Carbon has been recognized to play a significant role in reducing NO in some combustion systems (e.g., fluidized beds) and offers the potential as a reducing agent in other, new applications. In order to more fully appreciate this potential, it is useful to explore what factors influence the reactivity of carbons (and, more generally, chars) towards NO. This paper summarizes what is known about the reactivity of different carbons, and examines some questions raised by the comparison, in light of new experimental results.
