In this study, we analyzed the $NO_X$ removal efficiency and particle size distribution by the pulsed corona discharge process and investigated the effect of several process variables. The NO removal efficiencies and the particle characteristics were measured and analyzed as the function of initial concentrations of NO, $H_2O$, and $NH_3$, applied voltage, pulse frequency and residence time. As the frequency of applied voltage increases, or as the applied voltage increases or as the residence time increases, the NO removal efficiency increases. The change of initial $NH_3$ and $H_2O$ concentrations do not affect the NO removal efficiency significantly. The particle concentration and size increases with the increases of initial NO concentration, residence time and applied voltage.

In this study, we analyzed the $NO_X$ removal effiency by the low temperature plasma process and investigated the effect of several process variables. Most of NO is converted into $NO_2$ and, later, into $HNO_3$ which reacts with $NH_3$ to form $NH_4NO_3$ particles. As the frequency of appling voltage increases, as the applied voltage increases or as the residential time increases, removal efficiency of the NO supplied initially increase. The removal efficiency of $NO_X$ also increases with the increase of $NH_3$ supplied.

In this study, we analyzed $NO_x$ and $SO_x$ removal efficiencies by a pulsed corona discharge process and investigated the effect of several process variables. The removal efficiencies of NO and $SO_2$ were measured changing the process variables of initial concentrations of NO, $H_2O$, and $NH_3$, $SO_2$, applied voltage, pulse frequency and residence time. As the applied voltage or the frequency of applied voltage or the residence time increases, the NO and $SO_2$ removal efficiencies increase. The NO and $SO_2$ removal efficiencies also increase by the addition of $O_2$ or $H_2O$, or by using the large diameter of the discharge electrode. The experimental results can be used as a basis to design the pulsed corona discharge process to remove $NO_x$, $SO_x$ and VOCs.

The goal of this study if the optimization of discharge electrode for pulsed corona discharge reactor located in thermal power plant. For this purpose, we have performed experiments of NO$_{x}$ removal rate by exchange of discharge electrode diameter and arrangement of discharge electrode in the non -thermal plasma reaction facility using a ethylene as additive. If the diameter and numbers of discharge electrode were larger, the NO$_{x}$ removal rate was higher. From these results, if we optimized the shape and installed numbers of discharge electrode at the pilot plant, we could increase the NO$_{x}$ removal rate with less amount of additive than current amount.mount.

In recent years, researchers have put a considerable effort to decrease the emission of harmful gaseous pollutants to the atmosphere. In order to remove simultaneously $SO_2$ and $NO_X$ from the flue gas of small and medium-sized ship, we designed minimal wet scrubber inside a compact multistage modular system. In this study we proceed experiment of elemental technology at each stage of the scrubber. The each stage is oxidation of NO which is the main component of $NO_X$, and removal of $SO_2$, respectively. $NaClO_2$ was used to oxidize NO gas, and NaOH was used to remove $SO_2$ gas. The maximum NO conversion efficiency and the $SO_2$ removal efficiency are both indicate 100%.

In this experiment, an attempt to use pellets($BaTiO_3$, $TiO_2$, ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$, sludge) for $NO_x$ removal was conducted The effect of pellets on NO removal from simulated flue gas was experimentally investigated for packed-bed reactor of plate-plate geometry. An experimental investigation has been conducted for NO concentration of 50ppm balanced by air, and gas flow rate of $5{\ell}/min$. Ceramic pellets were used for surface discharge and the sludge pellets was added on $BaTiO_3$ and $TiO_2$ to increase $NO_x$ removal rate. In the result, $NO_x$ removal rate using $TiO_2$ was better than other pellets. $NO_2$ segnificatly generated by using $BaTiO_3$ pellets and sludge pellets used with $BaTiO_3$ decreased $NO_2$ generation.

In this study, we analyzed the NO removal efficiency by the pulsed corona discharge process and investigated the effects of several process variables such as initial concentrations of NO, $H_2O$, and NH$_3$, applied voltage, pulse frequency, diameter of the discharge electrode, and residence time. The removal efficiency of NO increased by the addition of $H_2O$ or NH$_3$, but the changes of initial NH$_3$ and $H_2O$ concentrations did not affect the removal efficiency of NO significantly. With the increases of the applied voltage or the residence time, the removal efficiency of NO increased. In addition, with the increases of the pulse frequency of applied voltage, or the diameter of the discharge electrode, the removal efficiency of NO increased. The experimental results can be used as a basis to design the pulsed corona discharge process to remove NO$_{x}$, SO$_{x}$ and VOCs.OCs.

