CONVERSION OF NITROGEN OXIDES IN THE PRESENCE OF A CATALYST SUPPORTED OF A MESH-LIKE STRUCTURE

A process for converting at least one nitrogen oxide, such as NO, NO2, or N2 O which comprises converting the at least one nitrogen oxide in the presence o f a catalyst supported on a metal mesh-like structure. The mesh-like structure is preferably fibrous and has a porosity greater than about 85%....

Zusammenfassung:A process for converting at least one nitrogen oxide, such as NO, NO2, or N2 O which comprises converting the at least one nitrogen oxide in the presence o f a catalyst supported on a metal mesh-like structure. The mesh-like structure is preferably fibrous and has a porosity greater than about 85%. Preferred embodiments of structured packing and monoliths are disclosed each having a catalyst for converting the nitrogen oxide. In one embodiment, corrugated me sh- like sheets are arranged in series with a ceramic solid monolith structure with the corrugated sheets initially receiving the fluid with the at least o ne nitrogen oxide to be converted and which fluid then flows into the monolith structure to complete the conversation. In other embodiments, the mesh-like structure may have different configurations including a honeycomb arrangemen t and may comprise metal, metal and ceramic or ceramic and may be fibrous.
