Abstract:
Disclosed is an ammonia adsorption apparatus for removing ammonia contained in a treated gas discharged from a denitrator for decomposing nitrogen oxides present in exhaust gas using ammonia as a reducing agent, comprising at least two adsorption towers into which ammonia-containing exhaust gas is introduced in a vertical direction for removing the ammonia by adsorption, wherein, during regeneration of each adsorption tower, hot gas used for desorption purposes flows from a top toward a bottom of the adsorption tower and cooling gas flows from the bottom toward the top of the adsorption tower.
Abstract:
A high-performance rectifying device promotes the diffusion of energy, temperature and concentration in a fluid stream with a small pressure loss. The device is a lattice type rectifying device provided within a fluid flow passageway for equalizing the flow velocity distribution of the same fluid. Lattice elements each consist of two triangular plates disposed so as to form two opposed surfaces of a pyramid having its apex on the downstream side of the fluid flow and two other triangular plates forming two opposed surfaces of another pyramid having its apex jointed with the first-mentioned apex and having its bottom surface positioned on the downstream side of the fluid flow. The latter two opposed surfaces have their orientations deviated by 90 degrees from the two opposed surfaces on the upstream side. The lattice elements are arrayed in juxtaposition in directions perpendicular to the fluid flow with the orientation of adjacent lattice elements deviated by 90 degrees from each other and are connected in such a manner that the bottom surfaces of the above-mentioned pyramids may form a lattice. Furthermore the ratio of the length, in a direction parallel to the flow, of the lattice element to the breadth, in the direction perpendicular to the flow, of the lattice element should be kept in a range of 1.5-2.0. The lattice element may also be formed of a rectangular plate twisted by 90 degrees in the direction along the direction of the fluid flow.

Abstract:
This invention effectively utilizes a solid type honeycomb-shaped NO.sub.x removal catalyst which has been used in a catalytic ammonia reduction process and hence reduced in NO.sub.x removal power, and thereby provides an inexpensive catalyst having NO.sub.x removal power equal to that of a fresh catalyst. The nitrogen oxide removal catalyst of this invention, which is useful in a process wherein ammonia is added to exhaust gas and nitrogen oxides present in the exhaust gas are catalytically reduced, has a two-layer structure composed of a lower layer comprising a spent solid type nitrogen oxide removal catalyst and an upper layer comprising a fresh TiO.sub.2 -WO.sub.3 -V.sub.2 O.sub.5 ternary or TiO.sub.2 -WO.sub.3 binary catalyst powder which has been applied to the lower layer so as to give a coating thickness of 100 to 250 .mu.m. Moreover, the catalyst power constituting the upper layer is a catalyst powder obtained by pulverizing a spent solid type nitrogen oxide removal catalyst.

Abstract:
A new method for denitration by ammonia of exhaust gas containing arsenic compounds which degrades a denitrating catalyst used is disclosed as well as a method and an apparatus, based on the same principle as the above method, for regenerating an already degraded catalyst. These effects are achieved, without taking the catalyst out of the system, by adjusting the humidity and temperature of the atmosphere surrounding the catalyst filled in the denitration reactor with simple and economical means so that arsenic compounds accumulated on the catalyst surface will diffuse into the catalyst reducing their concentration on the surface, which is important for the catalytic action.
