A hybrid power plant system including a gas turbine system and a coal fired boiler system inputs high oxygen content gas turbine flue gas into the coal fired boiler system, said gas turbine flue gas also including carbon dioxide that is desired to be captured rather than released to the atmosphere. Oxygen in the gas turbine flue gas is consumed in the coal fired boiler, resulting in relatively low oxygen content boiler flue gas stream to be processed. Carbon dioxide, originally included in the gas turbine flue gas, is subsequently captured by the post combustion capture apparatus of the coal fired boiler system, along with carbon diode generated by the burning of coal. The supply of gas turbine flue gas which is input into the boiler system is controlled using dampers and/or fans by a controller based on an oxygen sensor measurement and one or more flow rate measurements.

The present invention provides crystalline aluminosilicate zeolites having a maximum pore size of eight tetrahedral atoms, wherein the zeolite has a total proton content of less than 2 mmol per gram. The zeolite may comprise 0.1 to 10 wt.-% of at least one transition metal, calculated as the respective oxide and based on the total weight of the zeolite. It may furthermore comprise at least one alkali or alkaline earth metal in a concentration of 0 to 2 wt.-%, calculated as the respective metal and based on the total weight of the zeolite. The zeolites may be used for the removal of NOx from automotive combustion exhaust gases.

The present invention relates to a method for producing automobile exhaust gas catalytic converters, to the catalytic converters as such and to the use thereof. In particular, the method comprises a step which results, independently of the actual drying process, in the catalytically active material used being dried. The invention is especially used in the coating of wall-flow filters.

The present invention relates to a method for producing automobile exhaust gas catalytic converters, to the catalytic converters as such and to the use thereof. In particular, the method comprises a step which results in a smaller particle size of the catalytically active material used.

A particle filter for treating exhaust gases includes an SCR catalyst that, when in the presence of a reductant such as ammonia, promotes selective catalytic reduction of NO.sub.x; an active oxidation catalyst that promotes oxidation of hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide; and an oxygen storage catalyst that alternately stores and releases oxygen, enhances soot oxidation, and stores NOx at temperatures below optimal SCR functioning. The particle filter may be included in a system having an oxidation catalytic device (OCD) upstream of the particle filter, and optionally includes one or more SCR converters upstream and/or downstream of the particle filter, and/or an ammonia slip catalyst downstream of the particle filter. The system may further be adapted for operation under a high frequency injection fuel control with an OCD having substantial NOx storage material content, or an NSC for improving the efficiency tradeoffs between soot oxidation during filter regeneration and NO.sub.x reduction.

Catalyst and use of the catalyst comprising a molecular sieve belonging to the ABC-6 framework family with disorder in the ABC stacking sequence essentially composed of double-six-ring periodic building units and having a mole ratio of silicon oxide to aluminum oxide from about 8 to about 60.

A CHA-type zeolite has a molar ratio of silica to alumina of 10.0 or more and less than 20.0 and a molar ratio of silanol groups to silicon of 0.1510.sup.2 or more and 0.5010.sup.2 or less, a molar ratio of silica to alumina of 20.0 or more and 35.0 or less and a molar ratio of silanol groups to silicon of 0.1510.sup.2 or more and 1.1010.sup.2 or less, a molar ratio of silica to alumina of more than 35.0 and 45.0 or less and a molar ratio of silanol groups to silicon of 0.1510.sup.2 or more and 1.6510.sup.2 or less, or a molar ratio of silica to alumina of more than 45.0 and 55.0 or less and a molar ratio of silanol groups to silicon of 0.1510.sup.2 or more and 1.8010.sup.2 or less.

A work vehicle including a DPF system configured to collect particulate matter contained in exhaust gas from an engine; an SCR system configured to add, to the exhaust gas from the engine, a reductant stored in a reductant storage tank to reduce nitrogen oxide contained in the exhaust gas; and a control unit capable of executing a DPF renewal control whereby particulate matter collected and deposited in the DPF system is burned and removed by using the exhaust gas from the engine and an SCR reference operation restricting control to restrict an operating condition of the engine. The SCR reference operation restricting control is executed when an amount of the reductant stored in the reductant storage tank is a preset amount or less, or when an abnormality occurs in the SCR system. The control unit preferentially executes the DPF renewal control over the SCR reference operation restricting control.
