This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The results of a 18-month investigation to advance the development of a novel Low Temperature Selective Catalytic and Adsorptive Reactor (LTSCAR), for the simultaneous removal of NO{sub x} and mercury (elemental and oxidized) from flue gases in a single unit operation located downstream of the particulate collectors, are reported. In the proposed LTSCAR, NO{sub x} removal is in a traditional SCR mode but at low temperature, and, uniquely, using carbon monoxide as a reductant. The concomitant capture of mercury in the unit is achieved through the incorporation of a novel chelating adsorbent. As conceptualized, the LTSCAR will be located downstream of the particulate collectors (flue gas temperature 140-160 C) and will be similar in structure to a conventional SCR. That is, it will have 3-4 beds that are loaded with catalyst and adsorbent allowing staged replacement of catalyst and adsorbent as required. Various Mn/TiO{sub 2} SCR catalysts were synthesized and evaluated for their ability to reduce NO at low temperature using CO as the reductant. It has been shown that with a suitably tailored catalyst more than 65% NO conversion with 100% N{sub 2} selectivity can be achieved, even at a high space velocity (SV) of 50,000 h-1 and in the presence of 2 v% H{sub 2}O. Three adsorbents for oxidized mercury were developed in this project with thermal stability in the required range. Based on detailed evaluations of their characteristics, the mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTS) adsorbent was found to be most promising for the capture of oxidized mercury. This adsorbent has been shown to be thermally stable to 200 C. Fixed-bed evaluations in the targeted temperature range demonstrated effective removal of oxidized mercury from simulated flue gas at very high capacity ({approx}>58 mg Hg/g adsorbent). Extension of the capability of the adsorbent to elemental mercury capture was pursued with two independent approaches: incorporation of a novel nano-layer on the surface of the chelating mercury adsorbent to achieve in situ oxidation on the adsorbent, and the use of a separate titania-supported manganese oxide catalyst upstream of the oxidized mercury adsorbent. Both approaches met with some success. It was demonstrated that the concept of in situ oxidation on the adsorbent is viable, but the future challenge is to raise the operating capacity beyond the achieved limit of 2.7 mg Hg/g adsorbent. With regard to the manganese dioxide catalyst, elemental mercury was very efficiently oxidized in the absence of sulfur dioxide. Adequate resistance to sulfur dioxide must be incorporated for the approach to be feasible in flue gas. A preliminary benefits analysis of the technology suggests significant potential economic and environmental advantages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Recipient proposes to produce new scientific and technical knowledge and tools to enable the discovery and deployment of highly effective materials for the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of nitrogen oxides (NOx) from lean combustion exhaust. A second goal is to demonstrate a closely coupled experimental and computational approach to heterogeneous catalysis research. These goals will be met through the completion of four primary technical objectives: First, an in-depth kinetic analysis will be performed on two prominent classes of NOx SCR catalysts, Fe- and Cu-exchanged beta and ZSM-5 zeolites, over a wide range of catalyst formulation and under identical, high conversion conditions as a function of gas phase composition. Second, the nanoscale structure and adsorption chemistry of these high temperature (HT) and low temperature (LT) catalysts will be determined using in situ and operando spectroscopy under the same reaction conditions. Third, first-principles molecular simulations will be used to model the metal-zeolite active sites, their adsorption chemistry, and key steps in catalytic function. Fourth, this information will be integrated into chemically detailed mechanistic and kinetic descriptions and models of the operation of these well- defined NOx SCR catalysts under practically relevant reaction conditions. The new knowledge and models that derive from this work will be published in the scientific literature.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Significant work has been done by the investigators on the cerium oxide-copper oxide based sorbent/catalysts for the combined removal of sulfur and nitrogen oxides from the flue gases of stationary sources. A relatively wide temperature window was established for the use of alumina-supported cerium oxide-copper oxide mixtures as regenerable sorbents for SO2 removal. Preliminary evaluation of these sorbents as catalysts for the selective reduction of NO(subscript x) gave promising results with ammonia, but indicated low selectivity when methane was used as the reductant. Since the replacement of ammonia by another reductant is commercially very attractive, in this project, four research components will be undertaken. The investigation of the reaction mechanism, the first component, will help in the selection of promoters to improve the catalytic activity and selectivity of the sorbents in the SCR with methane. This will result in new catalyst formulations (second component). If this research is successful, the combined SO2-NO(subscript x) removal process based on alumina-supported copper oxide-ceria sorbent/catalysts will become very attractive for commercial applications. The objective of the third component of the project is to develop an alternative SCR process using another inexpensive fuel, residual fuel oil, instead of natural gas. This innovative proposal is based on very scant evidence concerning the good performance of coked catalysts in the selective reduction of NO and if proven to work the process will certainly be commercially viable. The fourth component of the project involves our industrial partner TDA Research, and the objective is to evaluate long-term stability and durability of the prepared sorbent/catalysts. In the first year of the project, the catalysts were investigated by the temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) technique. The results from TPR indicated that the interaction with support appears to promote reduction at lower temperatures. Copper oxide in excess of monolayer coverage reduces at temperatures close to the reduction temperature of the unsupported copper oxide. Increased dispersion increases the support effect. Low activity of ceria in NO reduction may be due to its resistance to reduction at low temperatures.

