Abstract: Catalyst support systems for ammonia oxidation burners comprising a top flange and an inner wall. The top flange comprises a planar section, a rounded outer edge, and a rounded inner edge, the rounded outer edge and the rounded inner edge being separated by the planar section. The inner wall comprises a carrier plate, a gauze shelf, and a bottom plate shelf, the gauze shelf and the bottom plate shelf being attached to the carrier plate. The carrier plate is attached to the top flange by means of the rounded inner edge.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a catalyst comprising 0.1-10 mol % Co3-xMxO4, where M is Fe or Al and x=0-2, on a cerium oxide support for decomposition of N2O in gases containing NO. The catalyst may also contain 0.01-2 weight % ZrO2. The invention further comprises a method for performing a process comprising formation of N2O. The N2O containing gas is brought in contact with a catalyst comprising 0.1-10 mol % Co3-xMxO4, where M is Fe or Al and x=0-2, on a cerium oxide support, at 250-1000° C. The method may comprise that ammonia is oxidized in presence of an oxidation catalyst and that the thereby formed gas mixture is brought in contact with the catalyst comprising the cobalt component on cerium oxide support at a temperature of 500-1000° C.

Abstract: A support system for catalyst gauzes in an ammonia oxidation burner and a method of reducing movement of particulate ceramic material due to thermal dilatation includes the catalyst gauzes (1) and possibly support screens (2) being supported by ceramic fillings contained in a burner basket with metal walls and a perforated bottom plate. A “wave breaker” (9, 11) is fixed to the metal wall (4) and/or the outer part/periphery of the bottom plate (5).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of reduction of nitrogen oxides in gas mixtures, especially the removal/decomposition of nitrogen oxide in hot combustion gases. The hot gas mixture which contains N.sub.2 O is given a retention time of 0.1-3 seconds before being cooled down. About 90% of N.sub.2 O is thereby decomposed to N.sub.2 and O.sub.2. A hot gas mixture formed by catalytic combustion of ammonia is given a retention time of 0.5-2 seconds before it is cooled in a heat recovery unit. The combustion gases can also be brought in contact with a metal or metal oxide catalyst for selective decomposition of the N.sub.2 O.
