Nitrogen oxides in the exhaust gases from combustion of fossil fuels remain a major source for air pollution and acid rain. The current technology for reducing NO{sub x} (NO + NO{sub 2}) emissions from power plants is selective catalytic reduction (SCR) with ammonia in the presence of oxygen. For the SCR reaction, V{sub 2}O{sub 5} + WO{sub 3} (or MoO{sub 3}) supported on TiO{sub 2} are the commercial catalysts. The mechanism of the reaction on the vanadia catalysts has been studied extensively, and several different mechanisms have been proposed. Ion-exchanged zeolite catalysts have also been studied, e.g., Fe-Y, Cu-ZSM-5, and Fe-ZSM-5, but the reported activities were lower than that of the commercial vanadia catalysts. The SCR technology based on vanadia catalysts is being used in Europe and Japan and is being quickly adopted in the US. However, problems associated with vanadia catalysts remain, e.g., high activity for oxidation of SO{sub 2} to SO{sub 3}, toxicity of vanadia, and formation of N{sub 2}O at high temperature. Hence, there are continuing efforts in developing new catalysts. In this paper, the authors report a superior Fe-ZSM-5 catalyst that is much more active than the commercial vanadia catalysts and does not have the deficiencies that are associated with the vanadia catalysts.
