摘要：

Energy demand and production have raised vast amounts of pollutants such as NO_x and other harmful components. These are emitted daily from various industrial processes including stationary and non-stationary sources, i.e. automotive engines, industrial boilers and power plants. This article reports on an experimental investigation of the conversion levels for NO decomposition over Cu-ZSM5(158) catalyst using electrical heating element reactor. This was achieved by passing a stream containing 1% NO and 99% He, through the reactor, and then measuring the concentration of the stream exiting the reactor. The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the conversion calculation process at various temperatures and contact times. This included the applicability of first order kinetics, i.e. whether the system followed the Arrhenius temperature relationship by calculating and plotting the equilibrium constants at each reaction temperature.
