The effectiveness of Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems in significantly reducing nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions hinges on the performance of their catalysts. Achieving high NOx removal efficiency is a complex interplay of chemical composition, structural design, and operating conditions. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., a leading supplier of industrial chemicals and catalysts from China, sheds light on the technical intricacies that make SCR catalysts so vital for environmental protection in heavy industries.

At the core of SCR technology is the catalytic conversion of NOx. The catalysts, typically based on Vanadium Pentoxide (V2O5), Titanium Dioxide (TiO2), and often modified with Tungsten Trioxide (WO3) or Molybdenum Trioxide (MoO3), are designed to promote specific chemical reactions. In the presence of ammonia, these catalysts facilitate the reduction of NOx to elemental nitrogen (N2) and water (H2O) at elevated temperatures, usually between 270°C and 400°C. The efficiency of this process is further enhanced by the catalyst's physical structure, often a honeycomb design, which maximizes the contact surface area between the flue gas, ammonia, and the active catalytic sites.

Factors such as low SO2 conversion rates and resistance to poisoning are crucial for maintaining high catalytic activity and thus high NOx removal efficiency over time. The materials used are selected not only for their catalytic properties but also for their ability to withstand the harsh conditions found in industrial exhaust streams. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. focuses on developing and supplying SCR catalysts that meet these demanding technical requirements, ensuring optimal performance for clients in power plants, steel mills, and other industrial sectors. By understanding these technical aspects, businesses can better appreciate the value and necessity of high-quality SCR catalysts in their emissions control strategies.
