A mathematical modeling of $NO_x$ reduction in $NH_3$-SCR process is conducted. The present deterministic model solves one-dimensional conservation equations of mass and species concentrations for channel flows and the catalytic reaction. NO and NO_2$ reactions by the vanadium catalyst in the presence of $NH_3$ are calculated with the rate expressions of Langmuir-Hinshelwood scheme. The modeling was validated with extensive empirical data regarding $NO_x$ reduction efficiency. Analysis of De-$NO_x$ sensitivity conducted with regard to oxygen and water yielded highly accurate prediction over a wide range of $NO_2/NO_x$ ratios from 0 to 1 in a temperature range of $200^{\circ}C{\sim}550^{\circ}C$. The $NO_x$ reduction largely depends on $NO_2/NO_x$ ratio at temperatures lower than $300^{\circ}C$. NO reduction efficiency is significantly augmented with increasing in $NH_3$/NO ratio at higher temperatures, whereas rather insensitive to the $NH_3$/NO ratio at lower temperatures.

In this study, ammonia consumption by gas turbine output was adjusted to find out the amount of ammonia consumption that complies with the enhanced Air Quality Preservation Act and internal regulation emission standards in SCR type DeNOx System for a 580 MW Sejong Combined Cycle Power Plant. For measurements, the gas turbine output was varied to 50, 99, 149, 198 MW and ammonia consumption was adjusted with the combustion gas and ammonia supply conditions fixed at each stage. When the emission limit were change from 10 ppm to 8 ppm, ammonia consumption was increased from 78, 93, 105, 133 kg/h to 89, 113, 132, 176 kg/h. The increase rate of ammonia consumption was 14, 22, 26, 32% per output category compared to the 10 ppm emission limit, which was shown to increase as output increased.

This study tested the effect of de-NOx Facility operating condition on Nox emisiion in a 125 MW wood pellet power plant in Yeongdong Eco Power Plant Unit 1, which is in operation. As SNCR urea flow rate increased, NOx emission gradually decreased, but ammonia slip after SCR increased. The boiler under test has a structure that is unfavorable to SNCR operation due to the high internal temperature, and the optimum location of the nozzle will be required. SCR dilution air temperature change did not affect the amount of NOx generated. Increasing SCR ammonia flow reduced the NOx emission at SCR outlet and also increased the NOx removal efficiency. However, the ammonia flow rate of 111 kg/h, which does not exceed the ammonia slip its own reference limit, is estimated to be the maximum operating standard. The increase in SCR mixer pressure reduced NOx emission and the removal efficiency was also measured to be the most effective variable to inhibit NOx production.

SCR(Selective Catalytic Reduction) is a major after-treatment solution to reduce NOx emission in recent diesel engines. In this study, a metal foam is applied as an alternative SCR substrate and tested in a commercial diesel engine to compared with a conventional ceramic SCR system. Basic engine test from ND-13 mode shows that a metal foam catalyst has lower NOx conversion efficiency than a ceramic catalyst especially over $350^{\circ}C$. A metal foam catalyst has characteristics of high exhaust gas pressure before a SCR catalyst and high heat transfer rate due to its material and structure. NOx conversion efficiency of a metal foam catalyst shows an increasing tendency along with the increase of exhaust gas temperature by $500^{\circ}C$. The effect of urea injection quantity variation is also remarkable only at high exhaust gas temperature.

The effects of an urea injection at the exhaust pipe for a 4-cylinder DI(Direct Injection) diesel engine were investigated with the parameters such as urea-SCR(Selective Catalytic Reduction) and EGR system. The urea quantity was controlled by NOx quantity and MAF(Manifold Air Flow). The urea injection quantity can be controlled with the urea syringe pump, precisely. The effects of NOx reduction for the urea-SCR system were investigated with and without ECR engine, respectively. It was concluded that the SUF(Stoichiometric Urea Flow) is calculated and the NOx results are visualized with engine speed and load. Furthermore, the NOx map is made from this experimental results. It was suggested, therefore, that NOx reduction effects of the urea-SCR system without the EGR engine were better than that with the EGR engine except of low load and low speed.

