Diesel vehicles should be equipped with urea-selective catalytic reduction(SCR) system as a high-performance catalyst, in order to reduce harmful nitrogen oxide emissions. In this study, a three-dimensional Eulerian-Lagrangian CFD analysis was used to numerically predict the multiphase flow characteristics of the urea-SCR system, coupled with the chemical reactions of the system's transport phenomena. Then, the numerical spray structure was modified by comparing the results with the measured values from spray visualization, such as the injection velocity, penentration length, spray radius, and sauter mean diameter. In addition, the analysis results were verified by comparison with the removal efficiency of the nitrogen oxide emissions during engine and chassis tests, resulting in accuracy of the relative error of less than 5%. Finally, a verified CFD analysis was used to calculate the interanl flow of the urea-SCR system, thereby analyzing the characteristics of pressure drop and velocity increase, and predicting the uniformity index and overdistribution positions of ammonia.

각종 산업체의 공정에서 혹은 석탄 혹은 석유를 사용하는 화력발전설비에서 다량 발생되는 질소산화물(NOx), 황산화물(SOx)의 배출규제가 점점 강화되어 감에 따라 배출량 절감이 절실히 요구된다. 기존의 배기가스 정화장치는 처리대상에 따라 다양한 방법들이 사용되는데 황산화물의 경우 습식, 반건식, 건식세정법에 의해, 질소산화물은 선택적 촉매환원법(Selective Catalytic Reduction)과 선택적 무촉매환원법(Selective Non Catalytic Reduction)이 널리 이용되고 있다.(중략)

Numerical analysis was done to evaluate the chemical reaction and the reduction rate inside of selective non-catalytic reduction to denitrification in combustion process. The $NO_X$ reduction in selective non-catalytic reduction is converted to not only nitrogen but also nitrous oxide. Simultaneous $NO_X$ reduction and nitrous oxide generation suppressing is required in selective non-catalytic reduction because nitrous oxide influences the global warming as a greenhouse gas. The current study was performed compare the computational analysis in the same temperature and amount of NaOH, and in comparison with the previous research experiments and confirmed the reliability of the computational fluid dynamics. Additionally, controlling the addition amount of NaOH to predict the $NO_X$ reduction efficiency and nitrous oxide production. Numerical analysis was done to check the mass fraction of each material in the measurement point at the end of selective non-catalytic reduction. Experimental Value and simulation value by numerical analysis showed an error of up to 18.9% was confirmed that a generally well predicted. and it was confirmed that the widened temperature range of more than 70% $NO_X$ removal rate is increased when the addition amount of NaOH. So, large and frequent changes of the reaction temperature waste incineration facilities are expected to be effective.

SCR(selective catalytic reduction) pilot plant for reduction of the nitrogen oxides using diesel oil as a reductant was installed at the NG(natural gas) fired combined cycle and the activity of Pt(0.3%)/Zeolite catalyst was studied in real flue gas condition according to the amount of reductant. reaction temperature and space velocity. NOx conversion gradually increased with increasing the diesel oil concentration up to C/N ratio 5.5(C/N ratio: the ratio of the number of carbon atom to the number of NOx molecules included in the flue gas). Increasing the reaction temperature. NOx conversion increased and reached a maximum conversion of 50% at $190^{\circ}C$. NOx conversion did not changed with increasing the space velocity up to 18,500/hr and then gradually decreased. These results reveal the potential for diesel oil as a reductant for de-NOx SCR process.

The policy-making and technological development of eco-friendly automobiles designed to increase their supply is ongoing, but the internal combustion engine still accounts for approximately 95% of automobiles in use. To meet the stricter emission regulations of internal combustion engines based on fossil fuels, the proportion of after-treatments for vehicles and (ocean going) vessels is increasing continuously. As diesel engines have high power and good fuel economy in addition to less CO2 emissions, their market share is increasing not only in commercial vehicles, but also in passenger cars. Because of the characteristics of the diesel combustion, however, NOx is generated in localized high-temperature combustion regions, and particulates are formed in the zones of diffusion combustion. LNT and urea-SCR catalysts have been developed for the after-treatment of exhaust gas to reduce NOx in diesel vehicles. This study examined the effect of a containing promoter on SCR catalysts to cope with the severe exhaust gas regulation. The de-NOx performance of the Mn-SCR catalyst was the best, and the de-NOx performance was improved as the ion exchange rate between Mn ion and Zeolyst was good and the activation energy was low. The de-NOx performance of the 7Cu-15Ba/78Zeoyst catalyst was 32% at $200^{\circ}C$ and 30% at $500^{\circ}C$, and showed the highest performance. The NOx storage material of BaO loaded as a promoter was well dispersed in the Cu-SCR catalyst and the additional de-NOx performance of BaO was affected by the reduction reaction of the Cu-SCR catalyst. Among the three catalysts, the 7Cu-15Ba/Zeolyst SCR catalyst was resistant to thermal degradation. The same type of CuO due to thermal degradation migrates and agglomerates because BaO reduces the agglomeration of the main catalyst CuO particles.

전 세계적으로 환경문제를 해결하기 위한 방안으로 환경규제를 강화시키며 특히 다양한 대기오염 물질 중 최근 큰 이슈인 초미세먼지 저감을 위해 전구물질로 알려진 질소산화물을 제어하기 위한 다양한 기술개발이 가속화되고 있다. 특히, 다양한 처리기술 중에 기술적·경제적인 이점을 갖춘 선택적 촉매환원법(selective catalytic reduction, SCR) 기술을 통하여 질소산화물 제거를 위해 암모니아를 환원제로 반응에 참여시켜 인체에 무해한 H₂O, N₂로 전환하는 기술이 대표적이다. 최근 전 세계적으로 다양한 산업군에서 질소산화물이 배출되고 있으며, 점오염원뿐만이 아니라 비점오염원(mobile sources)에 대한 규제가 강화되고 있다. 디젤엔진이 장착된 선박 배가스 처리장치 내 SCR 기술이 주목을 받고 있으며, NH₃-SCR에 사용되는 촉매는 주로 VO_x/TiO₂, VO_x/W/TiO₂ 촉매가 대표적이다. 한편 선박 디젤엔진에 사용되는 연료에 따라 연소배가스 특성이 다르다. 이러한 연료가 연소됨에 따라 SO₂, SO₃가 발생되고 환원제인 NH₃와 결합하여 황산암모늄염((NH₄)₂SO₄), ABS (ammonium bisulfate, NH₄HSO₄)과 같은 염을 형성시켜 탈질촉매의 비활성화 문제가 발생된다. 이러한 비활성화 물질이 침적된 탈질촉매를 재활성화 시키기 위하여 열 산화를 통해 재생시키고 있다. 이처럼 선박용 SCR 촉매는 강화되는 배출규제 및 엔진기술의 발달로 저감되는 운전 온도에 대비하여 저온 활성 재생이 가능한 고활성, 고내구성 촉매기술 개발이 필요하다.

This research focused on the spray and distribution characteristics of urea solution by applying flow visualization techniques and did durability and driver test on injectors as well. The spray characteristics of urea solution was observed by CCD camera. Also, the distribution characteristics of urea solution was evaluated quantitatively as well by using 3D laser scanner equipment. It was considered that it was reasonable to use the injector for gasoline engine in order to inject the urea. The best distribution chart result was observed near 45cm distance difference between catalyst and urea spray injector. As a result of trapped urea distribution chart analysis, optimal pressure and volumetric flow rates of air and urea were derived in order to improve the distribution of Urea. This information may contribute to provide fundamental data in the future.
