In this study, effects of temperature, NSR, and oxygen concentration on the $NO_x$ removal efficiency of an SNCR process were investigated experimentally as well as numerically using CHEMKIN-II program. The NO removal efficiency increased with the reactor temperature under oxygen-free condition, whereas when the oxygen concentration was 4%, the NO removal efficiency showed a maximum value at $900{\sim}950^{\circ}C$. The pressure of oxygen was shown to enhance the NO removal at low temperature. Regardless of the oxygen concentration, the NO removal efficiency increased with NSR. The temperature and NSR-dependencies of the NO removal efficiency predicted by CHEMKIN-II simulations were similar to that of the experimental results.