Download or read book Catalytic Decomposition of Nitric Oxide and Carbon Monoxide Gases Using Nanofiber Based Filter Media written by Soo-Jin Park and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main sources of NOx are diesel engines, automotives, electric utilities, other industrial, commercial, and residential sources that burn fuels at high temperature. The control and abatement of NOx emissions are important because of their harmful effects on the human body and the environment. The strict regulations of NOx emissions and the growing demand for power compel new design of catalytic materials for pollution removal. The most common method for car exhaust NOx treatment involves wet impregnation of noble metals on ceramic substrates. In this work, catalytic nanoparticles doped on nanofiber enhanced ceramic fibrous filter medium structure are developed as an alternative method. The noble metals, palladium, platinum and rhodium doped ceramic nanofibers, are synthesized using electrospinning and are incorporated into the micro-fibrous filter. We have discovered ceramic nanofiber containing noble metals also work in liquid phase catalysis by converting styrene to ethylbenzene at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. The reaction temperature is varied and the filters are tested for decomposition of nitric oxide and carbon monoxide using nanofiber based fibrous filter. Carbon dioxide, nitrogen and nitrous oxide gases were produced. Produced nitrous oxide gas was consumed by reacting with carbon monoxide. The efficiency of the catalytic fibrous filter was similar to commercial catalytic converter by adding of smaller amount of catalyst doped on alumina microfibers. As the amount of catalyst in the fibrous filter media increases the temperature at which all NO disappears decreases. As the inlet concentration of NO gas decreases, all NO disappears from the outlet at a lower temperature. As the face velocity through the fibrous filter media increases, efficiency becomes lower as the residence time of gases through the media decreases. We also tested a catalytic fibrous filter media containing Pd, Pt and Rh, and the performance is similar to that of catalytic convertor. Analytical models are developed to study the performance of filters for isothermal nitric oxide and carbon monoxide gas reaction. The kinetic parameters for the model were determined using the Genetic Algorithm (GA) computer program to determine species concentrations as a function of position. Model and experimental results showed that the decomposition temperature of nitric oxide gas decreases by lowering the inlet gas concentration and increasing of catalyst concentration in the nanofibers. Also a non-isothermal model was developed for direct nitric oxide decomposition to predict temperature and concentration profiles along the filter length.

This book was released on 2019-02-22 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the quest to mitigate the buildup of greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere, researchers and policymakers have increasingly turned their attention to techniques for capturing greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane, either from the locations where they are emitted or directly from the atmosphere. Once captured, these gases can be stored or put to use. While both carbon storage and carbon utilization have costs, utilization offers the opportunity to recover some of the cost and even generate economic value. While current carbon utilization projects operate at a relatively small scale, some estimates suggest the market for waste carbon-derived products could grow to hundreds of billions of dollars within a few decades, utilizing several thousand teragrams of waste carbon gases per year. Gaseous Carbon Waste Streams Utilization: Status and Research Needs assesses research and development needs relevant to understanding and improving the commercial viability of waste carbon utilization technologies and defines a research agenda to address key challenges. The report is intended to help inform decision making surrounding the development and deployment of waste carbon utilization technologies under a variety of circumstances, whether motivated by a goal to improve processes for making carbon-based products, to generate revenue, or to achieve environmental goals.

