To improve the performance of plasma-DeNOx catalyst, a research on active system was performed experimentally. Two hydrocarbons, propane and diesel, were used as a reductant in this study. First, using propane, basic performances of plasma-DeNOx catalyst such as the effects of plasma and C/N ratio were measured at the various engine operating conditions. NOx conversion of catalyst was improved as plasma power or C/N ratio was increased. Next, diesel was injected in the exhaust gas flow as a reductant. The first test using diesel as a reductant is spray visualization in a high temperature flow and spray images were utilized for analysis of posterior test results. To evaluate the effect of an injection direction, it was compared with 6 installation methods of diesel injector due to THC concentrations at the inlet of plasma. From the results, injector was installed toward downstream direction below the pipe. Then, basic performances of plasma-DeNOx catalyst with various injection quantities were measured. As an injection quantity was increased, $NO_2$ conversion of plasma reactor was increased but NOx conversion of catalyst was nearly zero. This was because NOx conversion of catalyst had slowed as time goes by due to black particles which had been adhered to the catalyst.

In this study, the indirect correlation of degradation characteristic and flow behavior in the de-NOx catalyst is investigated experimentally. The inner flow behavior in the de-NOx catalyst is varied from turbulent flow to laminar flow and the degradation of the de-NOx catalyst is remarkably affected by the inner flow. The degradation of the catalyst is increased in the upstream region near the inlet because injected turbulent flow enhances the adhesion of ash particle on the catalyst surface. The degradation of the catalyst near the inlet also governs the overall efficiency of the catalyst. The amount of adhered ash particles on the catalyst surface decreases as they progress downstream. This is due to the inner flow transition from turbulent flow to laminar flow.

In this study, we investigated the conversion performance of de-NOx catalyst for lean-burn natural gas engine. As a de-NOx catalyst, NOx storage reduction catalyst was composed of Pt, Pd and Rh with washcoat including Ba and Ni, Ru-ZSM-5. Ni, Ru-ZSM-5, which was regarded as a NOx direct decomposition catalyst, was made up of ion exchanged ZSM-5 by 5wt.% Ni or Ru. The performance of de-NOx catalyst was evaluated by NOx storage capacity and catalytic reduction in air/fuel, $\lambda=1.6$. The catalytic reaction was also observed when the added fuel was supplied to fuel rich atmosphere by fuel spike period of 5 seconds. The NOx conversion of the catalysts with Ni-ZSM-5 or Ru-ZSM-5 was mainly caused by the effect of NOx adsorption of Ba rather than the catalytic reduction of Ni, Ru-ZSM-5. Ni, Ru-ZSM-5 catalysts can not use for the NSR catalyst because they have quick process in thermal deactivation.

폐 RHDM(Residue Hydrodemetallation) 촉매상에 침적된 비활성화 성분인 탄소, 황 을 고온배소 처리하여 제거한 후, 과량 침적되어 있는 바나듐은 초음파 교반기에서 5~15wt% 옥살산 수용액을 이용하여 $50^{\circ}C$, 5분 조건하에 바나듐 추출량을 조절함으로써 NOx 저감을 위한SCR(Selective Catalytic Reduction) 촉매로의 적용 가능성을 확인하고자 하였다. 폐촉매와 단계별 처리된 RHDM 촉매를 대상으로 상압반응기상에서 NOx 저감 효율을 측정하였고, 촉매의 성분분석은 ICP, C & S analyzer 및 XRF를 이용하여 분석하였다. 10wt% 옥살산 수용액으로 바나듐을 침출한 촉매가 가장 안정적이었으며 높은 NOx 저감 효율을 보였다. 이를 메탈폼 형태의 지지체에 워시코팅한 촉매는 상용 SCR 촉매와 동등 수준의 NOx 저감 효율을 나타내었다. 따라서 폐 RHDM 촉매의 처리 조건 조정에 관한 후속 연구를 통하여 각 적용처에 적합한 SCR 촉매로의 이용 가능성은 충분할 것으로 사료된다.

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 the HC-DeHOx 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. It is expected that this study offers a robust data developing HC injection system.

