The objective of this work was to investigate NOxremoval with a hybrid system consisting of a dc corona discharge and a catalyst at a room temperature (22°C) in the presence of ammonia. The experimental procedure was as follows. A positive dc corona discharge was generated between a stainless steel hollow needle and a flat mesh made of brass. The needle was placed perpendicularly to the mesh maintaining the interelectrode distance of 40mm. The outer and inner diameters of the hollow needle were 2 and 1.6mm, respectively. The catalyst used in this investigation was a layer of V2O5and TiO2deposited on Al2O3globules of 5–6mm in diameter. They were placed on the mesh so that the distance between the tube and the globules was 30mm. The catalyst was either saturated with NH3or free of NH3. A gas mixture of N2(80%):O2(5%):CO2(15%):NO (200ppm) flowed through the tube with a flow rate of 1l/min. Ammonia was added to the gas mixture through a hollow needle in a concentration of either 400ppm when NH3-free catalyst was used or 30ppm when catalyst saturated with NH3was used. Results of the investigation showed that the hybrid system (with NH3-saturated catalyst) removes up to 96% of NOxwith an energy efficiency of 3.4g NO/kWh. Without the catalyst, NOxremoval in the “pure” corona discharge in the gas mixture with ammonia was lower (up to 66%). Also the energy efficiency was lower (about 1.8gNO/kWh). The obtained results showed that the investigated corona discharge-catalyst hybrid system is attractive for NOxremoval because of relatively high efficiency both in NOxdecomposition and energy consumption.
