  • Publication number: 20040053771
    Abstract: Disclosed are a catalyst for selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides and a method for preparing the same. Useful for the removal of nitrogen oxides is a catalyst prepared using spent catalysts having been absorbed with vanadium, nickel and sulfur in the hydro-desulfurization line of an oil refinery in which a catalyst for the hydro-desulfurization contains molybdenum, iron, cobalt and silicon on the alumina support in accordance with the present invention. The present catalyst can remove nitrogen oxides at a level of 90% or higher, exhibiting a 10% or more increase in efficiency of the catalyst performance. Additionally, the catalyst can increase the efficiency of spent catalyst reclamation by 250%.

  • Patent number: 6673740
    Abstract: The catalyst is prepared by recycling a spent catalyst discharged from a hydro-desulfurization process of an oil refinery in which the spent catalyst comprises an alumina support with a large specific surface area impregnated with low contents of vanadium and high contents of molybdenum. The thus prepared catalyst has more excellent selective removal activity of nitrogen oxides at a high temperature window by containing suitable amounts of metal components therein as well as a better poisoning resistance to sulfur oxides, compared with the conventional catalysts.

  • Patent number: 6248230
    Abstract: A method is provided for manufacturing cleaner fuels, in which NPC (Natural Polar Compounds), naturally existing in small quantities within various petrolic hydrocarbon fractions, are removed from the petrolic hydrocarbon fractions ranging, in boiling point, from 110 to 560° C. and preferably from 200 to 400° C., in advance of catalytic hydroprocessing. The removal of NPC improves the efficiency of the catalytic process and produces environment-friendly products, such as diesel fuel with a sulfur content of 50 ppm (wt) or lower. Also, the NPC can be used to improve fuel lubricity.
