Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed a photochemical reactor to convert NO to a water-soluble substance by irradiating vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) light of 172 nm wavelength at room temperature, without a catalyst or deNOx agent. The elementary reaction mechanism was elucidated in a laboratory-scale photochemical reactor. Large flow rate photochemical deNOx experiments were also conducted using actual exhaust gas from a waste incinerator. The deNOx rate of the scale-up system was lower than that of the lab-scale reactor. This is because the high moisture concentration (about 30%) in the actual exhaust gas prevented ozone formation by VUV irradiation, making it difficult for the NO oxidation reaction and HNO3 conversion reaction to proceed.
