TLDR
In this article, the concentrations of NO and NO 2 in nitrogen oxides contained in an exhaust gas are adjusted to substantially equal concentrations, whereupon the exhaust gas is held in contact with a metallic oxide catalyst together with ammonia.
Abstract
The concentrations of NO and NO 2 in nitrogen oxides contained in an exhaust gas are adjusted to substantially equal mol concentrations, whereupon the exhaust gas is held in contact with a metallic oxide catalyst together with ammonia. Owing to the adjustment of the NO and NO 2 concentrations in the nitrogen oxides, the reaction rate is enhanced, and the nitrogen oxides are reduced even at a low temperature. The adjustment of the concentrations of NO and NO 2 in the nitrogen oxides is done by the oxidation of NO with ozone, the catalytic oxidation of NO with air or oxygen, the addition of nitric acid, the addition of NO or NO 2 , etc.

Catalysts for selective catalytic reduction denox technology

TL;DR: In this article, a support for selective catalytic reduction of NOx by ammonia is made from porous formed supports having a certain fraction of the pores having pore diameters larger than 600 Angstrom units, and macropores are introduced in a formed TiO₂ support by adding burnout materials or some inorganic oxide prior to forming the titania into the formed support.

Process for removing nox and sox from exhaust gas

TL;DR: In this article, exhaust gases containing oxides of nitrogen and sulfur from a fired process heater, a fossil fuel fired boiler, or a chemical process are diverted from a stack prior to admission to the atmosphere through a duct system containing heat exchangers that reduce the exhaust gas from an elevated temperature, if any, to about ambient temperature.

Process for the reduction of the ignition temperature of diesel soot

TL;DR: In this paper, a process for reducing the ignition temperature of diesel soot is described, which involves contacting a hot exhaust from a diesel engine, which exhaust contains diesel soots, with a catalytic composite, which comprises a particulate filter coated with a sulfur resistant refractory inorganic oxide selected from the group consisting of titania, zirconia, silica, and silica-alumina.

Process for removal of nox from fluid streams

TL;DR: In this article, a process and apparatus for removing nitrogen oxides from a gas stream is described, which is characterized by passing the gas stream through a first catalytic zone in the absence of added ammonia and in the presence of an oxidation catalyst to convert the NO content thereof to NO 2.
