Plasma Assisted Catalytic Reduction (PACR) of NOxhas been investigated at laboratory scale for gas stream compositions representative of marine diesel exhausts. PACR NOxreduction in excess of 90% was measured at 350°C, a plasma specific energy of 60 J/l and two NOxconcentrations (1,200 and 1,800 ppm). PACR NOxreduction of over 50% was measured for simulated marine engine conditions at 250°C, 60 J/l and 1,200 ppm NOx. The performance under these conditions could be increased, achieving a peak of ∼74% NOxreduction, although at a relatively high plasma power. Water, present in diesel exhaust, was shown to inhibit the poisoning effects of fuel sulphur using SO2as a representative exhaust component. The PACR system performance demonstrated tolerance to simulated fuel sulphur levels of up to 1% for the duration of the tests. PACR performance was also shown to be sensitive to the amount of hydrocarbon reductant used.
