Abstract

Abstract An exhaust gas processing apparatus for a paint drying oven of this invention comprises a reaction container; a first catalyst layer disposed at an upstream side of the reaction container comprising a support of a honeycomb substance or a foamed substance, a carrier layer formed on the support and a platinum group element catalyst loaded on the carrier layer; a second catalyst layer disposed downstream of the first catalyst layer comprising a support of a pellet substance, a honeycomb substance or a foamed substance and a platinum group element catalyst; and a third catalyst layer disposed downstream of the second catalyst layer comprising a support, a carrier layer formed on the support and a copper-cerium-silver catalyst loaded on the carrier layer. Thus, the exhaust gas processing apparatus of this invention exhibits improved exhaust gases purifying abilities, even at relatively low temperatures, and less pressure drop.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 150 words
An exhaust gas processing apparatus for a paint drying oven comprising: a reaction container; a first catalyst layer disposed at an upstream side of said reaction container comprising a support of a honeycomb substance or a foamed substance, a carrier layer formed on said support and a platinum group element catalyst loaded on said carrier layer; a second catalyst layer disposed downstream of said first catalyst layer comprising a support of a pellet substance, a honeycomb substance, or a foamed substance and a platinum group element catalyst; and a third catalyst layer disposed downstream of said second catalyst layer comprising a support, a carrier layer formed on said support, and a copper-cerium-silver catalyst containing 4 wt. % copper, 0.4 wt. % cerium, and 1.5 wt. % silver based on the weight of said carrier, loaded on said catalyst layer; whereby harmful components contained in exhaust gases are oxidized and decomposed.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 150 words
An exhaust gas processing apparatus for a paint drying oven comprising: a reaction container; a first catalyst layer disposed at an upstream side of said reaction container comprising a support of a honeycomb substance or a foamed substance, a carrier layer formed on said support and a platinum group element catalyst loaded on said carrier layer; a second catalyst layer disposed downstream of said first catalyst layer comprising a support of a pellet substance, a honeycomb substance, or a foamed substance and a platinum group element catalyst; and a third catalyst layer disposed downstream of said second catalyst layer comprising a support, a carrier layer formed on said support, and a copper-cerium-silver catalyst containing 4 wt. % copper, 0.4 wt. % cerium, and 1.5 wt. % silver based on the weight of said carrier, loaded on said catalyst layer; whereby harmful components contained in exhaust gases are oxidized and decomposed.
