Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

One object is to provide a useful aldehyde decomposition catalyst, and an exhaust gas treatment apparatus and an exhaust gas treatment method using the aldehyde decomposition catalyst that achieve low cost and sufficient aldehyde decomposition performance with a small amount of the catalyst. An aldehyde decomposition catalyst of the present invention is made of a zeolite in a cation form NH4 having a structure of CHA or MOR and carrying Cu.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for decomposing an aldehyde contained in a combustion exhaust gas discharged from a denitration unit, the denitration unit removing NOx from the combustion gas, the aldehyde being by-produced in the denitration unit to which an alcohol is fed as a reducing agent, the method comprising a step of contacting the aldehyde with an aldehyde decomposition catalyst, characterized in that the aldehyde decomposition catalyst is made of a zeolite in a cation form NH 4 having a structure of CHA and carrying Cu. 2. The exhaust gas treatment method according to claim 1 , in which the temperature range of the combustion exhaust gas is from 200 to 400° C. 3. The exhaust gas treatment method according to claim 1 , wherein the aldehyde contained in the combustion exhaust gas is formaldehyde. 4. A method for decomposing an aldehyde contained in a combustion exhaust gas discharged from a denitration unit, the denitration unit removing NOx from the combustion gas, the aldehyde being by-produced in the denitration unit to which an alcohol is fed as a reducing agent, the method comprising a step of contacting the aldehyde with an aldehyde decomposition catalyst, characterized in that the aldehyde decomposition catalyst is made of a zeolite in a cation form NH 4 having a structure of MOR and carrying Cu, wherein the aldehyde contained in the combustion exhaust gas is formaldehyde.