A highly sensitive and selective non-enzymatic glucose sensor has gained great attention because of simple signal transformation, low-cost, easily handling, and confirming the blood glucose as the representative technology. Until now, glucose sensor has been developed by the immobilization of glucose oxidase (GOx) on the surface of electrodes. However although GOx is quite stable compared with other enzymes, the enzyme-based biosensors are still impacted by various environment factors such as temperature, pH value, humidity, and toxic chemicals. Non-enzymatic sensor for direct detecting glucose is an attractive alternative device to overcome the above drawbacks of enzymatic sensor. Many efforts have been tried for the development of non-enzymatic sensors using various transition metals (Pt, Au, Cu, Ni, etc.), metal alloys (Pt-Pb, Pt-Au, Ni-Pd, etc.), metal oxides, carbon nanotubes and graphene. In this paper, we show that Ni-based nano-particles (NiNPs) exhibit remarkably catalyzing capability for glucose originating from the redox couple of $Ni(OH)_2/NiOOH$ on the surface of ITO electrode in alkaline medium. But, these non-enzymatic sensors are nonselective toward oxidizable species such as ascorbic acid the physiological fluid. So, the anionic polymer was coated on NiNPs electrode preventing the interferences. The oxidation of glucose was highly catalyzed by NiNPs. The catalytically anodic currents were linearly increased in proportion to the glucose concentration over the 0~6.15 mM range at 650 mV versus Ag/AgCl.

VWTi, which is used as a commercial catalyst in NH3-SCR, exhibits excellent denitrification performance at 300 to 400 ℃, but there is a problem that efficiency decreases at low temperatures below 300 ℃. Research on catalysts containing promoter to increase low-temperature denitrification efficiency is steadily progressing. However, research on the cause of the improvement in low-temperature denitrification efficiency of the catalyst and the catalyst properties is insufficient. In this study, it was confirmed that by adding Sb to VWTi, denitrification performance was improved by more than 10% in NH3-SCR reaction below 300 ℃. At this time, the space velocity and the size of the catalyst particles were controlled to exclude the influence of external/internal diffusion. In addition, the catalytic properties according to the presence or absence of Sb were investigated by performing BET, TEM/EDS, O2-TPD, H2-TPR and DRIFTs analysis. It was judged that the addition of Sb increased the adsorbed oxygen species on the surface of the catalyst, thereby enhancing the redox properties of the catalyst at low temperature and exhibiting excellent denitrification performance.

A method for measuring and analyzing the $NO_x$ in ships is described in $NO_x$ Technical Code 2008. The analysis device, as required by the Code, has been to use a Chemi-luminescence detection method or Heated Chemi-luminescence detection. on the other hand, selective catalytic reduction using $NH_3$ as a reducing agent has an interference effect on the analyzer, and causes measurement error. In this study, the Chemi-luminescence detection method was examined according to how it affects the concentration of $O_2$, CO, $SO_2$, $NH_3$. Fourier transform infrared spectrometry analysis equipment and measurement methods were compared. In order to confirm the effect of the physical interference of the measuring device, it was confirmed by decomposing a measuring device. Consequently, white precipitate and moisture were generated inside the chemiluminescence detection system and I found that affecting interference. The influence of interference highlights the need to consider the minimized $NO_x$ measurement method.

Diesel engines have important advantages over its gasoline counterpart including high thermal efficiency, high fuel economy and low emissions of CO, HC and $CO_2$. However, NOx reducing is more difficult on diesel engines because of the high $O_2$ concentration in the exhaust, marking general three way catalytic converter ineffective. Two method available technologies for continuous NOx reduction onboard diesel engines are Urea-SCR and LNT. The implementation of the Urea-SCR systems in design engines have made it possible for 2.5l and over engines to meet the tightened NOx emission standard of Euro-6. In this study, we investigate the characteristics of NOx reduction with respect to engine speed, load, types of catalyst and the $NH_3$/NOx ratio and present the conditions which maximize NOx reduction. Also we provide detailed experimental data on Urea-SCR which can be used for the preparation for standards beyond Euro-6.
