Abstract

Abstract The method of selective catalytic purification of waste gases from nitrogen oxides consists in that the waste gas to be treated is passed, together with gaseous ammonia, through the bed of a catalyst at a temperature of 100°-500° C, a volumetric velocity of the waste gas of 5000 - 100000 hour -1 and a volumetric ratio of ammonia to nitrogen oxides of 0.7 - 1.5. The catalyst used in the proposed method is actually oxides of vanadium and of manganese that are taken in the weight ratio V 2 O 5 /Mn 2 O 3 of 0.1 - 30, the total quantity of the metal oxides being from 5 to 40 percent with respect to the total weight of the catalyst.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 151 words
Method of selectively removing nitrogen oxides from waste gases by reducing said nitrogen oxides with ammonia, which comprises a waste gas containing nitrogen oxides in admixture with a substantially stoichiometric amount of gaseous ammonia through a catalyst at a temperature of 100° - 500° C, at a volumetric velocity of passage of 5000 - 100,000 hour and a volumetric ratio of the gaseous ammonia to nitrogen oxides of 0.7 - 1.5, said catalyst consisting essentially of a mixture of oxides of vanadium and manganese applied to an inert carrier said oxides being taken in a weight ratio of V 2 O 5 /Mn 2 O 3 of 0.1 - 30, the total content of said oxides of vanadium and manganese being 5-40 percent of the total weight of the catalyst, whereby substantially all of the nitrogen oxides are reduced to nitrogen and the waste gas is thus purified of nitrogen oxides.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 151 words
Method of selectively removing nitrogen oxides from waste gases by reducing said nitrogen oxides with ammonia, which comprises a waste gas containing nitrogen oxides in admixture with a substantially stoichiometric amount of gaseous ammonia through a catalyst at a temperature of 100° - 500° C, at a volumetric velocity of passage of 5000 - 100,000 hour and a volumetric ratio of the gaseous ammonia to nitrogen oxides of 0.7 - 1.5, said catalyst consisting essentially of a mixture of oxides of vanadium and manganese applied to an inert carrier said oxides being taken in a weight ratio of V 2 O 5 /Mn 2 O 3 of 0.1 - 30, the total content of said oxides of vanadium and manganese being 5-40 percent of the total weight of the catalyst, whereby substantially all of the nitrogen oxides are reduced to nitrogen and the waste gas is thus purified of nitrogen oxides.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 11 words
Method according to claim 1 wherein said temperature is 200°-400° C.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 11 words
Method according to claim 1 wherein said temperature is 200°-360° C.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 35 words
Method according to claim 1 wherein said waste gas contains up to 0.4% by volume of at least one of the gases sulphur dioxide, chlorine and carbon monoxide without affecting the activity of the catalyst.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 11 words
Method according to claim 1 wherein said temperature is 220°-320° C.
