  2. Selective catalytic reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selective_catalytic_reduction

    Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) means converting nitrogen oxides, also referred to as NO x with the aid of a catalyst into diatomic nitrogen (N 2), and water (H 2 O). A reductant, typically anhydrous ammonia (NH 3), aqueous ammonia (NH 4 OH), or a urea (CO(NH 2) 2) solution, is added to a stream of flue or exhaust gas and is reacted onto a ...

  3. NOx adsorber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NOx_adsorber

    A NO x adsorber is designed to reduce oxides of nitrogen emitted in the exhaust gas of a lean burn internal combustion engine.Lean burn engines, particularly diesels, present a special challenge to emission control system designers because of the relatively high levels of O 2 (atmospheric oxygen) in the exhaust gas.

  4. Diesel exhaust fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_exhaust_fluid

    Within the SCR catalyst, the NO x are reduced by the ammonia into water and nitrogen, which are both nonpolluting. The water and nitrogen are then released into the atmosphere through the exhaust. [7] SCR was applied to automobiles by Nissan Diesel Corporation, and the first practical product "Nissan Diesel Quon" was introduced in 2004. With ...

  5. Selective non-catalytic reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selective_non-catalytic...

    Selective non-catalytic reduction (SNCR) is a method to lessen nitrogen oxide emissions in conventional power plants that burn biomass, waste and coal.The process involves injecting either ammonia or urea into the firebox of the boiler at a location where the flue gas is between 1,400 and 2,000 °F (760 and 1,090 °C) to react with the nitrogen oxides formed in the combustion process.

  6. BlueTEC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BlueTec

    BlueTEC is Mercedes-Benz Group's marketing name for engines equipped with advanced NO x reducing technology for vehicle emissions control in diesel-powered vehicles.The technology in BlueTec vehicles includes a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system that uses diesel exhaust fluid, and a system of NOx adsorbers the automaker calls DeNO x, which uses an oxidizing catalytic converter and ...

    Ethylene oxide or Ethylene oxide with nitrogen up to a total pressure of 1MPa (10 bar) at 50 °C UN 1041: 2.1: Ethylene oxide and carbon dioxide mixtures with more than 9 percent but not more than 87 percent ethylene oxide UN 1042? (UN No. no longer in use) UN 1043: 2.2: Fertilizer ammoniating solution with free ammonia UN 1044: 2.2

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A._B._Brown_Generating_Station

    From 2001 to 2005, Vectren installed four selective catalytic reduction (SCR) devices on all of the coal-fired units, which successfully cut nitrogen oxide (NO x) emissions by 80 percent. In 2004, Vectren replaced an existing electrostatic precipitator at Unit 1 with a fabric filter.

  9. NOx - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NOx

    Nitrogen oxides are released during manufacturing of nitrogen fertilizers. Though nitrous oxide is emitted during its application, it is then reacted in atmosphere to form nitrogen oxides. This third source is attributed to the reaction of atmospheric nitrogen, N 2, with radicals such as C, CH, and CH 2 fragments derived from fuel, [26] rather ...
