SCR catalyst having excellent sulfur tolerance
Provided is an SCR catalyst for removing nitrogen oxides (NO x ) from exhaust gas, comprising: 0.01-70 wt % of zeolite having an average pore size of 5 Å or more; 25-90 wt % of titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ); and 4-10 wt % of vanadium pentoxide (V 2 O 5 ). The SCR catalyst according to the present invention exhibits denitrification performance in a low-temperature area that is superior to that of a conventional SCR catalyst, has improved tolerance for a sulfur compound, and also has an excellent regeneration rate.
1 . A selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst for removing nitrogen oxides from exhaust gas, the SCR catalyst consisting of:
20 to 40 weight percentage of zeolite-Y having pores, the pores having an average pore size of 5 Å or more;
40 to 70 wt % of titanium dioxide;
4 to 10 wt % of vanadium pentoxide; and
0.01 to 15 wt % of tungsten trioxide,
wherein the zeolite-Y does not include iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, chromium, zinc, and manganese, and
wherein a weight ratio of aluminum to silicon of the zeolite-Y is 1:5 to 1:12.
2 . The SCR catalyst of claim 1 , wherein the exhaust gas contains 300 ppm or more of a sulfur compound.
3 . The SCR catalyst of claim 1 , wherein a temperature of the exhaust gas is within a range of 180° C. to 400° C.
4 . The SCR catalyst of claim 1 , wherein a conversion rate of nitrogen oxide in the exhaust gas is 40 to 96% within a temperature range of 200 to 250° C.
5 . The SCR catalyst of claim 1 , wherein the SCR catalyst is regenerable within a temperature range of 240° C. or more.
