Multi-effect group Pt-Rh-Pd alloy gauzes used in ammonia oxidation apparatus

摘要:

In the industrial production of nitric acid by oxidation of ammonia over multi-effect group Pt-Rh-Pd alloy gauzes catalysts the division of ammonia oxidation zone, knitting structure, components, oxidation rate and the principle of a gauze pack has prompted a number of investigations into their behavior. This paper reports on a survey of surface structure of individual gauzes in multi-effect group Pt-Rh-Pd alloy gauzes by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and EDS analysis and offers some indications towards the choice of gauze weight and economic effects.
