E. Hums, IS ADVANCED SCR TECHNOLOGY AT A STANDSTILL - A PROVOCATION FOR THE ACADEMIC COMMUNITY AND CATALYST MANUFACTURERS, Catalysis today, 42(1-2), 1998, pp. 25-35
Despite extensive contributions to the literature since 1975 regarding
selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalysis with ammonia for NOx re
moval from combustion gases, there is still on-going, controversial di
scussion in academia concerning both catalytically active sites in the
SCR mechanism and deactivation phenomena with regard to practical SCR
applications. New developments such as SCR of NOx by hydrocarbons are
still thwarted by problems relating to the development of suitable ma
terials. Efforts to replace SCR technology by selective catalytic deco
mposition (SCD) for NO remain confused in both theory and experiment.
