Process for preparing catalysts for removal of nitrogen oxides

Patent ·
OSTI ID:5829468
A catalyst for removal of nitrogen oxides which shows extremely good catalytic activity and is excellent in durability and is low in the activity of oxidizing SO/sub 2/ into SO/sub 3/ can be prepared at a low cost by impregnating a titanium oxide carrier with a vanadium sulfate, a vanadyl sulfate or a mixture thereof and then reacting a mixed gas consisting of 0.05 to 100% by mole of ammonia and 99.95 to 0% by mole of an inert gas which is inert to both ammonia and vanadium and vanadyl sulfates with the impregnated carrier while the reaction mixture is maintained at a temperature of 300/sup 0/ to 520/sup 0/ C, and preferably 370/sup 0/ to 450/sup 0/C alternativerly, the catalyst can be prepared by shaping a mixture of titanium oxide and a vanadium sulfate, a vanadyl sulfate or a mixture thereof into a desired shape and then reacting a mixed gas consisting of 0.05 to 100% by mole of ammonia and 99.95 to 0% by mole of an inert gas which is inert to both ammonia and vanadium and vanadyl sulfates with the shaped mixture while the reaction mixture is maintained at a temperature of 300/sup 0/ to 520/sup 0/C, and preferably 370/sup 0/ to 450/sup 0/C.
