Method for preparing noble metal-supported zeolite catalyst for catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxide

摘要

The present invention provides a method for preparing a catalyst for the reduction of nitrogen oxides by the use of natural gas as a reducing agent in an excess oxygen atmosphere, which comprises of filling zeolite with an organic compound having molecular weight of 100~250 prior to loading catalytically active noble metal components on a zeolite. Since the method according to the present invention supports catalytic active noble metal components on a zeolite under the condition that the pores of zeolite are filled with organic compounds, the noble metal component, which is essential for forming highly active NOx reduction catalyst, can be supported precisely on the desired positions of zeolite pores. Therefore, the NOx reduction catalysts prepared by the present invention are very useful for the purification of exhaust gas in an excessive oxygen atmosphere such as gas turbines, boilers or lean-burn automobiles.
