Abstract:
A method for decomposing N2O is described. The method uses, as a catalyst, an oxide based on cerium and lanthanum, which further includes at least one oxide of an element chosen from zirconium and rare earths other than cerium and lanthanum. This catalyst is stable, enabling it to be used at high temperatures.
Abstract:
A low-cost and practically useful method for preventing global warming by decomposing N2O wherein N2O contained in an N2O-containing gas to be treated can be decomposed at a relatively low temperature; and an apparatus therefor. That is, a method for preventing global warming comprising, in a process of thermally or catalytically decomposing N2O in an N2O-containing gas to be treated, dividing the N2O-containing gas stream to be treated in portions, preheating a portion thereof so as to exothermally decompose N2O in said gas stream to form a hot gas stream, and supplying the remainder of the divided gas stream to be treated into said hot gas stream to thereby continuously decompose N2O, so that global warming is prevented; and an apparatus therefor.

Abstract:
A process for the catalytic decomposition of dinitrogen monoxide in a gas stream by contacting the gas stream at temperatures of 200.degree.-900.degree. C. and pressures of 0.1 to 20 bar with a catalyst free of noble metals, the catalyst being prepared by combining a spinel CuAl.sub.2 O.sub.3 with another spinel-forming metal component selected from the group consisting of tin, lead, zinc, magnesium, calcium, strontium and barium or mixtures thereof in elemental form or as an oxide or salt, and calcining at temperatures of 300.degree.-1300.degree. C. and under pressures of 0.1-200 bar in order to at least partially liberate the copper from the spinel by replacement with the other metal component.
Abstract:
The N.sub.2 O values in gaseous effluents, notably those produced in various organic syntheses entailing nitric acid oxidation (for example the industrial scale production of adipic acid, of glyoxal and of glyoxylic acid), are catalytically decomposed at elevated temperatures over H-mordenite and ammonium mordenite catalysts, preferably the ammonium mordenites that have been exchanged with iron, cobalt or bismuth.
Abstract:
For the purification of waste gas containing nitrogen oxides in combination with CO, VOCs or nitrous oxide, in particular waste gas resulting from the production of cement clinker, nitric acid, adipic acid, fertilizers and uranium trioxide, a regenerative thermal post-combustion system with at least two regenerators (A, B) is used by means of which the CO, VOCs and nitrous oxide are thermally purified in the combustion chamber (1) at a temperature of 800 to 1000° C. and the nitrogen oxides are thermally reduced with the SCR catalyst (6) by adding a nitrogen-hydrogen compound, wherein the waste gas already thermally purified is removed from the respective two-part regenerator (A or B) at a suitable place at a temperature of approx. 300° C., guided via the SCR catalyst (6) in a constant direction of flow and subsequently fed back to the remaining section (A′, B′) of the regenerator (A or B).

Abstract:
The present invention relates to the use of a zeolite catalyst comprising at least one transition metal and in addition sulfur and/or phosphorus atoms for reducing the content of nitrogen oxides in a gas, and also to a process for reducing the content of nitrogen oxides in a gas by bringing this gas into contact with such a zeolite catalyst.
