The IGR emission control technology controls SOx, NOx, and particulate emissions from coal combustion flue gases. It is based on a solid-state, flow-through, electrochemical reactor which reduces NO{sub x} and SO{sub 2} to nitrogen, sulfur, and oxygen cell. The cell electrolyte is a solid-electrolyte, normally a high surface area ceramic oxide-ion conductor. Tasks this quarter include: Project Work Plan and Electrocatalyst Preparation and Screening Studies of electrocatalysts for high oxygen overpotential and low SO{sub 2} and NO{sub x} overpotential. Tests will be conducted with ceramic disks one inch in diameter. The reactor for disk testing has been built and the disks have been aquired. 4 refs., 9 figs.
