Abstract From the Canadian patent

This invention relates to a technique for removing nitrogen oxides (NO x) present in exhaust gases discharged from boilers and the like. When the temperature of the exhaust gas is 100°C or below, a heat-treated active carbon produced by heat-treating a raw active carbon at 600 to 1,200'C in a non-oxidizing atmosphere so as to remove oxygen-containing functional groups present at the surfaces thereof and thereby reduce the atomic surface oxygen/surface carbon ratio to 0.05 or less is preferably used. When the temperature of the exhaust gas exceeds 100'C a heat-treated, active carbon produced by heat-treating a raw active carbon at 600 to 1,200°C in a non-oxidizing atmosphere and activating …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed September 24, 1996 and granted May 1, 2001. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended September 24, 2016.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by September 24, 2018.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
