Abstract
This paper investigates the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH 3 using fly ash catalyst. The catalytically active elements investigated here included Fe, Cu, Ni and V. The results indicated that fly ash, after pre-treatment, can be reasonably used as the SCR catalyst support to remove NO from flue gas. Cu gave the highest catalytic activity and NO conversion, compared with Fe, Ni and V. In the pre-treatment process, the nitric acid treatment and drying temperatures for the fly ash particles had little effect on the NO conversion. However, the calcination temperature had an important effect on the catalyst preparation process.
