Reduction of nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions from ships due to environmental pollution and greenhouse gas impact has been made obligatory by regulations introduced by the International Maritime Organization (IMO). Basically, NOx emission control mechanisms are divided into primary methods and aftertreatment methods. After-treatment methods focus on reducing NOx emissions from the exhaust gas by various methods. In this study, the efficiency of the urea transformation for different exhaust temperature values for a modelled Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system has been investigated numerically. As a result of numerical model, isocyanic acid, temperature, urea and ammonia values have been determined for Urea-Water Solutions (UWS) process values. The study has been calculated by the computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The numerical results obtained were confirmed by experimental studies from the literature.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
