Page 3 gives a summary of the most important result in a figure illustrating in a semi-quantitative way the conditions in the specified CSTR. As can be seen on line 74, Dar is somewhat larger than the critical value but the concentration difference on line 75 is small, so this result can be accepted with some reservations. The Carberry number is also larger than the criteria, therefore these experimental results are marginal for Nox abatement... 

MW power. Assuming the power output is proportional to the mass flow through the turbine, estimate the power output with NOx abatement. 

The replacement of vanadia-based catalysts in the reduction of NOx with ammonia is of interest due to the toxicity of vanadium. Tentative investigations on the use of noble metals in the NO + NH3 reaction have been nicely reviewed by Bosch and Janssen [85], More recently, Seker et al. [86] did not completely succeed on Pt/Al203 with a significant formation of N20 according to the temperature and the water composition. Moreover, 25 ppm S02 has a detrimental effect on the selectivity with selectivity towards the oxidation of NH3 into NO enhanced above 300°C. Supported copper-based catalysts have shown to exhibit excellent activity for NOx abatement. Recently Suarez et al and Blanco et al. [87,88] reported high performances of Cu0/Ni0-Al203 monolithic catalysts with NO/NOz = 1 at low temperature. Different oxidic copper species have been previously identified in those catalytic systems with Cu2+, copper aluminate and CuO species [89], Subsequent additions of Ni2+ in octahedral sites of subsurface layers induce a redistribution of Cu2+ with a surface copper enrichment. Such redistribution... 

Another technology under consideration for NOx abatement in diesel vehicles is the LNT, which is also commonly called the NOx adsorber catalyst (NAC) or NOx storage/reduction catalyst (NSRC). 

This represents the typical feed mixture to SCR converters when no oxidation precatalyst is applied, as for instance in the case of NOx abatement from stationary sources. With such a feed mixture the main deNOx reaction occurring over V-based catalysts is the so-called standard SCR (R6 in Table V). Transient experiments in a wide range of temperatures (50-550°Q were performed in order to develop a suitable kinetic model of the NH3-N0/02 reacting system. The study of the standard SCR kinetics was particularly focused on the characteristics that are critical for mobile applications, namely the behavior during transient operation and the reactivity in the low temperature region.

The primary pollution problem in nitric add manufacture is the abatement of nitrogen oxides (NOx) in tail gases. In the United States in 1998, gaseous emissions from newly constructed nitric add plants must be limited to 1.5 kilograms of NOx per tonne of nitric add (100% basis) produced, with a maximum stack opacity of 10%. Modern add towers, with extended sections, can reduce NOx emissions to less than 200 parts per million35. Production of ammonia also involves the combustion of hydrocarbons so NOx abatement must also be addressed for this product as well.

In order to optimise the catalytic processes involving NOx abatement and total combustion of volatile organic compounds (VOC), it is prerequisite to elucidate the mechanism of these processes. In the lecture three processes will be discussed.

The burning of coal in thermal power plants results in major pollutants such as suspended particulate matter (SPM), sulphur dioxide (SO2), oxides of nitrogen (NOx) etc, of vdiich NOx is believed to be a key con nent responsible for several hazards associated with ecology and human health(l). Given the relative abundance of coal in India, coal-based thermal power plants will continue to play a dominant role in the power sector. Therefore NOx abatement through primary and secondary measures assumes great importance. Post combustion techniques such as selective catalytic reduction (SCR) can reduce NOx emissions by >95% (2). 

Rare earths in SOx and NOx abatement additives for FCC. Sulfur oxides can be formed in the regenerator due to the oxidation of the sulfur compounds contained in the coke. There are four options to abate SOx emissions in FCC units Processing low-sulfur feeds (S < 0.3%), hydrodesulfurization of the feed, flue gas scrubbing, and the use of SOx additives. 

The waves behave in the exliaust as they do in the inlet. Tliey are only travelling at liigher speeds due to exliaust temperatures. So you can also imagine a variable exliaust pipe which creates a depression at exhaust valve closure, if you want to increase the torque, and an overpressure, if you want to increase the internal exliaust gas recirculation very efficient means for NOx abatement. However the cost of an exhaust butterfly is much higher than its inlet equivalent and they will probably be reserved for E.G.R. and may be for prompt E.G.R., an interesting idea which is described in the (fig.3).
