Abstract

A catalyst-containing ceramic dust filter for off-gas or exhaust gas cleaning is prepared by a method comprising the steps of making a water-based impregnation slurry, which comprises a catalytically effective amount of at least one catalytically active metal and an oxide support, to form a catalytically active metal oxide support, impregnating the filter substrate with the impregnation slurry, spraying from the inside to control the amount of liquor while leaving the outer few millimeters of the filter wall dry, and drying the impregnated filter. The impregnated filter is preferably dried by using microwave energy.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A method of preparing a catalyst-containing ceramic candle dust filter having a ceramic outer wall and a ceramic inner wall for off-gas or exhaust gas cleaning, said method comprising the steps of
preparing a water-based impregnation slurry, which comprises a catalytically effective amount of micrometer-sized catalytically active metal particles and an oxide support, to form a catalytically active metal oxide support,
impregnating pores in a substrate of the ceramic candle dust filter with the impregnation slurry by spraying the impregnation slurry, from an inner side of the ceramic candle dust filter outwardly, to control the amount of the impregnation slurry sprayed on the inner wall, so that the entire ceramic outer wall of the filter is not impregnated and remains dry, and
drying the impregnated filter by using microwave energy, without subsequent calcination of the dried catalyst impregnated substrate, thereby avoiding migration of the catalyst while ensuring a uniform catalyst distribution.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the catalytically active metal comprises a combined selective catalytic reduction (SCR) and oxidation catalyst and a precious metal comprising catalyst.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the combined SCR and oxidation catalyst comprises a vanadium oxide and titania.

4. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the precious metal comprising catalyst is a palladium catalyst.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the palladium catalyst is combined with a vanadium oxide and titania.

6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the vanadium oxide/titania catalyst is additionally dispersed on a permeation side of the filter together with the palladium catalyst.

7. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the palladium catalyst contains palladium in an amount of between 20 and 1000 ppm/weight of the filter.
