The present invention relates to a photocatalytic concrete product and a method to produce a photocatalytic concrete product. In first aspect the invention relates to method of producing photocatalytic concrete product, said concrete product being photocatalytic by containing nano sized photocatalytic particles embedded in an section including a first surface, said first surface forming an exterior surface when the photocatalytic concrete product is used as cover/lining. The method comprises: providing a not-yet-set concrete product having a first surface, applying a dispersion containing nano sized photocatalytic particles, such as titanium dioxide nanoparticles a solvent including a humectant onto said first surface of the not-yet-set concrete product.

A catalyst for simultaneously reducing both SOx and NOx in flue gas and a preparation method and use thereof are provided. They catalyst contains a support or inorganic oxide matrix, a rare earth metal, a non-precious metal selected from Group VIII, or non-precious metal(s) selected from Groups VB, VIII, IB, and IIB, a precious metal, an optional Group VIIB non-precious metal, and an optional Group IIA metal. Contacting the flue gas with the catalyst simultaneously reduces both SOx and NOx in the flue gas.

The present invention relates to the field of catalytic cracking, and discloses a catalyst with regular structure capable of simultaneously reducing the emission of SOx and NOx and a preparation method thereof, and a method for simultaneously reducing both SOx and NOx from flue gas, the catalyst comprises a support with regular structure and an active component coating distributed on the inner surface and/or the outer surface of the support with regular structure, the active metal component contains: 1) as oxide, 50-95 wt % of metal component(s) selected from Group rare earth and/or Group IIA; 2) as oxide, 5-50 wt % of non-precious metal component(s) selected from Groups VB, VIIB, VIII, IB, and IIB; 3) as element, 0.01-2 wt % of precious metal component. Using the catalyst provided by the invention can reduce the total amount of added active components and enhance the emission reduction effect of the additive.

The present invention discloses a preparation method for an activated coke catalyst capable of simultaneously removing NO, SO.sub.2, and HCl. The method includes: step 1: crushing and sieving activated coke to obtain coke particles with a particle size of 40-60 microns; step 2: putting the activated coke in an oxidizing agent, stirring at 80 C. for 8 h to allow for a thorough mixing and reaction, washing the activated coke obtained after the reaction until a neutral pH is reached, and drying to obtain activated coke with oxygen-containing functional groups; and step 3: impregnating, by equivalent-volume impregnation, the activated coke with oxygen-containing functional groups obtained in step 2 with a copper nitrate trihydrate aqueous solution for 24 h, drying, and putting the activated coke in a resistance furnace, and introducing argon for calcination to obtain the activated coke catalyst capable of simultaneously removing NO, SO.sub.2, and HCl.

The invention relates to a noxious gas purificant and its preparation and purification method for removing nitrogen oxides from gas streams thereof. The preparing method is characterized in that: mixing, according to a predetermined ratio and a process, a salt of iron, manganese, cobalt, or copper, and a related derivative thereof, an alkali or alkaline substance and a related derivative thereof, water and a forming agent, so as to obtain a solid compound or mixture; drying and activating the solid compound or mixture to produce a solid product as the purificant; and introducing the purificant into a gas-solid reactor, and removing noxious gases in a gas stream by performing, in a preconfigured temperature and using the purificant, a gas-solid reaction on the harmful gases in the gas stream. The purificant can be recycled and reused.
