted in Cu-$TiO_2$>Cu-ZSM-5>Cu-$Al_2O_3$>CU-YZ>Cu-AZ. Catalysts impregnated with platinum based on titania gave the results of high NOx conversion activity at low temperature. $250^{\circ}C$. Bifunctional catalysts based on Pt-$TiO_2$ showed high NOx conversion activity both at a low zone of $300^{\circ}C$ and a high zone of $500^{\circ}C$. Pt-$TiO_2$/$Al_2O_3$ catalyst gave the highest NOx conversion activity at a low temperature zone. and Pt-$TiO_2$/$Mn_2O_3$(21) catalyst gave the highest NOx conversion activity at a high temperature zone. Under the coexistence of $SO_2$ and $H_2O$. NOx conversion activities of 0.55wt%Pt-$TiO_2$/5wt%Cu-ZSM-5 catalyst was high both at a low and high temperature zone, and increased depending on oxygen concentration. 0.55wt%Pt-$TiO_2$/5wt%Cu-ZSM-5 catalyst showed the best correlation between de-NOx activities and the propyl ere conversion rates to CO on the log function.

The selective catalytic reduction (SCR) process is the most widely applied technology for the denitrification of coal-fired power plant flue gases due to its selectivity and high efficiency. In order to attain the optimum design of SCR process, it is required to consider various catalysis characteristics as well as various operating conditions. A systematic study to elucidate the effects of the design conditions(reaction temperature, $NH_3/NO$ mole ratio, space velocity and linear velocity) on the reduction of NOx using the SCR pilot plant with maximum flue gas flow rate of $1,000Nm^3/hr$ was carried out and employed to identify the optimum design parameters. Design approaches of SCR process with test results were also presented.

The present work studied the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO to $N_2$ by $NH_3$ over $V/TiO_2$ focusing on NOx control for the stationary sources. The SCR process depends mainly on the catalyst performance. The reaction characteristics of SCR with $V/TiO_2$ catalysts were closely examined at low and high temperature. In addition, adsorption and desorption characteristics of the reactants on the catalyst surface were investigated with ammonia. Seven different $TiO_2$ supports containing the same loading of vanadia were packed in a fixed bed reactor respectively. The interaction between $TiO_2$ and vanadia would form various non-stoichiometric vanadium oxides, and showed different reaction activities. There were optimum calcination temperatures for each samples, indicating different reactivity. It was finally found from the $NH_3-TPD$ test that the SCR activity was nothing to do with $NH_3$ adsorption amount.

선택적 CO 산화반응(PrOx)을 위한 Ru이 고분산 담지된 $Ru/{\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ 촉매를 증착-침전법(deposition-precipitation)으로 제조하였다. 용액의 pH와 aging 시간에 따른 Ru 입자의 크기 변화와 분산도의 영향을 살펴보았으며 함침법(impregnation)으로 비교 촉매를 제조하였다. 촉매의 특성분석은 BET, TPR, CO-Chemisorption분석을 수행하여 촉매의 비표면적, 환원특성, 분산도를 알 수 있었다. 특성분석결과, 증착-침전법으로 제조한 $Ru/{\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ 촉매가 함침법으로 제조한 촉매에 비해 분산도가 높았으며, pH별 촉매 제조에서는 pH6.5로 제조한 촉매가 22.06%로 가장 높은 분산도를 보였다. 또한, 담체의 비표면적 영향에 따른 Ru 입자의 분산도를 살펴보기 위해 ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$와 ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ 담체를 적용한 결과, 비표면적이 작은 ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ 담체 표면에서 Ru 분산도가 ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ 담체에 비해 높았다. 이는 기공이 발달하여 비표면적이 넓은 ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ 담체는 소량의 Ru을 고분산 담지 시 담체 표면보다는 기공 내에 담지 되는 양이 많아 실제 반응 시 반응에 참여하는 표면 활성 금속양이 적음을 알 수 있다. 특히, 선택적 산화반응과 같이 표면에서 빠른 반응이 일어나는 경우, 기공 내부의 활성금속이 반응에 참여하기 어려워 반응 활성이 낮음을 PrOx 반응실험을 통해 확인할 수 있었다. PrOx test 조건은 GHSV 250000~60000, 온도는 80~200도, 람다값은 2~4로 성능 비교하여 실험 하였다. PrOx의 성능평가 결과 담체를 ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$를 사용하여 deposition-precipitation방법으로 제조한 pH6.5 촉매에서 $100{\sim}160^{\circ}C$에서 90%의 가장 높은 CO conversion을 가지고 18%의 선택도를 가졌다.

