Abstract

A NOx reduction catalyst carrier yields a NOx reduction catalyst with an improved permissible dose of poisoning substances such as arsenic. More specifically, the present invention relates to a NOx reduction catalyst carrier comprising TiO 2 , having a honeycomb structure and having a specific surface area greater than 100 m 2 /g.

Claims (20)

1. A method for reducing NOx from flue gases containing As, the method comprising reducing NOx from the flue gases containing As by using a NOx reduction catalyst in which at least one NOx reduction active metal is supported on a NOx reduction catalyst carrier,

wherein the NOx reduction catalyst carrier comprises TiO 2 , has a honeycomb structure, and a specific surface area of the NOx reduction catalyst carrier is greater than 100 m 2 /g,

wherein the TiO 2 reagent for making the NOx reduction catalyst carrier comprises at least one of the group consisting of alkoxides, chlorides, sulfates, and acetates.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the NOx reduction catalyst carrier consists of a complex oxide produced by the TiO 2 and an oxide of at least one elements selected from the group consisting of Si, B, P, Xr, and W.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the NOx reduction catalyst carrier is produced by a coprecipitation method or a sol-gel method.

4. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the flue gases containing As are flue gases from coal-fired boilers.

5. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the complex oxide has an amorphous and anatase TiO 2 crystal structure.

6. The method according to claim 2 , further comprising a hydrolysis step of mixing the TiO 2 reagent and the oxide reagent for making the NOx reduction catalyst carrier, mixing the mixture with the water, and obtaining a complex oxide,

wherein the hydrolyze step is performed at a temperature in range of 80° C. to 100° C.

7. The method according to claim 6 , further comprising an aging step of stirring solution obtained by the hydrolysis step for a predetermined time,

wherein the aging step is performed at a temperature in range of 80° C. to 100° C.

8. The method according to claim 7 , further comprising a burning step of burning a gelatinized material obtained by the aging step,

wherein the burning step is performed from 4 to 5 hours.

9. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the oxide reagent for making the NOx reduction catalyst carrier comprises at least one of the group consisting of alkoxides, chlorides, sulfates, and acetates.

10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the NOx reduction catalyst carrier consists of a complex oxide produced by the TiO 2 and an oxide of at least two elements selected from the group consisting of Si, B, P, Xr, and W.

11. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the NOx reduction catalyst carrier is produced by a coprecipitation method or a sol-gel method.

12. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the flue gases containing As are flue gases from coal-fired boilers.

13. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the NOx reduction catalyst carrier is produced by a coprecipitation method or a sol-gel method.

14. The method according to claim 13 , wherein the flue gases containing As are flue gases from coal-fired boilers.

15. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the flue gases containing As are flue gases from coal-fired boilers.
