An exhaust gas after-treatment mixing device comprises a casing, a mixing pipe located in the casing and a partition plate separating the casing into an upstream space and a downstream space. The mixing pipe comprises a first pipe portion located in the upstream space and a second pipe portion located in the downstream space. The first pipe portion is provided with at least two first openings located on two sides of the first pipe portion, respectively. A shielding plate shields an upstream portion of at least one of the first openings. The shielding plate is shaped and positioned within the casing to urge exhaust gas flowing through the upstream space away from the first end of the mixing pipe and around the shielding plate prior to entering the first openings.

The present invention provide a method for purifying exhaust gas in which nitrogen oxides (NOx) gas is removed from a combustion exhaust gas. The method for purifying exhaust gas according to the invention is characterized in that water vapor is further added to raw exhaust gas to be processed to increase the water vapor concentration in the exhaust gas and the resulting moisture-adjusted exhaust gas is introduced into a denitration catalyst layer. The water vapor concentration in the moisture-adjusted exhaust gas is preferably 22.0% by volume or less in the total of the water vapor originally contained in the raw exhaust gas and the added water vapor.

An exhaust treatment system includes a dust-removal system. The dust-removal system has an electric field device (1021) and an exhaust cooling device. The electric field device (1021) includes an inlet of the electric field device, an outlet of the electric field device, a dust-removal electric field cathode (10212), and a dust-removal electric field anode (10211), the dust-removal electric field cathode (10212) and the dust-removal electric field anode (10211) being used for generating an ionization dust-removal electric field. The exhaust cooling device is used for reducing an exhaust temperature before the inlet of the electric field device. An exhaust dust-removal system facilitates to reduce greenhouse gas emission, and also facilitates to reduce hazardous gas and pollutant emission, so that gas emission is more environment-friendly.
