ない。[0003] As a method for removing NOx, several methods have been considered and implemented so far. For example, a method called catalytic reduction method is a method in which NOx is removed by converting it into nitrogen and water on a catalyst using a reducing agent such as ammonia or hydrogen. However, since this method uses a reducing agent, measures must be taken to recover it and prevent leakage, and although it is effective for large-scale stationary sources, it is not suitable for sources such as automobiles. On the other hand, a so-called three-way catalyst is generally used to purify the exhaust gas of a gasoline engine whose exhaust gas is a reducing gas. However, this catalyst has no activity in the coexistence of oxygen and cannot effectively remove NOx.

It has been found that Pt, CuO, and Co-based catalysts are effective as catalysts used in this method. However, the activity of these catalysts decreases when a large amount of oxygen is present in the process gas, so they are not suitable for treating exhaust gases containing oxygen, such as the exhaust gases of diesel engines and the exhaust gases of lean-burn gasoline engines.

For example, JP-A-60-125250 discloses that a special zeolite containing copper is effective. It is also stated in CHMISTRY LETTER magazine, 1988, pages 1797-1800, that perovskites containing copper are effective for this purpose. These techniques teach that NOx can be removed even from exhaust gas containing oxygen, but their effectiveness is not clear, and there are reports that the activity is extremely low in the coexistence of oxygen.

A method for removing the above has been in the spotlight, and examples of prior art methods for this method include, for example, US Pat. However, the catalysts used in these conventional techniques have low activity, and further improvement in activity is desired.

Paraffins, cycloparaffins, aromatics and mixtures thereof are used. Among these, those that are gaseous under the reaction conditions are preferred, but are not particularly limited thereto. The amount of hydrocarbon added is 10 to 10,000 ppm, preferably 20 to 500 ppm based on the combustion exhaust gas.
It is in the range of 0 ppm. If it is less than 10 ppm, there is no effect, and if it exceeds 10,000 ppm, it will have an unfavorable effect on the catalyst.

限定されることがはない。[0017] Furthermore, the combustion exhaust gas containing oxygen as used in the present invention refers to combustion exhaust gas containing at least 0.5 wt% or more of oxygen. These are the emissions from normal internal combustion engines and boilers. The method of the present invention is particularly effective in treating exhaust gas containing a large amount of oxygen, such as exhaust gas from diesel engines and lean-burn gasoline engines. The processing temperature according to the invention ranges from 200 to 500 °C, preferably 230 °C.
~450°C. If this temperature is lower than 200°C, NOx cannot be removed, and if it is higher than 500°C, the coexisting hydrocarbons will cause combustion, reducing the NOx removal rate. In the present invention, the contact time between the catalyst and the process gas is not limited.

If the exhaust gas is not at a predetermined temperature, the processing section may be heated. Furthermore, when the present invention is applied to exhaust gas from an engine, part of the fuel oil such as gasoline that has entered the existing fuel tank may be added to a processing section provided at the outlet side of the engine, bypassing the engine. Alternatively, it can be added to the processing section after being subjected to a reforming treatment in a reforming section provided in the bypass.

Thereafter, the zeolite was filtered and thoroughly washed with ion-exchanged water. The obtained zeolite was dried under reduced pressure to obtain a catalyst. This catalyst was impregnated with dilute sulfuric acid and thoroughly dried. A reaction similar to that in Example 1 was carried out using the catalyst. Note that the amount of copper supported was about 8 wt%, and the content of sulfate groups was about 6 wt%.