최근 사업장 질소산화물(NOx) 배출허용기준 강화(2019년 1월 적용)에 따라 다량 배출사업장에서 배출되는 질소산화물을 배출허용기준 이하로 만족하기 위한 노력이 필요하다. 대표적인 질소산화물 저감 방법으로 선택적 촉매 환원법(selective catalytic reduction, SCR)을 주로 사용하고 있으며, 일반적으로 세라믹 허니컴(ceramic honeycomb) 촉매를 사용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 높은 열적 안정성과 기계적 강도를 가지는 금속지지체 탈질 코팅촉매를 적용하여 제철소에서 배출되는 질소산화물를 저감하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 금속지지체 코팅촉매는 최적화된 촉매슬러리(catalyst slurry) 코팅방법을 통해 제조하였고, 내마모 시험과 굽힙 시험을 통해 코팅된 촉매가 균일하고 강건하게 부착되어 있음을 확인하였다. 금속지지체가 가지는 우수한 열전도 특성으로 인해 저온영역(200 ~ 250 ℃)에서 세라믹 허니컴 촉매보다도 우수한 탈질효율을 보였다. 또한 경제적인 촉매 설계를 위해 금속지지체 표면 상에 코팅되는 촉매의 최적 코팅량을 확인하였다. 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 제철소 배기가스 모사환경에서 상용급 금속지지체 코팅촉매에 대한 준파일럿 탈질 성능평가를 수행하였고, 저온영역(220 ℃)에서도 배출허용기준치(60 ppm 이하)을 만족하는 우수한 성능을 나타내었다. 따라서 물리화학적 특성이 우수한 금속지지체 코팅촉매가 최소량의 촉매 사용으로도 우수한 탈질 성능을 나타내었으며, 넓은 비표면적을 가지는 고밀도 금속지지체 적용을 통해 배연 탈질 촉매 반응기의 콤팩트화 및 소형화가 가능하였다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로, 본 연구에서 사용된 금속지지체 코팅촉매는 제철소뿐만 아니라 화력발전, 소각장, 선박, 건설기계 등 다양한 산업 분야에 적용할 수 있는 새로운 형태의 촉매가 될 것이다.

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.

In this study we investigated on the possibility of platinum and silver catalysts as de-NOx catalyst for activity test of supported metal oxide catalysts. the study was performed with the change of amount of metal and support types. The catalyst was prepared the activity of alumina supported silver catalyst produced by dry and wet impregnation method respectively and the resistance of sulfur for optimum supported silver catalyst,. As a result the activity of alumina supported platinum catalyst was showed at low temperature region but the case of silver catalyst activated at high temperature region. So we finally chose alumina supported silver catalyst as de-NOx target catalyst because alumina supported catalyst showed higher activity than alumina supported platinum catalyst.

디젤자동차와 같이 희박연소 상태에서 많이 배출되는 질소산화물을 선택적 촉매환원(SCR)으로 제거하기 위하여 제올라이트와 금속산화물을 조합한 촉매를 석영 반응로에서 설험하였다. 환원제는 자동차 배출가스에 포함되어 있어 실용 가능성이 크다고 판단되는 탄화수소 중 안전성 및 환원효율이 좋은 올레핀계 탄화수소인 프로필렌을 사용하였다. 본 연구에서는 제올라이트 및 금속산화물계의 단일촉매 상태에서의 NOx 전환율을 파악하고, 저옹 및 고온에서 활성이 다른 촉매를 기계적으로 조합하여 NOx 전환 활성 온도창(Temperature Window)을 확대하고 내구성이 좋은 촉매를 찾고자 하였다 0.55wt%Pt-$TiO_2$/5wt%Cu-ZSM-5 촉매와 0.28wt%Pt-$TiO_2$/$Al_2O_3$ 촉매 및 1.1 wt%Pt-$TiO_2$/$Mn_2O_3$ 촉매 모두 $400^{\circ}C$를 변곡점으로 저온과 고온에서 NOx 제거활성이 있었는데, 저온에서 활성이 가장 큰 것은 0.28wt%Pt-$TiO_2$/$Al_2O_3$ 촉매이었고, 고온에서는 1.1wt%Pt-$TiO_2$/$Mn_2O_3$(21) 촉매가 제일 높은 활성을 보였다. 그러나 수분 및 아황산가스 공존시와 열적 내구성 면에서는 0.55wt%Pt-$TiO_2$/5wt% Cu-ZSM-5 촉매가 가장 우수하게 나타났다.

We sdudied effect of additives on catalytic activity in thermal catalytic de-NOx process which was composed of thermal reduction, catalytic reduction and catalytic oxidation stage. Pd-Pt/${\gamma}$-$Al_2O_3$ catalysts with the addition of transition metals(Co, Cu, Fe, Ni, W, Zn, Zr) and rare earth metals(Ce, Sr) were prepared by the conventional washcoating method. Those catalysts were characterized by CO pulse chemisorption, ICP, $N_2$ adsorption, SEM and XRD. The effect of catalyst additives on NOx removal for diesel emission was studied in thermal catalytic de-NOx process at reduction temperature(350~50$0^{\circ}C$), space velocity(5,000~20,000 $hr^{-1}$) and the engine load(0~120kW). The concentraton of CO, $CO_2$, NO and $NO_2$ in the exhaust gas increased with the engine load. On the other hand the concentration of $O_2$ decreased. The de-NOx activityof all prepared catalysts increased with respect to high CO and low $O_2$ level in the thermal reduction stage of the process. Insertion of Ce to Pt-Pd/${\gamma}$-$Al_2O_3$ catalyst showed the best activity of all the catalysts under these experimental conditions. De-NOx catalysts are effective to remove CO in addition to NOx in the catalytic reduction stage.
