Characterization of NOx species in dehydrated and hydrated Na- and Ba-Y, FAU zeolites formed in NO2 adsorption

Adsorbed ionic NO_x species formed upon the interaction of NO₂ with dehydrated or hydrated Na- and Ba-Y, FAU zeolites were characterized using FT-IR/TPD, solid state NMR, and XANES techniques. NO₂ disproportionates on both dehydrated catalyst materials forming NO⁺ and NO₃⁻ species. These ionic species are stabilized by their interactions with the negatively charged zeolite framework and the charge compensating cations (Na⁺ and Ba²⁺), respectively. Although the nature of the adsorbed NO_x species formed on the two catalysts is similar, their thermal stabilities are strongly dependent on the charge compensating cations. In the presence of water in the channels of these zeolite materials new paths open for reactions between NO⁺ and H₂O, and NO₂ and H₂O, resulting in significant changes in the adsorbed ionic species observed. These combined spectroscopic investigations afforded the understanding of the interactions between water and NO₂ on these zeolite catalysts.     

The study of electron beam flue gas treatment for coal-fired thermal plant in Japan

The fundamental research work with simulated coal-fired flue gas was performed in JAERI to get basic data for electron beam treatment of flue gas from thermal power plants in Japan. The standard condition of the experiments was set to be the same as that of next large scale pilot test in Nagoya. The concentrations of NO_x and SO_x were 225 ppm and 800 ppm, respectively. The temperature of the system was 65°C. The effect of multiple irradiation was observed for NO_x removal. The target SO_x and NO_x removals (94% and 80%, respectively) with low NH₃ leakage (less than 10 ppm) were achieved at 9 kGy irradiation with 0.9 NH₃ stoichiometry during 7 hours continuous operation. The facility for the pilot plant (12,000 Nm³/hr) has just built at the site of Shin-Nagoya power plant of Chubu Electric Power Company and will be started in full operation in November 1992.     

Computed Potential Energy Surfaces and Minimum Energy Pathways for Chemical Reactions

Computed potential energy surfaces are often required for computation of such observables as rate constants as a function of temperature, product branching ratios, and other detailed properties. We have found that computation of the stationary points/reaction pathways using CASSCF/derivative methods, followed by use of the internally contracted CI method with the Dunning correlation consistent basis sets to obtain accurate energetics, gives useful results for a number of chemically important systems. Applications to complex reactions leading to NO_x and soot formation in hydrocarbon combustion are discussed.     

The Adsorption of NOx on Magnesium Aluminium Hydrotalcite

Magnesium aluminium hydrotalcite (Mg-Al-HT) with molar ratio of Mg-to-Al of 3 to 1 was prepared and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and infrared spectra (IR). The performances of Mg-Al-HT for the adsorption and desorption of NOx were studied. The results indicated that the adsorption capacity of the hydrotalcite for NOx was 1398.2mg/g, and it was higher than the acticarbon‘s. The adsorption capacities depended on adsorption time and temperature.Mg-Al-HT could be regenerated by thermal decomposition, and the adsorption efficiency had not changed markedly after three cycles.     

垃圾衍生燃料流化床燃烧过程中HCl和NOx的排放研究

在床总高为4040mm的变截面流化床中试规模装置内，研究垃圾衍生燃料(RDF)在气化和燃烧不同阶段中NOx和HCl的生成特性。含NaCl的垃圾衍生燃料在流化床内燃烧，燃烧低于640℃时，Ca(OH)2的脱氯效果比较好;但随着温度升高，烟气中HCl的体积分数迅速增长，但脱氯效果明显受到CaCl2化学反应平衡的限制。燃烧状况特别是氧的体积分数对NOx的生成影响比较大。含氮量高的RDF燃烧产生NOx的体积分数明显高于低含氮燃料所产生的。     

铁铈复合氧化物催化剂SCR脱硝的改性研究

利用共沉淀法制备了铁铈催化剂,考察添加钛、锆、钨和钼对其SCR脱硝的改性规律。结果表明,钨和钼的添加提高了铁铈催化剂高温脱硝性能,却使其低温活性有所降低;钛的添加对铁铈催化剂脱硝性能具有促进作用,尤其提高了其低温活性,并拓宽了其完全转化温度窗口,为最佳改性物。当钛的物质的量比逐渐由0.10增至0.40,铁铈钛催化剂低温脱硝效率先增大后减小,但其高温脱硝效率逐渐增大至100%,钛的最佳物质的量比为0.15。XRD和N₂吸附分析结果表明,钛能优化铁铈催化剂的孔隙结构,增大其比表面积和比孔容,细化其孔径,并与催化剂中铁、铈氧化物形成良好的固溶体,从而提高了铁铈催化剂的SCR脱硝性能。Fe_0.8Ce_0.05Ti_0.15O_z催化剂在150～400℃取得了高于90%的NO_x转化率。     

K/LiCoO2的制备及其同时催化去除碳烟和NOx的性能研究

采用溶液燃烧法和浸渍法制备了铜铁矿结构的钴酸锂(LiCoO2)及其负载K的系列催化剂样品,并通过XRD、NOx-TPD、H2-TPR、程序升温反应等对其进行了结构表征与性能评价.结果表明LiCoO2是一种能有效同时去除碳烟(PM)和NOx的催化剂;K负载可提高其催化活性,其中10%K/LiCoO2具有最低的PM起燃温度(246℃)和最大NOx→N2转化率(35.9%);催化剂表面生成的O2-/O-活性氧物种以及较强的NOx吸附存储能力可能是K/LiCoO2催化活性提高的原因.     

SO2 Resisting Pd-doped Pr1-xCexMnO3 Perovskites for Efficient Denitration at Low Temperature

H₂-SCR is served as the promising technology for the controlling of NO_x emission, and the Pd-based derivative catalyst exhibited high NO_x reduction performance. Effectively regulating the electronic configuration of the active component is favorable to the rational optimization of noble Pd. In this work, a series of Pr_1-xCe_xMn_1-yPd_yO₃@Ni were successfully synthesized and exhibited superior NO conversion efficiency at low temperatures. 92.7 % conversion efficiency was achieved at 200 °C over Pr_0.9Ce_0.1Mn_0.9Pd_0.1O₃@Ni in the presence of 4 % O₂ with a GHSV of 32000 h⁻¹. Meanwhile, the outstanding performance was obtained in the resistance to SO₂ (200 ppm) and H₂O (8 %). Deduced from the results of XRD, Raman, XPS, and H₂-TPR, the modification of d orbit states in palladium was confirmed originating from the incorporation in the B site of Pr_0.9Ce_0.1Mn_0.9Pd_0.1O₃. The existence of higher valence (Pd³⁺ and Pd⁴⁺) than the bivalence in Pr_0.9Ce_0.1Mn_0.9Pd_0.1O₃ catalyst was evidenced by XPS analysis. Our research provides a new sight into the H₂-SCR through the higher utilization of Pd.

A functional analysis of NOx levels: location and scale estimation and outlier detection

This paper analyzes the NOx levels measured by a control station near a power plant by using techniques for functional data. First, we test for differences between the levels on working and non working days. Second, we obtain several location estimators and confidence sets of the center of the functional distribution. Third, we provide scale estimators and confidence sets of the dispersion of the functional distribution. Finally, a distance based procedure provides a criterion to determinate the presence of outlying observations, which allows to detect relevant NOx levels.
