“…Emissions of carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrous oxide (N 2 O) may also occur (Kupper and Brentrup, 1992). There are opposing studies in the literature about the roles of these last two gases in the N 2 O formation/reduction: some laboratory studies show how at low temperature they could be the cause of N 2 O emissions (de Soete, 1993;Kramlich and Linak, 1994), but other field studies demonstrated their efficiency as reduction system (Takeshita et al, 1993). SNCR is better suited for applications with high levels of particulate matter in the waste gas stream than SCR, and it is applied in the cement industry.…”

Nitrous oxide (N 2 O) is the third most important greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide and methane, and contributes about 6% to the greenhouse effect. Nitrous oxide is a minor component of the atmosphere, and it is a thousand times less than carbon dioxide (CO 2 ). Nevertheless, it is much more potent than CO 2 and methane, owing to its long stay in the atmosphere of approximately 120 yr and the high global warming potential (GWP) of 298 times that of Implications: N 2 O may arise as an unwanted by-product of nitrogen oxide (NO x ) abatement systems, in particular selective noncatalytic reduction (SNCR). Since it is applied in the cement plants, N 2 O emission from cement industry is evaluated, with both FTIR and NDIR instrument. Several considerations emerged from the results. First of all, the emission from this industrial sector is not negligible, and for that reason N 2 O concentration should be regulated; another observation is that the reference method based on the NDIR technique is not as selective as FTIR could be.

“…Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a compound that during the last decade has been recognized as a potential contributor to the destruction of the ozone in the stratosphere and acknowledged as a relatively strong greenhouse gas [261,262]. The continuous increase of its concentration, both due to natural and anthropogenic sources (adipic acid production, nitric acid production, fossil fuels, biomass burning) and longer atmospheric residence time (150 years), entails the need of developing efficient catalysts for its decomposition (into nitrogen and oxygen).…”

In this review article various applications and preparation methods of copper chromite catalysts have been discussed. While discussing it is concluded that copper chromite is a versatile catalyst which not only catalyses numerous processes of commercial importance and national program related to defence and space research but also finds applications in the most concerned problem worldwide i.e. environmental pollution control. Several other very useful applications of copper chromite catalysts are in production of clean energy, drugs and agro chemicals, etc. Various preparation methods about 15 have been discussed which depicts clear idea about the dependence of catalytic activity and selectivity on way of preparation of catalyst. In view of the globally increasing interest towards copper chromite catalysis, reexamination on the important applications of such catalysts and their useful preparation methods is thus the need of the time. This review paper encloses 369 references including a well-conceivable tabulation of the newer state of the art.

“…The chemistry is complex and not fully understood. However, surface catalysis involving the fly ash particulates is involved (Kramlich and Linak, 1994;Pels et al, 1995). The discharge of nitrogen oxides to the atmosphere is undesirable, because NO contributes to ozone destruction in the stratosphere, to ozone pollution in the lower atmosphere, and to the formation of acid rain (Carlin, 2002).…”

“…N 2 O is a greenhouse gas, which is about 270 times more effective than CO 2 in causing global warming. In the stratosphere, it reacts with atomic oxygen to form NO, which, in turn contributes to ozone destruction (Kramlich and Linak, 1994).…”
