Denox process for the refinery of the future

Objetivo

The scope of this proposal is the reduction of the NOx emissions from the regenerator of the Fluid Catalytic Cracking Unit (FCC). The innovative approach of the project is the design of novel deNOx additives that catalyze the reaction of nitrogen-containing reaction intermediates (NH3, HCN) formed during regeneration of spent FCC catalysts with NO formed by direct oxidation of the experiments. The physicochemical properties of the novel additives will be measured and mechanistic studies over the promising catalysts will be carried out. Superior performance of the new additives will lead to production of large catalyst quantities for pilot plant testing. Commercial scale tests will be carried out in 3 refineries using state of the art deNOx additives.
