(9) NO-containing gas 1 was a prepared cylinder gas, with a NO content of 1000-5000 ppm;
(10) NO.sub.X content in the denitrated gas 2 was analyzed by the ultraviolet JNYQ-I-41 type gas analyzer manufactured by Xi'an Juneng Instrument Co., Ltd;
(11) O.sub.2 gas 3 was a cylinder gas of pure oxygen;
(12) O.sub.3 or free radical oxygen [O] generator 4 was self designed and manufactured, with an ionization area of 180 mm240 mm, a plate gap adjustment range of 0.1-2 mm, a frequency of high frequency power supply of 5.4 MHz, an output voltage of 0-3000V and an output power of 1 KW;
(13) O.sub.2 or O.sub.3 or free radical oxygen [O] or a mixture thereof 5 was a mixed gas of free radical oxygen [O], O.sub.3 and O.sub.2.
(14) Mixer 6 was a glass tube filled with wire packings;
(15) Catalytic oxidizer 7 was a glass absorption bottle filled with a catalyst such as potassium permanganate or the like;
(16) Denitration tower 8 was a glass absorption bottle, and lean liquid 9 denitration agent was a 15% NaOH aqueous solution;
(17) M(NO.sub.3).sub.n product precipitated by crystallization 16 was NaNO.sub.3.
(18) The operation method of the above apparatus was as follows: the flow rate of the NO-containing gas 1 was adjusted to 1 L/hr and stabilized; NO concentration as shown by the ultraviolet JNYQ-I-41 type gas analyzer was read as 1013 ppm; the flow rate of O.sub.2 gas 3 through the O.sub.3 or free radical oxygen [O] generator 4 was adjusted, and after mixing in the mixer 6, the total flow rate was stabilized to be 1.2 L/hr (that is, the flow rate of O.sub.2 was 0.2 L/hr); NO concentration read from that shown by the ultraviolet JNYQ-I-41 type gas analyzer was stabilized substantially between 780-830 ppm, and then the following tests were carried out:
(19) 1. When the O.sub.3 or free radical oxygen [O] generator 4 was not powered, and O.sub.3 or free radical oxygen [O] was not available, the mixed gas was first passed through the glass absorption bottle working as the catalytic oxidizer 7 (filled with potassium permanganate), and then passed through the glass absorption bottle working as the denitration tower 8 (filled with a 15% NaOH aqueous solution); NO concentration read from that shown by the ultraviolet JNYQ-I-41 type gas analyzer was stabilized substantially between 50-60 ppm, and the denitration efficiency was 92% to 95%.
(20) 2. When the O.sub.3 or free radical oxygen [O] generator 4 was not powered, and the gas component supplied by the O.sub.3 or free radical oxygen [O] generator 4 was O.sub.2 with a concentration of 100%, the mixed gas was first passed through the glass absorption bottle working as the catalytic oxidizer 7 (but the glass absorption bottle was not filled with any catalyst), and then passed through the glass absorption bottle working as the denitration tower 8 (filled with a 15% NaOH aqueous solution); NO concentration read from that shown by the ultraviolet JNYQ-I-41 type gas analyzer was stabilized substantially between 850-950 ppm, and the denitration efficiency was 6% to 16%.
(21) 3. When the O.sub.3 or free radical oxygen [O] generator 4 was powered, and when the gas components supplied by the O.sub.3 or free radical oxygen [O] generator 4 were O.sub.3 with a concentration of 10% and O.sub.2 with a concentration of 90%, the mixed gas was first passed through the glass absorption bottle working as the catalytic oxidizer 7 (but the glass absorption bottle was not filled with any catalyst), and then passed through the glass absorption bottle working as the denitration tower 8 (filled with a 15% NaOH aqueous solution); NO concentration read from that as shown by the ultraviolet JNYQ-I-41 type gas analyzer wasstabilized substantially between 500-600 ppm, and the denitration efficiency was 40.8% to 51%.
(22) 4. When the O.sub.3 or free radical oxygen [O] generator 4 was powered, and the gas components supplied by the O.sub.3 or free radical oxygen [O] generator 4 were [O] with a concentration of 3% and O.sub.2 with a concentration of 97%, the mixed gas was first passed through the glass absorption bottle working as the catalytic oxidizer 7 (but the glass absorption bottle was not filled with any catalyst), and then passed through the glass absorption bottle working as the denitration tower 8 (filled with a 15% NaOH aqueous solution); NO concentration read from that as shown by the ultraviolet JNYQ-I-41 type gas analyzer was stabilized substantially between 20-40 ppm, and the denitration efficiency was 96% to 98%.
(23) 5. When the O.sub.3 or free radical oxygen [O] generator 4 was powered, and the gas components supplied by the O.sub.3 or free radical oxygen [O] generator 4 were [O] with a concentration of 3% and O.sub.2 with a concentration of 97%, the mixed gas was first passed through the glass absorption bottle working as the catalytic oxidizer 7 (the glass absorption bottle was filled with potassium permanganate), and then passed through the glass absorption bottle working as the denitration tower 8 (filled with a 15% NaOH aqueous solution); NO concentration read from that shown by the ultraviolet JNYQ-I-41 type gas analyzer was stabilized substantially between 0-5 ppm, and the denitration efficiency was 99.5% to 100%.
(24) From the above tests, it can be seen that when free radical oxygen [O] and potassium permanganate are used for co-catalytic oxidation, the denitration effect is the best, and the denitration rate is 99.5%-100%; slightly inferior is the use of free radical oxygen [O] alone for oxidation, the denitration effect is slightly inferior, and the denitration rate is 96%-98%; more inferior is the use of potassium permanganate alone for co-catalytic oxidation, the denitration effect is more inferior, and the denitration rate is 92% to 95%; even more inferior is the use of O.sub.3 alone for oxidation, the denitration effect is even more inferior, and the denitration rate is 40.8%-51%; and when O.sub.2 is used alone for oxidation, the effect is the most inferior, and the denitration rate is only 6%-16%.