This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current society has become more concerned about being environmentally friendly. Catalytic gas after treatment is one of the solutions adopted to reduce pollutant emissions from a combustion engine. A Three Way NOx Storage Catalytic Converter (TWNSC) is a new development of Daimler AG together with Umicore AG [1]. It consists of a Catalyst with some of the main properties of a Three Way Catalyst (TWC) together with NOx storage capacity (lean-NOx trap). This catalyst is used in Otto direct-injection engines with lean/rich operation mode. This technology can reduce fuel consumption in a range of 10%. During lean engine operation time, high quantities of Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) are generated. In presence of a TWNSC, this NOx can be stored. When the engine changes to rich operating mode, the amount of NOx in exhaust gases decreases become rich of unburned hydrocarbons (HC), hydrogen (H2) and carbon monoxide (CO) that can reduce the NOx stored. However, during NOx reduction, formation of undesired byproducts occur. That is the case of nitrous oxide (N2O) and ammonia (NH3). In this Master thesis, studies on the reduction of nitrous oxide formation in Three Way NOx Storage Catalytic Converter are performed. Studies on N2O formation during catalyst performance have not been widely studied and published. In this master thesis, lean/rich experimentations on two new TWNSC (catalyst A and B) are performed to find conditions in which N2O formation can be reduced. Experiments are performed in a test bench where lean gases are provided by a 1- cylinder-engine and rich gases from synthetic gas mixtures. At the beginning of the master thesis, two preliminary investigations are performed. The first consists of the calculation of Oxygen Storage Capacity (OSC) of a cylindrical sample (25 mm diameter, 30 mm length) of catalyst A and B. The results of the experiment show that catalyst B has less Oxygen Storage Capacity. The experiment consisted on applying a flow of 12,5 l/min of Oxygen (O2) in nitrogen (N2) (0,4% by volume) through the previously reduced sample. An average of 0,3 g./l.cat. less oxygen is stored in catalyst B for temperatures of 300, 350 and 400 oC. At 300oC, catalyst A stores 1,44 g/l.cat. compared to the 0,93 g/l.cat. in catalyst B. The second preliminary investigation consists of determining the temperature in which the Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) in reactor 1 has to operate. The objective of this DOC is to oxidize the HC and maintain the original NO2/NOx ratio from the engine exhaust gases. During lean mode, gases from a 1-cylinder-engine (Hatz-motor [2]) are used. NOx and HC concentrations are analyzed for a range of temperatures from 150 to 650 oC. It is concluded that a temperature of 620 oC has to be reached in reactor one to get rid of HC and maintain the NO2/NOx ratio of the bypass exhaust gases (2% of NO2 in NOx). After the preliminary investigations, the first objective is getting to know the basic performance of the two different TWNSC. Lean/rich experimentations are performed on both samples A and B at the range of temperatures from 150oC to 450oC. Lean/rich timing is set on 120/15 seconds respectively. In addition, three different rich gas mixtures (lambdas 0,95, 0,9 and 0,82) have been used for the rich mode. Results show that for lambda 0,95 less N2O is generated (0,06 g/l.cat. at 300oC in catalyst A). The minimum N2O detected is at catalyst B at temperatures of 400 and 450oC (0,01 and 0,00 g/l.cat.). The main part of the Master Thesis consists of four different experimentations that have the objective to find any reduction in N2O formation: 1. N2O formation studies with lean/rich experimentations at modified TWNSC catalysts. Instead of the 30 mm sample previously used, two 15 mm samples are used together. Modifications are applied on the first 15 mm sample and consist on five perforations (2 mm diameter) and the introduction of an uncoated central part section. These modifications try to increase reductants velocity during rich mode. Results show a decrease in N2O formation in the experiment with 15 mm uncoated catalyst A together with another 15 mm catalyst A. An average of 2,8 g/l.cat. of N2O reduction is obtained at temperature of 300oC. In addition, an increase of NOx conversion efficiency has been detected: for the same sample and temperature an average increase of 20% NOx performance 2. N2O formation studies with lean/rich experimentations at a combination of catalysts A and B together. It is concluded that the combination of catalyst A and B does not have a beneficial effect on N2O formation. 