This work investigated the size and shape effect of ${\gamma}$-alumina-supported metal oxides on the hydrocarbon selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides. Several metal oxides including Ag, Cu and Ru were used as the catalysts, and n-heptane as the reducing agent. For the Ag/${\gamma}$-alumina catalyst, the $NO_x$ reduction efficiency in the range of $250{\sim}400^{\circ}C$ increased as the size of Ag decreased (20 nm>50 nm>80 nm). The shape effect of metal oxides on the $NO_x$ reduction was examined with spherical- and wire-shape nanoparticles. Under identical condition, higher catalytic activity for $NO_x$ reduction was observed with Ag and Cu wires than with the spheres, while spherical- and wire-shape Ru exhibited similar $NO_x$ reduction efficiency to each other. Among the metal oxides examined, the best catalytic activity for $NO_x$ reduction was obtained with Ag wire, showing almost complete $NO_x$ removal at a temperature of $300^{\circ}C$. For Cu and Ru catalysts, considerable amount of NO was oxidized to $NO_2$, rather than reduced to $N_2$, leading to lower $NO_x$ reduction efficiency.

Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with ammonia was carried out over the physical mixture of $MnO_2$ and K or Cu-loaded activated carbons (AC) at low temperature. Introduction of oxygen affected positively the reduction of NO. Metal-impregnated AC showed significantly enhanced catalytic activity. Without water, the mixed catalyst of $MnO_2$ and K-loaded AC exhibited the best activity in the reduction of NO at $120^{\circ}C$. On the contrary, the activities of all the catalysts were significantly diminished in the presence of water. The mixed catalyst of $MnO_2$ and Cu-loaded AC treated with nitric acid and heat (1 : 1, w/w) exhibited the better activity for the reduction of NO than each single catalyst in presence of water.

Activated carbon SCR(CSCR) catalyst that is used to remove $NO_x$ in exhaust gas including boron discharged from the production process of liquid crystal display(LCD) shows deactivation when boron is deposited to block the pores within the catalyst or to cover its active sites. The spent carbon catalyst is regenerated by washing with various surfactants, drying and calcination. For comparison of the physical and chemical properties before and after the regeneration with the variables, type of surfactants and calcination condition, element analysis by ICP, $N_{2}$ adsorption were conducted. $DeNO_{x}$ in SCR with $NH_3$ was carried out in a fixed bed reactor at $120^{\circ}C$. The activated carbon catalyst regenerated through washing with a non-ionic surfactant in $H_{2}O$ at $90^{\circ}C$ and calcination under $N_{2}$ gas at $550^{\circ}C$ shows similar level of surface area and $NO_x$ removal efficiency with those of fresh catalyst.

Since emission regulations for vehicles have become more stringent, SCR technology has drawn a strong attention in order to reduce NOx emissions. Optimal design of a reductant injection nozzle and a multi-hole plate located between the cone and catalyst is critical in that the uniform distribution of reductant is necessary to maximize the NOx conversion efficiency and minimize the slip of reductant in SCR. In this work, an LPG fuel(C3H8 in vapor state) was used as a reductant for LPG vehicles. A Realizable k-$\varepsilon$ model is used for turbulence, and SCR body is defined as porous media with inertia and viscous resistances measured in this work. Effect of the number of nozzle holes on the flow mixing index was analyzed, which revealed that a four hole nozzle shows the best performance in terms of uniformity of flow. An installment of a multi-hole plate at the entrance of catalyst was evaluated with flow mixing index, uniformity of flow, and pressure drop. A multi-hole plate with gradual hole diameter change in three steps showed the best uniformity of flow within the conditions suggested in this work.
