Abstract
In this study, selective catalytic reduction (SCR) reaction was performed using liqufied petroleum gas (LPG) as a reductant for removing NOx. The catalysts were manufactured with different amounts of Cu and Fe supported on HZSM-5 in order to remove NOx. The NOx conversion ratio was studied with changing the temperature and the catalyst amount. The catalysts were manufactured by calcination with flowing the ambient air at $500^{\circ}C$ for three hours. Cupper of 1~4 wt% and iron of 0.5~2 wt% were supported on HZSM-5 of which Si/Al ratio were 80. According to the reaction results, the catalyst which Cu of 3 wt% supported on HZSM-5 showed the highest conversion rate. XRD, XPS, and TPR analysis were also performed for the characterization of catalysts.
본 연구에서는 LPG (liqufied petroleum gas)를 환원제로 사용하여 질소산화물을 제거하는 SCR (selective catalytic reduction) 반응을 수행하였다. 질소산화물을 제거하기 위하여 HZSM-5 담체위에 Cu와 Fe를 함량을 달리하여 함침 시켜 촉매를 제조하였다. 질소산화물 전환율을 촉매의 종류와 촉매함량, 반응온도를 중심으로 연구하였다. 촉매는 $500^{\circ}C$에서 공기흐름 분위기에서 3 h 동안 소성시켜 제조하였다. Cu는 1~4 wt%, Fe는 0.5~2 wt%가 되게 Si/Al 비가 80인 HZSM-5에 함침 시켰다. 반응실험 결과에 따르면 Cu가 HZSM-5 담체에 3 wt% 담지된 촉매의 전환율이 가장 높았다. 촉매의 특성화를 위하여 XRD, XPS, TPR 분석을 하였다.