3. N2O formation studies with lean/rich experimentations with variation of rich time period. The objective is to see if the reduction of rich time period has an effect on N2O formation. 4. Lean/rich experimentations with variation of the lambda during rich period. The objective is to see if a reduction in N2O is obtained with these variations. For low temperatures (150oC and 200oC) a diminution in N2O formation is appreciated (0,05 g/l.cat to 0,04 g./l.cat at 150oC for 30 mm TWNSCA with uncoated section). This Master Thesis represents a base line study for further investigations on N2O formation on TWNSC. Catalyst modifications are a feasible solution for N2O diminution as well as NOx conversion efficiency. These results encourage further experimentations with these current and other new catalyst modifications. Variation of lambda during rich period and variation of the rich time period are variables that can have a relevant role.

Book excerpt: Eltron Research, Inc., is pursuing the rational development of catalysts for direct (reagentless) decomposition of NOx. This is the most economical imaginable approach for post-combustion removal of nitrogen oxides because costs for reagent and reagent delivery (i.e., ducting, etc.) are eliminated, and catalysts demonstrating activity to the present time are inexpensive ($1-$4/lb). The decomposition of nitrogen oxides in simulated exhaust streams over new brownmillerite catalysts has been examined in a range of temperatures and residence times. Results are indicative of the occurrence of reagentless activity in gas streams containing up to 16 percent oxygen. Performance was nonmonotonic in temperature, with an activity maximum occurring between 550 and 600 deg C. For example, up to 90% conversion of NOx at 250 deg C and 130,000/h has been attained. Using CO as a reductant at 800,000/h and 1000 deg C , one catalyst removed 16 percent of 477 ppm NO in a stream also containing 16 percent oxygen. These results suggest the potential efficacy of the catalysts for the direct decomposition of nitrogen oxides in high-temperature (400-1000 deg C) exhaust gases in, e.g., gas turbine and diesel engines. In addition, the catalysts were found to be effective at oxidizing CO. The enhancement of activity obtained using carbon monoxide is particularly relevant in such applications.

Book excerpt: Plasma catalysis is gaining increasing interest for various gas conversion applications, such as CO2 conversion into value-added chemicals and fuels, N2 fixation for the synthesis of NH3 or NOx, methane conversion into higher hydrocarbons or oxygenates. It is also widely used for air pollution control (e.g., VOC remediation). Plasma catalysis allows thermodynamically difficult reactions to proceed at ambient pressure and temperature, due to activation of the gas molecules by energetic electrons created in the plasma. However, plasma is very reactive but not selective, and thus a catalyst is needed to improve the selectivity. In spite of the growing interest in plasma catalysis, the underlying mechanisms of the (possible) synergy between plasma and catalyst are not yet fully understood. Indeed, plasma catalysis is quite complicated, as the plasma will affect the catalyst and vice versa. Moreover, due to the reactive plasma environment, the most suitable catalysts will probably be different from thermal catalysts. More research is needed to better understand the plasma–catalyst interactions, in order to further improve the applications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is provided a method and apparatus for treatment of a hydrogen-rich gas to reduce the carbon monoxide content thereof by reacting the carbon monoxide in the gas with an amount of oxygen sufficient to oxidize at least a portion of the carbon monoxide in the presence of a catalyst in a desired temperature range without substantial reaction of hydrogen. The catalyst is an iridium-based catalyst dispersed on, and supported on, a carrier. In the presence of the catalyst, carbon monoxide in a hydrogen-rich feed gas is selectively oxidized such that a product stream is produced with a very low carbon monoxide content.
