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.

완전혼합 반응기에서 외부로의 열손실이 $CH_4/air$예혼합화염의 NOx 생성특성에 미치는 영향을 수치해석으로 검토하였다. 주요 결과로서, 단열조건에서 NOx는 체류시간에 따라 급격히 증가하는 반면에, 열손실이 고려될 때 열전 달 상수와 체류시간의 증가에 따라 NOx 저감현상이 뚜렷하게 발생하였다. 민감도 해석을 통해 열손실율이 증가함에 따라 Thermal NO 기구와 Re-burning NO 기구는 NOx 저감에 크게 기여하는 반면, Prompt NO 기구와 $N_2O$-경유 NO 기구는 오히려 NOx 증가에 기여함을 확인하였다. NOx 생성기구는 열전달 상수 및 체류시간의 변화에 따라 매우 복합한 특성을 갖지만, NOx 농도는 독립된 Thermal NO 기구에 의해 표현될 수 있었다. 이를 통해 실용 $CH_4/air$예혼합 연소기에서 NOx 농도를 예측할 수 있는 열손실율과 체류시간을 조합한 새로운 NOx 상관식이 도출되었다.

Combined De-NOx Process in which $NH_3$ SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) and non-thermal Plasma Process are simultaneously used, has been investigated with a pilot test facility. The pilot test facility treats the combustion flue gases exhausted from a diesel engine that generates 240 kW of electrical power. Test results show that up to 80 % of NOx (NO and NO2) can be removed at 100 - $200^{\circ}C$. None of conventional De-NOx techniques works under such low temperature range. In addition to NOx. the Pilot test results show that soot can be simultaneously treated with the present non-thermal plasma technique. The present pilot test shows that the electrical power consumption to operate the non-thermal plasma reactor is equivalent to 3 - 4 % of the electrical power generated by the diesel engine.

일반적으로 연소로는 연료의 연소과정에서 NOx, CO등의 공해물질을 배출한다. 본 연구는 소각연소로를 대상으로 2차 공기를 연소가스 흐름의 역방향으로 주입시키는 방법의 NOx 및 CO 배출특성에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 연구의 주요변수는 1, 2차 공기의 유량비와 2차 공기의 투입 방향으로 설정하였다. 변수에 따른 NOx 및 CO 배출특성을 묘사하기 위해서 축소모형실험 연구를 수행하였다. 실험결과 1차 공기유량이 감소하고 2차 공기유량이 증가할수록 NOx가 감소되다가 일정 유량비 이상에서 다시 NOx가 다소 증가하는 형태가 나타났다. 역방향으로 빠른 유속의 2차 공기가 투입될 때 연소로 내부에 유동 재순환이 발생하여 혼합이 증가하고 이로 인해서 온도 영역이 고르게 분포되는 것으로 나타났으며 그 결과로서 thermal NOx의 저감 효과를 확인할 수 있었다. CO는 2차 공기가 역방향에서 높은 비율로 투입되는 조건이외에서는 측정되지 않았다. 측정된 경우도 CO의 농도는 2 ppm 이내로 안정적인 연소 조건으로 나타났다.

It was numerically studied that NOx emission characteristics of confined $CH_{4}$ jet flames with the variation of the diameter of inner fuel nozzle, the flow rate of $CH_{4}$ and equivalence ratio. Parabolic type equations were adopted in the calculation and GRI-2.1I mechanism was used for the chemical reaction. NOx emission index (EINOx) was introduced to evaluate NOx emission quantitatively in parametrically varied flames and the contribution of Thermal and Prompt NO mechanism was discussed. The results showed that Total EINOx varied sensitively with the variation of the flow rate of$CH_{4}$ but it was not sensitive to the variation of the diameter of inner fuel nozzle. Thermal EINOx showed the similar tendency to total EINOx and Prompt EINOx showed insensitivity to the variation of the diameter of inner fuel nozzle and the flow rate of $CH_{4}$.

$TiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$를 담체로 한 Pt계 촉매에서 NOx, soot의 동시 제거 반응과 촉매의 열충격에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 실험은 NOx와 soot의 반응을 독립 또는 동시에 반응시킨 조건으로 수행하였으며 그 결과 담체의 종류 및 상에 따라서 서로 상이한 NOx 제거능력과 soot 산화력을 나타내었고, soot의 산화시작온도의 결정은 NOx 제거능력과 상관관계가 있었다. NOx, soot의 동시 반응 시에는 생성된 $NO_2$에 의하여 soot 산화시작온도가 저온으로 이동하였다. 또한 열충격에 대한 NOx 제거율은 Pt/$Al_2O_3$ 촉매가 Pt/$TiO_2$ 촉매에 비하여 효율저하가 적게 일어났으며 soot 산화력은 활성점인 Pt의 소결현상에 의하여 촉매에 관계없이 모두 감소하였다.

The NOx emission characteristics of jet flames fueled with $H_2$ and $CH_4$ were studied. Experimental and numerical investigations were carried out for various flames with varying equivalence ratio, fuel flow rate and nozzle diameter. The Emission indices of NOx(EINOx) were measured by chemiluminescent method and calculated by simulation using detailed chemistry. The results show that EINOx of $CH_4$ and $H_2$ flames have different trends in terms of equivalence ratio and fuel flow rate but have the same trends in terms of nozzle diameter. These differences can be explained by the following Thermal and Prompt trends in both flames. Thermal EINOx trends can be describe in function of residence time in the high-temperature region weighted by the maximum flame temperature and Prompt EINOx trends can be described in function of flame surface area of each combustion conditions.

The NOx emission characteristics of jet flames fueled with $H_2\;and\;CH_4$ were studied. Experimental and numerical investigations were carried out for various flames with varying equivalence ratio, fuel flow rate and nozzle diameter. The Emission indices of NOx(EINOx) were measured by chemiluminescent method and calculated by numerical model based on detailed chemistry. The results show that EINOx of $CH_4\;and\;H_2$ flames have different trends in terms of equivalence ratio and fuel flow rate but have the same trends in terms of nozzle diameter. These differences can be explained by the following Thermal and Prompt trends in both flames. Thermal EINOx is quite sensitive to the residence time in the high-temperature region weighted by the maximum flame temperature. Prompt EINOx is mainly influenced by flame surface area of each combustion conditions.

Experimental studies are conducted to investigate the flame stability and the thermal/fuel NOx formation characteristics of the low calorific value(LCV) gas fuel. Synthetic LCV fuel gas is produced through mixing carbon monoxide, hydrogen, nitrogen and ammonia on the basis that the thermal input of the syngas fuel into a burner is identical to that of natural gas, and then the syngas mixture is fed to and burnt with air on flat flame burner. Flame behaviors are observed to identify flame instability due to blow-off or flash-back when burning the LCV fuel gas at various equivalence ratio conditions. Measurements of NOx in combustion gas are made for comparing thermal and fuel NOx emissions from the LCV syngas combustion with those of the natural gas one, and for analyzing ammonia to NOx conversion mechanism. In addition, the nitrogen dilution of the LCV syngas is preliminarily attempted as a NOx reduction technique.

Experimental studies are conducted to investigate the flame stability and the thermal/fuel NOx formation characteristics of the low calorific value (LCV) coal derived gas fuel. Synthetic LCV fuel gas is produced by mixing carbon monoxide, hydrogen, nitrogen and ammonia on the basis that the thermal input of the syngas fuel into a burner is identical to that of natural gas. The syngas mixture is fed to and burnt with air on flat flame burner. With the variation of the equivalence ratio for specific syngas fuel, flame behaviors are observed to identify the flame instability due to blow-off or flashback and to define stable combustion range. Measurements of NOx content in combustion gas are made for comparing thermal and fuel NOx from the LCV syngas combustion with those of the natural gas one. In addition, the nitrogen dilution of the LCV syngas is preliminarily attempted as a NOx reduction technique, and its effects on thermal and fuel NOx production are discussed.
