A numerical study on the oxidation removal of nitric oxide in a ceramic hollow fiber membrane contactor was performed. To represent the transport and absorption process, the model was created by combining multiphase, species, reaction, and porous models. The numerical results were verified by comparing them with experimental data. The tube and lumen sides both have laminar parabolic velocity distributions. The nitric oxide concentration decreases gradually from the membrane wall to axis at the cross-section except on the inner and outer sides of the membrane tube. The equivalent diffusion length was proved useful for evaluating the entrance effect. At low concentrations, the reduction efficiency was proportional to the absorbent concentration, and at large concentrations, it neared a maximum value. The reduction efficiency was positively affected by elevated operating temperature and pressure. With a gas channel width of 13 mm, the reduction flow rate achieves its maximum. The efficiency of NO reduction per area decreases as the effective membrane length increases. Increasing the operating temperature and membrane length are recommended as design priorities due to high relative enhancements. It is not recommended to improve reduction efficiency by increasing membrane tube diameter and operating pressure in design. Changing the gas flow rate, absorbent concentration and gas channel width are moderate recommended as well.