In this paper, in order to investigate the catalytic effect of the sludge exhausted from waterworks on NO$_{x}$ removal, we measure NO removal characteristics with and without sludge pellets in BaTiO$_3$-sludge packed-bed reactor of plate-plate geometry. NO initial concentration is 50 ppm balanced with air and a gas flow rate is 5ι/min. Gas temperature is changed from 25 to 10$0^{\circ}C$ to investigate the role of sludge pellet on removing active oxygen species and NO$_2$. BaTiO$_3$pellets is filled for coronal discharge at upstream of reactor and sludge pellets is filled for catalytic effect at downstream of reactor. The volume percent of sludge pellets to BaTiO$_3$pellets is changed from 0% to 100% and AC voltage is supplied to the reactor for discharging simulated gases. In the results, when sludge pellets is put at the downstream of plasma reactor, NO removal rate is slightly increased. However, NO$_2$and $O_3$ as by-products during NO removal is significantly decreased from 51ppm without sludge pellets to 5 ppm with sludge pellets and from 50 ppm without sludge pellets to 0.004ppm with sludge pellets, respectively. Therefore, NO$_{x}$(NO+NO$_2$) removal rate is increased up to 93%. It is thought that sludge pellet maybe react with active oxygen species and NO$_2$ generated by corona discharge in surface of BaTiO$_3$pellets, the then NO$_2$O$_3$as by-products are considerably decreased. When we increase gas temperature from room temperature to 10$0^{\circ}C$, NO removal rate is decreased, while NO$_2$ concentration is independent on gas temperature. These result suggest that the removal mechanism of active oxygen species and NO$_2$in sludge pellet is not absorption, but chemical reaction. Therefore we expect that sludge pellets exhausted for waterworks could be used as catalyst for NO$_{x}$ removal with high removal rate and low by-product.oduct.

We investigated the amount of the toxic gases emitted from the Electrostatic Precipitators(ESPs), which are currently used as the indoor air cleaners. The existing wire-to-plate(WTP) and neddle-to-plate(NTP) types of ESP designs are considered as the experimental corona dischargers. Using the voltage, the polarity of wire, the number of needles of NTP as the input variables, we studied the generation characteristics of ozone and $NO_{x}$ and the particle removal efficiency in the ESPs. As the results, we found out that the concentration of ozone, $NO_{2}$ and $NO_{x}$ is increased with increasing the voltage and the number of needles, but the amount of NO is decreased. And we observed that the generation rates of ozone and $NO_{x}$ are mainly related with the corona region through the photographs. Finally the experimental results showed that the particle removal efficiency of ESP with WTP type charger is more superior to that with NTP type chargers at the same voltage.

연소시설에서는 화석연료에 포함된 질소와 황이 산소와 반응하여 대기 오염물질인 질소산화물(NO_X)과 황산화물(SO_X)을 발생시킨다. 인체에 유해하고 환경 오염을 야기하는 NO_X, SO_X를 저감하기 위해 전세계적으로 환경규제를 시행 중이며, 규제를 충족하기 위해 다양한 기술들을 적용하고 있다. 상용화된 NO_X 및 SO_X 저감방식들로 SCR (selective catalytic reduction), SNCR (selective non-catalytic reduction), WFGD (wet flue gas desulfurization) 등이 있으나 이 방식들의 단점들 때문에 NO_X, SO_X를 동시제거하는 연구가 근래 많이 수행되고 있다. 그러나 NO_X, SO_X 동시 제거 방식에서도 산화제 및 흡수제로 인한 폐수 발생에 대한 문제점, 특정 산화제를 활성화 하기 위한 촉매 및 전기분해 사용에 따른 비용 발생, 마지막으로 기체 산화제들 자체 유해성의 문제점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 NO_X, SO_X 동시처리 방식의 단점들을 보완하고자 고압분산기에서 생성된 마이크로버블과 환원제를 이용하여 비용절감 및 폐수처리 시 환경부하저감 가능성을 확인해 하고자 하였다. 분산기가 마이크로버블을 생성하는 것을 이미지 프로세싱과 ESR (electron spin resonance) 분석을 통해 확인하였으며, 마이크로버블만을 이용하여 온도에 따른 NO_X, SO_X 제거율 성능 테스트도 진행하였다. 뿐만 아니라 폐수를 저감하기 위해 환원제와 마이크로버블을 이용하여 습식으로 NO_X 제거율 약 75%, SO_X 제거율 99%를 달성하였다. 본 마이크로버블 시스템에 산화제를 함께 투여할 경우 NO_X, SO_X제거율 모두 99%이상을 달성 하였다. 이러한 연구 결과를 토대로 습식산화제거방식을 적용하는 시설의 단점이었던 비용 및 환경 문제를 해결함에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대 된다.
