Abstract
Effects of NH3, NO, NO2 and SO2 on the N2O formation were studied in the mixtures of H2O, O2 and N2 irradiated with electron beams of 1.5 MeV energy. In the H2O-O2-N2 mixture, the N2O formation was enhanced markedly by addition of a small amount of NH3. This enhancement may be brought about by the reaction of NH3 with OH radical to form NH2 radical leading to the formation of N2O. In the NH3-H2O-O2-N2 mixture, the formation of N2O was suppressed effectively by addition of NO, NO2 and SO2. The N2O formation was not affected by the irradiation temperature range of 80–200°C.
